Crash Bandicoot N.Sane Trilogy: Secret Levels / Key Locations

In all three Crash Bandicoot titles you could find secrets and hidden levels. They led you into bonus level and rewarded you with many Wumpa fruits. Even in the up-and-coming version of the trilogy, there are these secret paths, which are activated by keys or secret exists. In each part, it is something different, as you can get into the bonus level. How this works, you will find here.

In crashes 1 to 3, the methods to find the bonus level are a little different. However, there are two secret levels in every three games of Crash Bandicoot N.Sane Trilogy, but each time different ways to unlock them. In the first part, you must find two keys that are hidden in two other stages. However, these keys are also linked to conditions. So you have to find symbols of N. Cortex to finally get the keys to the secret levels.

In the second part of Crash Bandicoot, N.Sane Trilogy, Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back, you reach the secret routes through two secret exists hidden in the levels. Three additional secret ports are built into the game. However, these don’t lead you to the bonus stages. Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped, the third part in the trilogy, has two secrets that lead you to the two bonus levels.

"Key" is actually the wrong term for the condition you need to unlock to get the two bonus levels. Rather, you need Neo-Cortex symbol images. Three of them are hidden in two stages. If you have collected all, a secret exit opens, which brings you to the bonus. The teleporter then light up blue and can be entered as soon as you have found all the symbols. The two levels you must take for these tasks are: Sunset Vista and Jaws of Darkness.

How to Find the First Key in Sunset Vista

- To find the first Cortex face, you must go to the third floor of the level. Go up to the top level of the ruin. Look for a small room that shows a white box. Defeat the lizard and run into the room.


- You will find the second Cortex face directly afterwards. Go and match the bats. Now there are three blocks that move forward. You must jump to the second block. Next to the symbol you will also find a life.


- The last face is to the left of the teleporter, which brings you to the bonus level. Grab your life and go left. You can go through between the blocks. Go to the far left and jump a little to get it.

- Now go on until you pass many arrows that shoot from the walls. At the end of the passage, a snake awaits you. Jump to the head and then to the platform with the question mark.


- Go from here to the left. Also, if it looks as if you have to go backwards, you can run to the left. The fruits show you the way. As soon as you run to them platforms will appear. Here you’ll not only find the teleporter, but also the last face in the crates.
