Crash Bandicoot Is Back, Baby!
The Crash Bandicoot series is a fan-favorite platforming franchise developed by Naughty Dog. Despite being a massive gaming icon and having shaped a large chunk of the developer’s credit, as well as heavily influencing video games ever since its original release practically launched a console and reinvigorated the platforming genre by raising it up to modern standards, Crash Bandicoot has been noticeably absent the past few years.
Everyone’s favorite marsupial has (rather unsuccessfully) hopped between developers and platforms, but all of that seems to be behind us now. Crash returns exclusively to the PlayStation 4, with Naughty Dog bringing the three original titles back as remasters in the Crash Bandicoot N.Sane Trilogy re-release.
Featuring modern visuals, all three games are rebuilt from the ground up on the same engine as Skylanders: Imaginators. The Crash Bandicoot N.Sane Trilogy is slated for a 2017 release.
