all time. (Graphic: Business Wire)
"Many people around the world (myself among them) count the
early Crash Bandicoot games as one of their most beloved gaming
experiences. So it has been an honor and a labor of love for all of
us at Activision to bring him into 2017, looking and playing better
than ever," said Eric Hirshberg, CEO of Activision. "Our team at
Vicarious Visions has done an amazing job giving players the Crash
they remember with all the benefits of the modern era.”
Starting today, fans can download the Crash Bandicoot
Comeback Speech Green Screen video. Featuring Crash
giving his comeback strong speech, fans can edit the footage to
create their own custom videos with the classic character. Some of
the best #CustomCrash content will be immortalized on
www.crashbandicoot.com.
“We’re so excited the day has finally come that Crash fans can
relive some of their favorite gaming memories with the Crash
Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy,” said Jennifer Oneal, studio head
for Vicarious Visions. “We’ve strived to make this AAA remaster a
fantastic experience for all gamers, whether a hardcore fan or
playing for the first time.”
Also available today is Music from Crash Bandicoot N.
Sane Trilogy. This all-new musical score, composed by Vicarious
Visions, was inspired by the original score by Mark Mothersbaugh
and Josh Mancell. Featuring 47 tracks, Music from Crash
Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy is available for streaming free,
initially via Spotify.
With more than 100 levels to explore, fans will enjoy seeing
their beloved ‘90s video game icons like never before in this fully
remastered game collection. Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy
takes advantage of PlayStation® 4 features and offers brand-new
lighting, animations, textures, models and recreated cinematics—all
in dazzling “N. Hanced Fur-K” and PS4 Pro HD.
For the first time, fans can enjoy seeing how they stack up
against their friends and other players around the world via online
leaderboards. Full analog stick support and a unified save system
and checkpoint system will make it easier for new fans to enjoy the
classic adventures, while improved bonus levels and time trials in
this epic trilogy will challenge the hardest of the ‘Coot core!
Also new in the Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy, players
can switch between playing as Crash or Coco at the press of a
button. Coco is a fully playable (and sassy) character across all
three games, and both characters have an N. Sane set of
special attacks – each with their own style!
Activision and Vicarious Visions are honoring the heritage of
Crash throughout the trilogy in a variety of ways, including a
fully remastered game soundtrack packed with all the didgeridoos,
xylophones and thumpin’ bass lines you can handle, as well as newly
recorded dialogue from some of the familiar voice actors who appear
in the original Crash Bandicoot games, including Jess Harnell, Lex
Lang and Debi Derryberry, among others.
Developed by Vicarious Visions, Crash Bandicoot N. Sane
Trilogy is available now on PS4™ and PS4™ Pro for the suggested
retail price of $39.99. For more information about Crash
Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy, please visit www.crashbandicoot.com
