Vicarious Visions' recently released gameplay videos of "Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy" prove that the games are not just remastered editions of the original titles, but rather fully remade titles that bear only a passing resemblance to the graphics of yesteryear.

The trailer, which shows the eponymous character traversing through the "Sewer on Later" stage from "Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back," is testimony that the game producer took advantage of the technology offered by the PlayStation 4, which is the console that the game can be exclusively played on. The colors, visuals, and even the sounds have been revamped to make the game appealing to the next-generation console players, and judging from the excitement raised about the trilogy, it is not just those who hold the older "Crash Bandicoot" games that are interested in purchasing these titles.

"Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy" remakes the first three PlayStation titles of the game series — "Crash Bandicoot," "Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back," and "Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped." According to Daily Star, Debi Derryberry will be reprising her role as the voice actor of Coco Bandicoot, Crash's sister, in the trilogy. The character made her first appearance in the second game of the series.

Although Naughty Dog was the original game producer of the "Crash Bandicoot" series, Vicarious Visions has since taken this role. A spokesperson of the company told Express that they would not be averse to producing more titles for the series in the future.

"Obviously, we're fans," said the spokesperson. "Everybody wants to see a new 'Crash' game."

The spokesperson continued, "I'm onside with everybody else. We'd love to see as much Crash as possible. It's really cool that he's really making a comeback right now."

"Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy" is set for release on June 30. More demos will be uploaded by the game's production team prior to the game's launch.
