Activision has announced that Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy sales have passed a major milestone almost seven years after the collection's initial release.
In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Activision reveals that the game, which packs in remakes of the first three Crash Bandicoot platformers, has managed to sell 20 million copies since it launched on June 30th, 2017.
The 20 million figure puts N. Sane Trilogy on a par with massively successful games like Hogwarts Legacy and Tears of the Kingdom and just behind titles like Elden Ring, although it's obviously taken Crash longer to achieve its sales figure than it took those two games.
According to Toys for Bob design director Toby Schadt, Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time, the latest mainline entry in the series, sold over 5 million copies, which puts N. Sane Trilogy well ahead of its successor (although N. Sane also has a near-three-year headstart).
Schadt's figures also say that Spyro Reignited Trilogy, another collection of three classic PS1 platformers from Toys for Bob, hit 10 million sales, and that game launched just over a year after N. Sane, so it looks like Crash wins this one.
If you're wondering exactly what Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy is, it's a collection of the first three mainline Crash Bandicoot platformers, namely Crash Bandicoot, Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back, and Crash Bandicoot: Warped.
Though the N. Sane Trilogy versions of the games hew pretty close to the originals, they also feature reworked visuals and gameplay improvements, including new save mechanics and the addition of time trials to the first two games.
