The Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy Looks To Be Headed To Xbox Game Pass

WOAH!

Following on today’s launch of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 into the Game Pass library (and the first of what will undoubtedly be many Call of Duty titles), it seems that another title from the stable of Microsoft’s recently-acquired publisher could be headed to the service very shortly.

That’s according to leaker “eXtas1s,” who previously and correctly reported that COD:MW3 was headed to Game Pass, and who at the same time was also predicting that subscribers would soon get the Crash Bandicoot N.Sane Trilogy. Now, they’ve doubled down on that prediction, going as far as claiming an August 8th release date for the 2017 trio of top-down remasters of Crash Bandicoot classics.

While this is obviously still not confirmed and as such is firmly in rumour territory for now, given that this same leaker correctly predicted the arrival of Modern Warfare 3 it’s probably a safe bet to expect to see this happen. Hopefully, Game Pass members will continue to see the fruits of Xbox’s $69 billion USD acquisition of Activision Blizzard with the continued addition of legacy and future titles, especially in the face of recent subscription price hikes, which the FTC is already zeroing in on.

We gave the Crash Bandicoot N.Sane Trilogy a huge 9/10 all the way back in 2017, with Shannong saying, “The Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy has exceeded my expectations as an overall package. Vicarious Visions have done a really good job at improving the overall presentation of all three games as well as fine-tuning things such as the save system and added time trials. Above all, they’ve accomplished this whilst maintaining the core platforming aspects that made Crash so memorable to begin with. I was worried that these games wouldn’t hold up and would ruin some great memories, but they’ve just reminded me why I’m so passionate about games in the first place.”
