A new report claims a brand-new Crash Bandicoot game has been greenlit. While nothing has been officially confirmed, the source behind the rumour has previously leaked accurate information regarding the recently announced Spyro title.
Crash Bandicoot fans may have a reason to get excited.
According to a new report circulating online, a brand-new Crash Bandicoot game has reportedly been greenlit and is now in development. While Activision and Xbox have yet to make any official announcement, the rumour has gained traction thanks to the source behind it.
The leak comes from the same insider who reportedly revealed details about the recently announced Spyro game just one day before it became official. As a result, many fans are treating the claim more seriously than the average gaming rumour.
Of course, until an official reveal arrives, it's still worth approaching the information with caution.
Even so, the timing would make a lot of sense.
Over the last few years, the gaming industry has seen a renewed interest in classic franchises. Series that once seemed dormant are finding new life through remasters, remakes, reboots, and entirely new entries.
Spyro has returned, Rayman appears to be making a comeback, and Nintendo recently surprised fans by bringing back Star Fox.
Crash Bandicoot has already proven that there's still strong interest in the franchise. Releases such as the N. Sane Trilogy, Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled, and Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time demonstrated that the iconic marsupial remains one of gaming's most recognisable mascots.
That's why many fans believe another major entry feels less like a question of if and more a question of when.
For now, details about the rumoured project remain scarce. No platform information, release window, or gameplay details have been revealed, and neither Xbox nor Activision has commented publicly on the reports.
Despite the lack of official details, speculation around the future of the franchise continues to grow.
Still, with one successful leak already attached to the source, Crash fans may want to keep a close eye on upcoming gaming showcases.
After all, if the last few years have taught us anything, it's that gaming's biggest icons rarely stay away forever.
Keep Calm and waka waka...
