In a recent blog post, Activision confirmed that the Battle Passes in Crash Team Rumble will only contain cosmetic rewards, and not new characters or powers. The developers have stated that they want to provide a balanced experience for every player to enjoy the game’s fun, and as such, new heroes and powers will be earned through in-game challenges, rather than being tied to the Battle Pass.
The Battle Passes will only reward players with cosmetic items, allowing them to get the latest looks for their characters. However, these cosmetics will also be earnable through seasonal event participation.
Crash Team Rumble is an upcoming online multiplayer video game developed by Toys for Bob and published by Activision. It is scheduled for release on June 20, 2023, for Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5. The game is the third in the party genre in the Crash Bandicoot series and features several members of its cast as playable characters.
The gameplay of Crash Team Rumble pits two teams of players against each other as they stockpile Wumpa Fruit while impeding the opposing team’s efforts. It is a “strategic multiplayer platforming game” in which players must capture more Wumpa Fruit than the other team to claim victory. Each character in the game has unique skills and abilities with which to battle the opposing team. The character roster is divided into three roles: “Blocker”, “Booster”, and “Scorer”. The game will also feature cross-platform play.
