Crash Bandicoot is living a second youth. After the release of the remastered versions for Xbox One, PS4 and Nintendo Switch, the famous marsupial will once again come to mobile. But it will do so with a completely new title inspired by the original versions, with controls and gameplay specially designed for mobile devices.
From Candy Crush to Crash Bandicoot
The game has been developed by King, the creators of Candy Crush, and proposes a vertical design with a continuous run in the Temple Run style. It is certainly a system that fits like a glove in the style of Crash Bandicoot, especially if we remember the first level of the original PlayStation Crash Bandicoot.

The title is not official at the moment, however, it has been made known through advertising channels launched in Brazil, the place where King usually does the first tests of his games. Through Facebook, the company has been promoting a series of surveys in Brazil that pointed to a mobile version of Crash Bandicoot.
En crashynews They decided to investigate more about it, and they discovered that the game existed, or at least the name, being able to see later some screenshots of it through the information sheet of the store. In these screenshots you can see how the game will have the classic vertical perspective of the games endless runner (similar to Temple Run or Sonic Dash).
Re:Crash Mobile Game
King ran ads that were focused on Brazil (Brazil and other parts of South America are popular for regional testing with King/other mobile games) and ran on Facebook in the Holiday season. They were just called "Crash Bandicoot Mobile". (1/4)

This Crash Bandicoot would be the return of the marsupial to mobile phones since Crash Bandicoot Nitro Kart 2 was released on iOS, and considering that the development is in the hands of King, there is no doubt that the game will be of quality, tremendously addictive and that will have purchases within the application to get the rooms to the users.
When will it be available to download?
For now we will have to be patient, since it seems that the game will not be ready until the end of the year. These first tests serve to probe the ground, but the official launch of the application will not be for a few months, so do not expect to be running at full speed to hunt down Neo Cortex soon.
