While fans already saw the gameplay of the upcoming title, it looks like it would be released with one of the most requested modes, multiplayer.

The latest information about the rumored mode of “Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time” came from the official PlayStation Store page. The unconfirmed detail claim that the upcoming title would feature offline multiplayer for 2 to 4 players. It could be referring to a local co-op or a separate offline multiplayer mode.

Considering that there would be multiple characters playable in “Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time,” whispers about a multiplayer mode is not impossible. It is worth mentioning that the previous “Crash” game is only a single-player experience. While it is passable to share the controller back and forth with a friend, in terms of old-school co-op experience, there was no formal multiplayer mode for it. Earlier, Toys for Bod gaming studio confirmed that players could choose between Coco and Crash while playing “Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time,” it only covers a couple of players.

Meanwhile, the upcoming title would be released on current generation gaming consoles’ PS4 and Xbox One on Oct 2, 2020.
