and repeat as they take on the epic challenges and adventures
from the three games that started it all: Crash Bandicoot®,

generation is better than ever in a first-ever remaster of the
original trilogy: Crash Bandicoot, Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex
Strikes Back and Crash Bandicoot: Warped.
• Now in Face-Melting PS4 Pro HD – Crash Bandicoot® N. Sane
Trilogy has brand-new lighting, animations, and recreated

animations, visual effects and environmental details let players

some familiar voice actors who appear in Crash Bandicoot® N.

ORGINAL STORYLINES:
• Crash Bandicoot – Dr. Neo Cortex has a plan to take over the
world, and he wants to create genetically engineered animals to
do his bidding. To create his minions, Cortex kidnaps as many
animals as he can; Crash Bandicoot’s girlfriend just happens to
be one of his victims. Take control of Crash as he runs, jumps,
and spins through 30 levels of intense action on three different
Australian islands. Only you can help Crash save the animals,
save his girlfriend and foil Dr. Cortex’s plot.
• Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back – The evil Dr. Neo
Cortex is back…out this time to save the world? And he’s asking
for help from his arch nemesis, Crash Bandicoot? Is this just a
conniving plan to lure Crash into Cortex’s next dastardly
experiment? Can Crash win again or will he join Cortex’s
mindless zoo? Bigger free-roaming 3-D environments, all-new
animations and a whole host of colorful characters – watch as
our hero Crash, ice-skates, rodeo-rides a polar bear and
jet-packs through zero-gravity in the continuing adventures of
Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back – This time he ain’t
joking!
• Crash Bandicoot Warped – Oh yeah…he’s back…AND he’s ready!
It’s a Whole New Time-Traveling Adventure! All new-style
gameplay action – scuba dive, ride a motorcycle or a baby T-Rex
and go free-roaming airborne in a plane! Play as Coco! Gallop
along the Great Wall of China on a tiger, go extreme on a
jet-ski and other high-flying surprises! Prove your skills with
the new Super-charge Body Slam, Super Slide, Double Jump,
Death-Tornado Spin and a Laser-Guided Bazooka. All new enemies
include a new Big Boss, Uka Uka, N. Tropy, a menacing Dingodile
and of course, the return of some favorites like N. Gin and
