Crash Bandicoot 4 for Switch Potentially Revealed

A Nintendo Switch release for Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time may have been revealed thanks to placeholder code found on the game's website. Twitter user @SunwerPrower tweeted a picture of the It's About Time website source code last Friday, which refers to the Nintendo Switch in a section of the code referred to as 'PlatformLabel'.

Dentro de la página de Crash Bandicoot 4, se encuentra un pequeño vestigio de Switch. Más en concreto se trata de un script que incluye el elemento "Nintendo Switch". Éste componente es quien nutre el menú de opciones de plataformas. Pueden comprobarlo ustedes mismos. pic.twitter.com/oTMtBno1ZV

Viewing the page source still reveals that section at time of writing, with no corresponding option listed on the live site. This doesn't absolutely confirm a Nintendo Switch release for Crash Bandicoot 4, but it suggests that it may become an option in the near future, perhaps revealed later down the line. Given that the Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy made its way to the Nintendo Switch around a year after its initial PS4 release, it seems very possible we could see a similar move here. Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time was revealed back in June and will launch on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on October 2, 2020. It will be the second Crash Bandicoot game from Toys for Bob, which delivered the remastered collection Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy in 2018. You can check out our review of the N. Sane Trilogy here, which we scored an 8.5, calling it "N. credible fun" [poilib element="accentDivider"] Jordan Oloman is a freelance writer for IGN. Follow him on Twitter.
