Rumor: ATVI's 5-year plan for Crash includes N.Sane Trilogy on Switch/PC, New Game in 2019
- Thread starter Wrestleman
- Start date
Isn't it strange that the Switch cover already have the PEGI symbol? I don't actually know, I'm just asking but I thought that, even though it will be obviously 7+, they should wait for the official decision of PEGI.
Anyway, looking forward to getting Crash for Switch. When I was a child I spent so much time on Crash 3.
I already made a thread but it got locked only because apparently XtraLife has a history of putting up even rumored games up.

Funny thing is... I think they literally used my mock-up and just replaced the ESRB logo with a PEGI logo:

See the Switch logo and the Activision logo and their exact placements in relation to the parts of the box if you look closely enough? Hmm...

From the Toy Fair apparently. Looks like it's behind glass so it's an actual thing they did? Hmm...

You can see where they used the Photoshop Clone Tool to (badly) erase the ESRB logo and part of the podium if you zoom in:

Yep, caught that also. I mean there's now a "shadow" where there wasn't in the actual artwork! lol
Edit: Oh shit I didn't see the podium bit until you mentioned it! LOL
There are screens/renders for this out where they used a XboxOne controller...
The one in the back weeks to be a Switch holder only while the others probably hold regular controllers.
Is Crash a good game, even as somebody who has no nostalgia for the series? Unsure whether to be excited for this or not on Switch.
If I had a guess, Acti's plan is to probably alternate Crash & Spyro year over year so neither of them stagnate or burn out. So for them to handle preproduction on Crash 2019 and full production on Spyro is possibly doable.

VV is like, 200 people, and only 60ish of them worked on N.Sane, and while they were doing that, a good chunk of that team double-dutied as backup on Skylanders Imaginators and the Crash Action Pack expansion for that game. They could probably handle both, especially as the need for them to have a large Destiny team dials back.
Yes, Crash 2 specifically is a great game. Crash 3 has a special place in my heart despite way too many vehicle levels.
We have to understand that this listing (that just got removed, shocking I know) is explicitly a placeholder based on the whole thing that this thread is about, as well as their (XtraLife) assumption and hopes of a Nintendo Direct coming around this month or later.
Ah didn't realize they were that big! It would be awesome if we got both games then!
Hadn't a bunch of stores also put up some listings for an Xbox One version of the game last year, back when there were rumors of it being released in December?
I'm not sure if store listings like this are very reliable...
Yep, they did the same thing in regards to Bayonetta for XB1 and PS4 and Ni No Kuni 2 coming to XB1 too.
Marcus Sellars, so take with a huge pinch of salt, but:
Would suggest an Activision announcement regarding Crash at 3PM PT (23:00 GMT) today. Well, not long to know whether he's totally full of shit or not anyway.

Really depends on what you like from platformers. In my opinion, yes - god, yes, especially Crash 1 and 2. The level design is excellent and 100%ing them is a challenging, thoughtful experience that requires a lot of skill. Crash 3 I'm less keen on, but we're talking 8/10 rather than 9/10 here. I use the whole scale so 5 is "average".
Crash probably, but i dont think Activision will reveal the next COD during a Nintendo Direct.
Don't you mean "full of Switch" eh eh ;)
Really hope it is si de I would buy it for Switch in a heartbeat!
Lol, Markus needs to stop. He's taking rumors from other people and using it for himself if both Crash and COD get shown in the Direct then he will be like "See? I told you I have inside info".
They dont have to reveal it there - "CoD coming to Switch this year as well" is all they need.
Nintendo Direct is at 2PM PT so different time. Not that I believe anything Marcus is saying.
What he was saying is that there are going to be announcements for these games today, and they won't be made at the Direct. That's why they're at different times.
He's saying there will be an official announcement of BLOPS IIII today at 10AM PST (which is several hours before the Direct) and an announcement for Crash at 3PM PST (which should be a little bit after the Direct)
So, BLOPS IIII will be announced on its own and if there is a Switch version don't expect more than a small blurb about it on the Direct. Crash will probably be announced at the Direct and then other possible platforms announced after the Direct similar to how Dark Souls Remastered was handled
Kind of insane that today is like a mini E3 lol.
And this too.
Would be ace if Crash manages to sell on Switch and XB1/PC if that's a thing. I want my boy established so deep on all possible platforms that he never has to retire again. Hopefully Acti has learned from their past mistakes, I'm really curious to see how the 2019 Crash game looks unless it's CTR of course.
if there is, it's not because Marcus has insider info. the dude piggy backs off of known info and passes it off as his own, he tweets shit from random people who DMs him stuff, and deletes anything he gets wrong and lies about it
nigga's full of shit
That Black Ops thing is probably happening... Charlie Intel is hyping it up the last couple of hours...
Thanks for the review! I'm definitely going to do some deeper research on the series now.

This hour can't move by quick enough. I've got Bandicoot fever.
Sellars aside, we've got better hints at Crash today from other places.
