Talk:Crash Team Rumble

Unlock?
Is this page gonna be unlocked anytime soon? We're out of the immediate reveal hype period, so I feel like it should be fine to open it up for a bit, at least until we get closer to launch. Notably, I've noticed that they updated the official website (here), so we now have the Japanese name for the game - クラッシュ・チーム・ランブル. It's a direct transliteration, so it seems they aren't localising the Japanese titles anymore (assuming that this is the final name and not a working title).

Crash Team Rumble is not a MOBA
Hi, I noticed that the genre is improperly listed as a MOBA. On Wikipedia, they list it as Real-time strategy and platform game. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crash_Team_Rumble However, on PlayStation's official Twitter they described it as a "Competitive Multiplayer Platformer" https://twitter.com/PlayStation/status/1640776516165595138 and I found another article from Screen Rant also saying it isn't a MOBA https://screenrant.com/crash-team-rumble-preview-multiplayer-game/ MidasofGTR (talk) 03:59, 1 April 2023 (UTC)

Genre
Just found a more detailed source that includes an interview with the Senior Studio Coordinator for Toys for Bob, Sydney Del Signore where she clarify's more about the games genre “We’re trying to figure out what genre it is. So we’re saying 4v4 competitive strategic platformer, right? Which you haven’t seen that before. You’ve seen other Crash games in the past that have done different things but you haven’t seen the platforming experience in a multiplayer.”

Story/Lore
So I'm bad at editing these pages, otherwise I'd fix it myself, but I noticed that no one has listed the in game story/lore.

The great Wumpa Games originally came from humble beginnings; springing forth as an off-shoot activity tied to the Wumpa Islands annual Wumpa Harvest. Inhabitants from the various islands would form teams and compare how many Wumpa could be gathered on a given day. What initially started as a light diversion has now grown into a cutthroat competition, filled with the fiercest competitors any dimension has ever seen. This annual competition is such a monumental event that onlookers will even witness hated rivals banding together to become the Crash Team Rumble Champions.
