Crash Team Rumble Season 2 - Ripto, New Party Mode, More New Features

[CrystalBlazier]

Crash Team Rumble Season 2 has gone live today, with new features and new characters to be added soon down the line. The new hero, Ripto, will be the new Booster-type character to be added to the roster.

It's time to get the party started, because Crash Team Rumble Season 2 is live as of today! Featuring an all-new Party co-op mode, two new maps, an all-new 100 tier Battle Pass, as well as Ripto from the Spyro universe coming later in the season, Season 2 is set to be a wild ride! Check out the Season 2 trailer here.

In Party Mode, players can assemble a team of four and get ready to party in five distinct mini-game rounds, each with their own challenges.

Party Mode comes in five different types:

• Speed Run – Race through speed pads with your teammates while dodging hazards like bumpers and nitro crates. Players are connected by a tether that increases their speed, but breaks if players move too far apart from their teammates. Don’t leave anyone behind, and race as a group to achieve the best times!
  
  
• What’s Cookin? – Work together to collect specific ingredients and add them to a huge pot that travels around the map. Make sure to communicate with your teammates to ensure you aren’t grabbing the wrong ingredients, and always keep an eye on the pot!
  
  
• Get Lit – Players must use a candle to light lanterns scattered around a massive tower before time runs out. Your candle will burn out, so you’ll need to rely on your teammates to re-light it to keep up the pace. Careful timing and coordination are the keys to success!
  
  
• Dig It – Search across the map for buried bones and reassemble them in the center to uncover a full skeleton! Some bones are larger than others and need multiple players to carry them. Make good use of the ping system, and time your jumps in tandem to ensure the best times.
  
  
• Balloon Bounce (releasing later during Season 2) – Leap high in the sky above Calamity Canyon, and bounce across huge balloons to score points. Each wave generates different sets of balloons; your team will need to bounce on a certain number of each shape to claim victory. Bounce carefully, as multiple players leaping at the same balloon may find themselves plummeting back to earth!
  

Dragons Beware, Ripto is Crashing the Party

Say hello to your new king. Ripto is back to cause mayhem and mischief as the newest Booster to join the hero roster! Wielding his scepter, he controls the battlefield with a myriad of deadly and powerful spells. Blast your foes away with huge fireballs, summon lightning to strike enemies into the ground, and conjure huge tsunami waves to leap into the air. In the hands of a skilled player, Ripto can combine his abilities together to create devastating combos. Be on the lookout for his release later during Season 2!
