Crash Bandicoot 4 arrived to critical acclaim several months ago, but launched prior the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series consoles. Fortunately the development team at Toys for Bob have been working on enhancements.
The next-gen updates will launch on March 12th for $59.99 and include the following:
- Shorter load times
- 4K/60fps gameplay
- Prior owners receive the upgrade for free and will be able to transfer their save data
- Additionally, the PS5 version will make use of the DualSense’s adaptive triggers
The title will also launch on Switch and PC (via Battle.net) on the same date for $39.99.
Our Take
We certainly hope more players pick up Crash Bandicoot 4 given its quality and the need for more AAA platformers in the current industry. Though we are a little surprised that the game will retail for $59.99 again for new copies.
