Hey there, ever since I saw the character pack for Terminator Dark Fate, I was like “Would The Coalition(TC) do a Crash Bandicoot character pack for Gears 5?” If so, would Activision be on board with it? Who knows, The Coalition is capable is just about anything.
if you never even heard of Crash Bandicoot, you can look it up. Also, I’m, referring to the HD re-release.
Question: Would you favor a Crash Bandicoot character pack or would you oppose it?
If you favor it what abilities would the characters have? I’ve thought some up myself for Horde Mode?
Good guys
