A Crash Team Racing Remake may be announced at The Game Awards 2018 (Update: Eurogamer confirms)

[stinkyguy666]

So recently there was a 4Chan Leak that made its way around the Crash Bandicoot fandom:

Spoiler: 4chan CTR leak

4Chan leaks are usually fake 99.99999% of the time but this one was interesting for implying that the reveal would be on December 6th (Game Awards).

Around this time, Activision have also started to send "Crashmas" cookies to random internet personalities:


This is not far off from how Spyro Reignited was teased, with "Falcon McBob" sending Dragon eggs to various internet personalities.

This one's the clincher for me:




"HEY!!! NICE DICE!! YOU GOT THESE IN ORANGE?"

Looks like Crash is getting his ass in gear on December 6th.


MOD EDIT: Eurogamer weights in

Woah!!

 

[HardRojo]

Oh shit! Please be true!

 

[ILikeFeet]

for everything but switch and PC

 

[DarkChronic]

I'd be down for this. Would have a preferred *ahem* a NEW Crash game, but you know, I'll take this.

 

[TheBaldwin]

Be still my beating heart

 

[Silky]

SEE MY RIPPER ROO ON HOT AIR SKYWAY ANY DAY OF THE FUCKING WEEK

 

[Servbot24]

That would be a true megaton.

 

[Motwera]

Here's the interesting bit: It seems that only PlayStation employees/HQs are receiving the Fluffy Dice so far, the one embedded in the OT and this one from Germany

 

[Saint-14]

Is Europe ready though?

Sony owns the game, this would be an exclusive (probably timed) or they worked something out with them.

Oh no.

 

[Silky]

KOMODO MINES ONLY
HOT AIR ONLY
COCO PARK ONLY
PAPUS PYRAMID ONLY

NO MORE BAD KART RACERS GOOD GOD THE GOD IS BACK

 

[Masagiwa]

The only Crash game I cared about

 

[Dark Cloud]

Crash Racing was one of my predictions for Game Awards lol

 

[Detective Loki]

Should be DLC or an update to the game

 

[tommy7154]

Wow sounds like it's near confirmed. Never played CTR but would gladly pick up a new one or remake.

 

[louisacommie]

I'd rather it be a new game in the same style with new tracks but also bringing back old tracks Mario kart style

 

[Danzflor]

Glad to see the reports that came months ago are finally coming out true.

 

[Motwera]

Oh no.

Click to shrink...

I don't think it will be PS exclusive, although marketing is likely PS-focused

 

[Cyprinodon Martius]

Oh please be true!

Also, I hope the roster is made bigger. Add in Tawna, Komodo Moe, N. Brio, Koala Kong, etc. I remember was always strangely annoyed at only having one of the Komodo Bros in the game.

[Playsage]

*starts crying of joy*
There's two ways this should work:
- Make a perfect copy of the CTR's driving feel
- Make turbo mechanics even more broken

 

[Deleted member 864]

Please be true.

 

[Hope]

Let's see if Sony is dumb enough to give their property away.

 

[Psychonaut]

Oh my God yes. I didn't think Mario Kart 8 Deluxe could be dethroned this soon, but now its seems possible.

 

[Silky]

Let's see if Sony is dumb enough to give their property away.

lol

 

[Napalm_Frank]

Start your engines, bois.

 

[Bear]

I didn't know people were so thirsty for a remake of this game.

 

[GIANKRATOS]

 

[Deleted member 2809]

Will it still have babby's first mini turbo ?

 

[KenobiLTS]

Take my bloody money right now

 

[Rodjer]

Let's see if Sony is dumb enough to give their property away.

Crash is indeed their property lol

 

[SNRUB]

Not that 4chan means anything because lol 4chan but there was a guy that claimed CTR will make it's premiere there:

[tapedeck]

Oh man..if they keep the exact same mechanics and give it the N. Sane Trilogy graphics treatment..be still my heart.

 

[Deleted member 135]

Must have splitscreen and online MP.

 

[Qudi]

Dont play with my emotions man.

 

[Mandos]

After n sane trilogy's success hopefullythis would make it to switch day one.

 

[Deleted member 42686]

Dear oh dear, please be true!

 

[AcademicSaucer]

Sony owns the game, this would be an exclusive (probably timed) or they worked something out with them.

Click to shrink...

Do they? Isnt it all Activision now? back in the day the owner was Universal right?

 

[disgraciau]

I'm buying it SO MUCH!

 

[IIFloodyII]

Please be true.
Though Isn't Crash Team Racing unique in that Sony still own it?

 

[Deleted member 36708]

If true enjoy guys.

 

[Hope]

Crash is indeed their property lol

I know but I have a feeling that's not longer the case and Activion can freely do anything with CTR.

 

[Tizoc]

It'll launch first on PS4 at least. If anything, the title might be changed as IIRC, CTR name is owned by Sony?

 

[Dark Cloud]

Eurogamer understands this is the real deal.

 

[Spinky]

Fuckin'

NICE.

I would much rather have a new game, but can't really complain when I'm drowning in Crash.

 

[Rodjer]

Ehm, i was saying the opposite with the "lol" at the end.
Crash is Activision now, CTR might be PS exclusive for 1 year tho

 

[ghostcrew]

Should be DLC or an update to the game

Click to shrink...

DLC or an update to what? The Crash Trilogy? CTR is a completely different game. That's like saying Mario Kart 8 should be DLC to Mario Odyssey.

 

[Napalm_Frank]

I didn't know people were so thirsty for a remake of this game.

It's the best game mady by Naughty Dog to date.

 

[criteriondog]

I hope so!! An online CTR remake would be a dream come true!
