Enemies & Characters
Crash Bandicoot
No one is faster, smarter and more agile than Crash. He can execute a spin that'll knock any opponent off their feet or send crates spinning out of control.
Coco Bandicoot
Crash's cute and brainy little sister, Coco is equally as fast and nimble as her brother. In Bash arenas, she can get to Stone Blocks and TNT in record time.
Dingodile
Dingodile's tail whip attack is killer. And, in Tank arenas he can fire two shot volleys.
Tiny
Tiny can throw Stone Blocks or TNT half way across the arena. His tank shots are short range with maximum damage.
Aku Aku
Aku Aku is the fatherly spirit of a witch doctor who lived a long time ago. He has been a protective force for Crash from the beginning.
Dr. Neo Cortex
His laser cannon tank shots have twice the range of any other contestant. Don't trust this guy as far as you can throw him!
Dr. N. Brio
Like Cortex he is armed with a laser and he is also a master of long tank shots.
Rilla Roo
Though he prefers to take his time around the arena, his huge whipping tail delivers a nasty blow.
Koala Kong
His powerful kick is brutal and he can throw just as far as Tiny.
Uka Uka
He is the twisted brother spirit of Aku Aku. After eons of imprisonment, Uka Uka became free to encourage rotten deeds.
