Game Description
Crash Bandicoot: Warped catapulted Naughty Dog’s beloved marsupial to new heights on the PlayStation 1, delivering one of the most polished and exhilarating 3D platformers of its era. Released in 1998 and published by Sony, this third entry in the Crash Bandicoot series sends Crash and Coco on a globe-trotting quest through time to stop the evil Dr. Neo Cortex and Uka Uka from taking over the world. Set across vibrant time periods—from ancient Egypt to medieval castles and the far future—every level bursts with creativity, humor, and fast-paced challenge.
Building on the series’ trademark precision platforming, Crash Bandicoot: Warped introduces time trials, new vehicle-based stages, and playable levels as Coco for added variety. The result is a game that feels endlessly inventive, constantly surprising players with new ideas while retaining the tight controls and personality that defined the franchise. Its bright, cartoon-style visuals, buttery-smooth animation, and clever use of humor cemented Crash as PlayStation’s de facto mascot of the late ’90s.
Universally praised for its design, pacing, and replayability, Crash Bandicoot: Warped represents the pinnacle of classic PlayStation platforming. It’s a joyful blend of nostalgia and challenge, wrapped in Naughty Dog’s impeccable craftsmanship. For collectors, it remains one of the defining exclusives of the console—an essential piece of PlayStation history that captures the energy, creativity, and fun of gaming’s golden age.

Historical Trivia or Fun Fact
Crash Bandicoot: Warped was the final Crash game developed by Naughty Dog for the original PlayStation before the studio moved on to create Jak and Daxter. The game’s innovative time-travel premise allowed for diverse level themes and mechanics, keeping players engaged from start to finish. It was also the first in the series to introduce the relic-based time trial system, which became a lasting hallmark of the franchise.
Upon release, Warped received universal acclaim and quickly became one of the PlayStation’s best-selling titles, solidifying Crash Bandicoot as a household name. Decades later, it remains a cornerstone of 3D platforming and a defining part of Sony’s gaming legacy. Its influence can still be felt in the modern Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy, which faithfully rebuilt the game’s original brilliance for a new generation of fans.
