Sierra Entertainment has officially announced that the Crash Bandicoot franchise is indeed next-gen bound. The newest upcoming installment in the franchise, entitled Crash of the Titans, will be hitting all next-gen platforms this fall.
More details on the game:
<em>The action game will once again pit the orange marsupial against Neo and Nina Cortex as players will be allowed to "hijack" the minds enemies in order to control them against other opponents.
On top of this, the game will also introduce a variety of new gameplay elements to the series, including an “acrobatic fighting system” wherein players will be able to string together combinations of attacks, combos, and counters. The upcoming title will also feature co-op support, allowing a second player to join the game at any time to play as “Carbon-Crash.”
The character Crash was originally created by developer Naughty Dog, and made his North American debut in 1996 with the aptly named Crash Bandicoot for the PlayStation. The franchise has since went on to be handled by a variety of different development studios, and has spawned several sequels and spin off releases, including Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back, Crash Team Racing, and the more recently released Crash Boom Bang! for the Nintendo DS. </em>
