Recent reports have suggested that a brand new Crash Bandicoot game is being launched next year.

Members of the development team have spoken on the subject before, telling Express Online: “Obviously we’re fans. Everybody wants to see a new Crash game.

“I’m onside with everybody else. We’d love to see as much Crash as possible. It’s really cool that he’s really making a comeback right now.”

It seems almost a certainty that a new Crash Bandicoot release is set for the future, especially considering the buzz created by the remake.

While Activision have made no commitment either way, it seems likely that a new game will be announced at E3 2018.
