Crash Bandicoot‘s next game will be revealed at The Game Awards 2022. There has been no definitive evidence one way or the other, but there are strong indications that it is not the case. There have been some exciting speculations about which Crash Bandicoot game Activision will announce, but that is probably less of a mystery. Crash Bandicoot fans will have a banner year in 2022.

The next installment in the Crash Bandicoot series was hinted at in a completely unrelated press release. Activision sent out special gift packages to influential people they knew to be avid players of the Crash Bandicoot series. The receipt on the pizza box-shaped package stated that the October 18 Steam release of Crash Bandicoot 4 was confirmed.

Although Crash Bandicoot 4 has been playable on Activision Blizzard’s Battle.net, a Steam release is expected to make it playable for a larger audience of PC players who prefer the Steam shop.

Specifically, the side of the pizza boxes for Crash Bandicoot 4 is where the action is. Continuing with the message reading, “Tired of waiting? You can get a slice of our new Wumpa Pizza for $12.08 right now, “similarly exist as well. Many people think that $12.08 is a play on the date December 8, when The Game Awards will be held in the year 2022. Again, there is no overt reference to a game announcement, but that is the plain inference of the message.

What Activision will announce next has Crash Bandicoot fans guessing. Although there is no game with the name “Wumpa Pizza,” this could be a hint. Wumpa League has been spoken about for a while now as a free-to-play Crash Bandicoot party game in the vein of Fall Guys. So Wumpa Pizza may be a clue at Wumpa League, but it’s optional.
