Whoa! Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time Has Sold More Than 5 Million Copies | Push Square
19.04.2024 - 05:31 / pushsquare.com
It seems Toys for Bob's warmly received Crash Bandicoot sequel has been a huge success. Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time, the first numbered sequel in the series since 1998's Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped, has sold over five million copies, according to the studio's design director, Toby Schadt.
It's About Time is a return to the franchise's roots, focusing on challenging platforming, diverse level design, and a colourful cast of characters. Following the successful revival of the brand with Vicarious Visions' N. Sane Trilogy, this is a fresh, modern spin on a beloved formula. Schadt recently changed the sales number on his LinkedIn page, suggesting the five million milestone was crossed not too long ago.
The multiplayer spin-off Crash Team Rumble doesn't seem to have moved the needle nearly as much, as its sales are not disclosed on the same page. That'll be Toys for Bob's last mark on the franchise in any case, as the team recently split from Activision to become an independent studio. It's reportedly working with Microsoft on its next project.

Its crazy that ABK folded them in to COD and Xbox was gonna shut them down if not spun out
N.i.c.e. crash bandicoot n sane trilogy is a excellent video games remake.and crash bandicoot 4 its about time is a another excellent game.word up son
That is surprising. It didn’t seem like a game that lit the world on fire at the time. I think I even have it in my library from PS+ and have never even considered downloading it.
@Th3solution I remember when the N. Sane Trilogy (remakes of Crash 1-3) came out, it was on the best selling charts for a long time — and a quick trip to Wikipedia confirms that it sold 10 million copies. It was the reason why Crash 4 was developed, and 5 million sounds believable with that taken into account.
It sounds surprising to us because we’re either not into that genre of games — and thus not paying much attention to them — or the fact that it took 3 years to reach that number. It’s probably a hit with children getting their first PlayStation, and probably found in bargain bins these days.
It's about time it sold so many copies
It's not bad but, in my opinion, its not at the original trilogy level
Excellent to see quality platformers that aren’t
