Developed by Beenox, this authentic Crash Team Racing experience has been remastered in stunning HD and refueled with all new content, including online multiplayer racing.
In this game, players can put the pedal to the metal with Crash, Coco, Dr. Neo Cortex, and other familiar faces from the Crash Bandicoot series as they race against the self-proclaimed “fastest racer in the galaxy” Nitros Oxide for the fate of the planet!
All characters, karts, tracks, and arenas from the original Crash racing game return in HD, with Crash and friends’ expressions and antics remastered in modern detail as they blast each other with power-ups and power slide around corners.
In the new game, Adventure, Arcade Single Race and Cup Race, Time Trials and Battle Mode are back. Play Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled single player or vs. friends both online and offline. The original soundtrack has been remastered as well.
“Not only are we revamping Crash Team Racing from the kart up in Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled,” said Thomas Wilson, Co-Studio Head at Beenox, “We are giving fans a whole lot more including all the characters and tracks they love, with tons of added animations and personality that the original platforms just couldn’t convey. We can’t wait to see fans go head-to-head as they test their Crash kart racing mettle in online multiplayer.”
