Gameplay hasn’t changed much, but it doesn’t mean that Crash 4 doesn’t have anything fresh to offer. On the contrary. Several new mechanics introduced by Toys For Bob make the game even more satisfying than its previous installments.

Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time is a dizzying, glorious marriage of old and new sensibilities, confirming the series is in safe, even inspired hands. The Bandicoot is back.
Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time delivers the sequel fans would expect, and one that’s really good for newcomers yet the strange twisted hardcore latter portion is a sore spot.
Crash 4: It’s About Time is a wonderful sequel that’s sure to appease fans with its challenging platforming and nods to the past titles. While the difficult learning curve is a little too steep and newcomers may feel alienated by the inside jokes, there’s enough here to make Crash 4 one of the best platformers to crash-land on Playstation for quite some time.
With a game extremely rich in content, super fun to play, extremely challenging and very lively, it is, without a doubt, a mandatory game for fans of Crash and platform games.

Crash and his friends have finally found a new home alongside his buddy Spyro at Activision. While I may wear these rose tinted goggles proudly, I can say with the utmost confidence that Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s about Time is in contention for Game of the Year.
When all is said and done, Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time delivers an exceptional platforming experience with only a few wrinkles. It provides a fun and challenging campaign, and some extras afterward for good measure. The genre has come along way since gamers were first introduced to the bandicoot. Hopefully, we’ll see more from him and Toys for Bob in the future.
Overall, Crash 4 is a cracking platform game and an excellent way to start saying goodbye to the current console generation before the inevitable switchover to PS5 and Xbox Series X. It’s great fun, feels classic and most importantly plays brilliantly.
Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time gives us the Crash experience that we’ve been waiting so long for. The developer seemed to understand what was unique about the series but added touches of their own imagination to make it their own. The finished product is a 3D platformer that is as fun as it is frustrating, so you can bet that it fits in perfectly with the other titles. Here’s to another generation of Crash.
Crash Bandicoot 4 just about accomplishes near perfection in terms of being an effective and original platformer, and is now my favorite one of the genre and series. What was once great is now fantastic, what was once flawed is now fixed. Questions are answered, demands are met with great results and improvement.
Crash Bandicoot 4 is a true return to form. It's essentially the modern version of a 90s 3D platforming genre that still retains its challenge & freshness.
Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time is a brilliant and wild platforming romp that is sure to please series veterans thanks to its fun nostalgia-fuelled gameplay. That’s not to say that complete newcomers won’t enjoy the ride too though, with everything in the game feeling finely crafted – each level offers satisfying platforming challenges, a good mix of kooky enemies to defeat, and plenty of variety thanks to the use of additional characters and the Quantum Masks. It’s just a really, really, REALLY fun game. It’s tough though, which may be off-putting to a number of players (particularly younger ones) who were hoping for an easier time. With an array of settings to make life easier though (including a landing indicator and the option to play with unlimited lives), even the most frustrating levels won’t see you rage-quitting this exquisite platforming adventure. There’s simply no doubting it: Crash Bandicoot is back and he’s better than ever in Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time. The future sure looks bright for gaming’s mightiest marsupial… and who knows, maybe we’ll see a little purple dragon make a grand re-appearance soon too?
Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time is the perfect distillation of classic gameplay, and modern gaming demands. It is full to bursting with content, things to earn and masses of replayability. Though its difficulty may be too high for some, it’s definitely the best Crash Bandicoot has ever been and deserves its place alongside the original trilogy. A classic modernised and a modern classic.
Throughout my time spent with Crash Bandicoot 4, I had nothing but fun exploring the game’s rich, well-designed levels. It was also a joy seeing some familiar characters return. Developer Toys For Bob went above and beyond in providing a highly entertaining experience fit for both Crash Bandicoot veterans and newcomers alike.
Twelve years after Crash Bandicoot’s last original adventure on home consoles, Activision and Toys for Bob have embarked on a gamble as risky as ambitious : to bring the famous orange marsupial back to the forefront of the video game scene with an episode paying homage to the original trilogy of the 90s. A challenge that worried more than one after the many years of wandering that the series knew. But for our greatest happiness : the bet is raised hands down. With Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time, Toys for Bob undoubtedly delivers us one of the best episodes released to date and proves us at the same time that it’s never too late to revive the icon of a whole generation. Whether through its story, its gameplay or its artistic direction, this new adventure appears with every minute passing as a true love letter to Naughty Dog’s work. And we can say it… it was about time !

Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time is a brilliant sequel to the original trilogy that makes Crash a relevant gaming figure once more. You'll have a ton of fun navigating each level and unlock gems while learning from each death as you laugh along with Crash and friends. While it is more of the same mechanics, the new content is well worth seeing what made Crash so much fun years ago.
Crash Bandicoot 4 does what the series is best at by providing a hefty challenge, and some smart additions to gameplay make it ever more playable than previous entries.
This latest entry may not feature the inspired level design that made the original trilogy much-loved by fans, but it does undoubtedly feature the best platforming in the history of the franchise.
One of the poster boys of platform games returns triumphantly with a highly entertaining and very well-made game, where each frame is proof of the love that the creators have for the title.
