As Crash and Coco arrive at [[Tranquility Falls, 1402|Tranquility Falls]], N. Brio abruptly appears and tells them to go to his battlefield to get a reward after defeating his creatures. Tawna encounters the doctor just as he was about to toss a beaker of potion onto the Bandicoot. She surprises him, causing him to miss his shot. However, when Tawna prepares to fight Brio herself, he escapes using his beakers. Crash and Coco later arrive at Brio's testing grounds to battle him. After getting badly damaged, he drinks the potion and transforms into a hulking form to crush the Bandicoots. Akano is able to help Crash and Coco knock him out of his grounds; however, N. Brio has eventually survived his defeat, having transformed into a pterodactyl form, in an attempt to deal the decisive blow, only to lay an egg that Crash claims and fly off, mortified, much to Coco's shock. Meanwhile, in [[Mosquito Marsh, A Few Days Ago|Mosquito Marsh]], [[Dingodile]], who has recently retired from villainy to run his own restaurant, finds himself caught up in the chaos as his business is burned down by a rival restaurant, and he is sucked into another dimension by a Quantum Rift after exacting revenge on a group of Wumpashiners after they detonate his business, and he traverses through dimensions in his search for home to rebuild his diner. When Crash and Coco traverse across the bayou, [[Kupuna-Wa]] joins the duo.

Crash and Coco enter [[The 11th Dimension, 1954|the 11th Dimension]] where they hear a warning message from a hologram of Cortex; he informs them not to freeze while they try to find him on the mountain. As the Bandicoots make it to a ship, the doctor pulls out a button that will explode it upon pressing it, attempting to blow the bandicoots into smithereens, only to sneeze hard and inadvertently press the button too early, thus failing his plan. When Crash and Coco climb their way across the mountain, Tawna comes across a button and upon pressing it, it raises a platform full of [[Nitro Crate]]s, which the Bandicoots proceed thanks to Kupuna-Wa. The Bandicoots use Polar to give chase on their way to Cortex's [[Doctor Neo Cortex's airship|airship]], where the doctor is awaiting their arrival. Following their confrontation against Cortex, N. Tropy betrays him and reveals that he and his new partner—eventually revealed to be an [[Doctor Nefarious Tropy (female)|alternate version of himself]] from Tawna's universe—are seeking to use the Rift Generator's power to reset the timeline in all dimensions as gods. They put the multiverse in turmoil and plan to subsequently erase Cortex, the bandicoots, and the Masks from existence. A mad Cortex agrees to team up with the bandicoots.

The three arrive in the [[Eggipus Dimension, 88 Million B.C.B|Eggipus Dimension]] where they rescue the final Quantum Mask, [[Ika-Ika]]. They eventually arrive at [[Bermugula's Orbit, ???|Bermugula's Orbit]] where they meet up with Dingodile and Tawna; together, they see the Tropy doctors on a television with [[Nitros Oxide]]. The female Dr. N. Tropy orders Oxide to take his ship to planet Bermugula to protect the Rift Generator, leading Cortex making his way through the interior of his space station in order to prevent him from leaving inside his spaceship. Cortex later makes it to the control panel and presses a big red button that stuns the ship. As Crash and Coco arrive at the ship, Tawna captures them and leaves them bound as she goes to face the Tropy doctors at the Rift Generator herself. After Dingodile and Cortex free Crash and Coco, they happen upon Tawna trying to deal with the Tropy doctors, and the female N. Tropy tauntingly reveals that she killed Crash and Coco herself in Tawna's dimension. The Bandicoots defeat the doctors, leading the Quantum Masks destroying the Rift Generator, sealing all the space-time disruptions.

However, when they take a celebratory trip to Neon City in [[The Sn@xx Dimension, 3023|the Sn@xx Dimension]], Cortex betrays the group and kidnaps Kupuna-Wa, using her powers to travel back in time to [[Cortex Island, 1996|1996]] (the year of his original bid for world domination) in an attempt to obstruct his fiasco known as [[Crash Bandicoot (game)|Crash's creation]]. In the end, the doctor is unable to both convince his past self to capture and evolve a wombat instead of the past Crash for the experiment and kill the present Crash, Coco and Aku Aku, who followed him from the future. When the Quantum Masks banish him to the end of the universe, the past Cortex proceeds with the experiment, preparing to brainwash the past Crash with the [[Cortex Vortex]]; the present Crash inadvertently destroys the Vortex's power source, causing it to malfunction and fail to brainwash his past self, thereby ensuring his own creation thanks to a casual loop. Dingodile rebuilds and reopens his diner, Cortex relaxes on the end of the universe and enjoys the peace and quiet, and Crash, Coco, Tawna, Aku Aku and the Quantum Masks play video games at their home on [[N. Sanity Island]]. Following an epilogue narrated by Crash detailing the fates and whereabouts of the game's characters, Cortex's relaxation is interrupted by the sudden appearance of Uka Uka.

|align=left|Dr. Neo Cortex is the sworn creator of Crash Bandicoot, Crash's longtime archenemy, and the true main antagonist of the game. In [[The 11th Dimension, 1954|The 11th Dimension]], Cortex attacks Crash or Coco by using missiles, discs of light, and purple energy trombies that can be safely avoided using [[Kupuna-Wa]]. In each phase, he summons [[Punchbot Mark 2]] to punch the bandicoot, and he or she must use Kupuna-Wa to defeat it, causing it to fly towards the doctor. After four hits, the doctor is defeated for the first time in the game. In [[Cortex Island, 1996|Cortex Island]], it was eventually revealed that Cortex is the true final boss; here, he kidnaps the [[Quantum Masks]] and uses not only the [[Shoot-o-Matic]]s to fire rings of electricity that electrocute Crash or Coco, but also the effects of each Quantum Mask. After defeating all the Shoot-o-Matics in each phase, Cortex summons one or more [[Lab Assistant]]s that attack the bandicoot, which he or she must defeat, causing them to fly towards him. After eight hits (one for each of the first four phases and four for the fifth and final one), he is defeated a second time.
