Crash Bandicoot N-Sane Trilogy is coming to PC later this year

  • 15

By all reports, Activision's Crash Bandicoot remakes sold astonishingly well when they released exclusively for PS4 last year. The package collected the first three Crash Bandicoot games, with each built from scratch but completely in-keeping with the original design. After a year of Sony exclusivity, Activision announced today that the collection will hit PC on July 10, as well as Xbox One and Nintendo Switch.

Rumours suggest that the success of Crash Bandicoot: N-Sane Trilogy has prompted Activision to take the mascot a bit more seriously. According to Crash Bandicoot fansite crashmania.net, a merchandise company let slip that a brand new Crash game will release in 2019, and that Activision has a "five-year plan" for the furry, um, bandicoot. 

Whatever the case, your mileage will vary depending on the power of your nostalgic impulses, and your patience for the game's rather antiquated 3D platforming design. In her review on our sister site Gamesradar, Louis Blain wrote that the remakes were "gorgeous, and a clear labour of love, but the controls might drive you, err, N. Sane."

Here's a trailer:

Hmm, maybe I'm wrong, but I do not think it's going to sell in PC as well as on consoles, but it's good to see some exclusive console games coming to the PC without the need for an emulator.

I'm with you here, but we'll see.

Is it just me or does he look oddly off and creepy in the trailer (in the still image a lot more so than in motion)? Something about the textures, I think. Like some nightmare muppet. Maybe I just need more coffee....

Great news. As a fan of PCs I'm always happy when we see exclusive games from consoles.

I think that's due to the eyeballs, they have put them in a way that Crash seems a mad scientist hahaha.
