Press kits were distributed with hints that a new Crash Bandicoot game would be revealed at The Game Awards. This announcement will compare to how Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time and Crash Team Racing: Nitro-Fueled were made public.
It’s About Time will be available on Steam on October 18, according to the press kits that have been distributed, which were shown on a video uploaded by Canadian Guy Eh on YouTube. While it is thrilling enough to now have news about Crash after such a long time, the press kit also hints that a new Crash Bandicoot game is likely to be revealed at The Game Awards on December 8.
Guy Eh, who hails from Canada, displayed the parcel that he had received, which contained a pizza box with an Aku-Aku motif and a name that translated to “Aku-Steam-In Aku’s Pizza Shack.” This was a reference to the fact that It’s About Time would soon be available on Steam. Hungry for more? It says on a sticker stuck to the box’s side. You can get a slice of our brand-new Wumpa Pizza for $12.08.
Two rather apparent indicators as to what is being teased here are the pricing of the pizza, as well as the name of the pie. To begin, the number 12.08 is unmistakably a reference to December 8, the day that the Game Awards showcase will take place this year. In addition, the game in an issue that will be disclosed is the long-rumored Wumpa League, which is also strongly suggested by the name of the pizza shop in question, Wumpa Pizza.
For those who aren’t informed, Wumpa League is rumored to be a multiplayer spin on Crash Bandicoot in which you and other players compete to gain Wumpa throughout a map. Again, for those who don’t know, this is essential information.
