We knew that the new installment of Crash Bandicoot It had to show up sooner or later, and that's exactly what happened, since Activision's new game will hit stores on October 2 with all these new features.
Controlling time
As it had been rumored, the appearance of the new quantum masks will bring us some effects over time as reflected in the name of the game "It's about time", so the presentation video has completely cleared up our doubts. As we can well see in the presentation trailer, the fourth part of the marsupial will offer an aesthetic very similar to the original, with platform levels that will develop both horizontally and in depth, something that especially characterized the original Crash Bandicoot.
In this new adventure we will take control of both Crash and his partner Coco, and throughout the different levels we will unlock different masks with which we will be able to take advantage of their powers to take control of time and space in order to complete the challenges let it come before us.
Only for PS4, Xbox One and Xbox Series X?
At the moment these are the only three platforms that the game will officially reach, so we will have to wait for future announcements and see how the market responds to this new installment to find out if it will actually land on other platforms such as PS5. , PC and Switch.
It is important to mention that when the remake of Spyro The Dragon arrived on PS4 and Xbox One, Nintendo Switch was left out of the first release, and it was not until a year later that the Nintendo console received its corresponding version. This makes all the more sense if we take into account that the Crash Bandicoot 4 development team is the same as the Spyro development team, so they probably manage the same timing and the same business strategy.
Before such doubts, Activision itself wanted to cast a halo of hope for the future, since in statements to PCGamesN, They have confirmed that they do not rule out adding future platforms in the future. The most interesting thing about it is that Xbox Series X appears as a compatible platform from the beginning, possibly thanks to the function of backwards compatibility on Xbox Series X, something about which PS5 must offer more details in this regard.
See offer on AmazonAccording to Activision, we could receive more information about it soon, so it may have something to do with a future announcement from Sony with some type of backward compatibility function for its console. The brand has already announced that a large part of the PS4 games can be played on PS5, but perhaps they still have something more to tell us.
For now, all we can do is reserve a unit of the game to receive it as soon as possible when the next game goes on sale. October 2.
