Crash Bandicoot 4 Is Finally Headed To The PC

Crash Bandicoot 4-Its About Time_screenshot_03

For everyone asking why hasn’t Activision released Crash Bandicoot 4 for the PC yet, you can stop asking.  Today, Activision has announced that Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time will be made available for PC on March 26th, 2021. This follows the release of the title onto both the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. However, there’s a catch that some may not like; it’s heading to Battle.net.

Yes, If you weren’t aware of it, all Activision PC games reside in Battle.net. So if you were looking forward to playing Crash 4 and don’t have Battle.net, you’ll have one more launcher to install. I’m sure this will start another “Why isn’t this on Steam” debate, but unfortunately, that is the state of PC gaming. Having a dozen different launchers on PC is simply where we are now.

Minimum Requirements

  • Operating System -Windows 10
  • Processor – Intel Core i3-4340/AMD FX-6300
  • Video – Nvidia GTX 660/AMD Radeon HD 7950
  • Memory – 8 GB RAM
  • Storage – 30 GB
  • Internet – Broadband Internet connection
  • Input – Keyboard and mouse and controllers are supported.

Recommended Specifications

  • Operating System – Windows® 10
  • Processor – Intel® Core i5-2500k/AMD Ryzen 5 1600X
  • Video – Nvidia GTX 970/AMD R9 390
  • Memory – 16 GB RAM
  • Storage – 30 GB
  • Internet – Broadband Internet connection
  • Input – Keyboard and mouse and controllers are supported.


There’s no mention of 4K support for the PC version, even though it is on the PS5 and Xbox Series X versions. I’m going to assume that it will, but it would have been nice if this was listed on the store page. Either way, Crash Bandicoot 4 is headed to the PC, and yes, It’s About Time.

Are you excited about the news? Will you be picking this up for the PC? Let us know in the comments!
