Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time won’t use in-game purchases, ergo, that statement about in-app purchases is false (via Destructoid).
We're seeing confusion about #MTX in @CrashBandicoot 4 and want to be clear: There are NO MICROTRANSACTIONS in #Crash4. As a bonus, the Totally Tubular skins are included in all digital versions of the game.

It was an email from GameStop to players that claimed that this feature would be included, but the developer cleared up the confusion. “We’re seeing confusion about MTX in Crash Bandicoot 4 and want to be (crystal) clear,” said Toys 4 Bob. “There are NO MICROTRANSACTIONS in Crash 4. As a bonus, the Totally Tubular skins are included in all digital versions of the game.”
Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled was free of in-game purchases initially, and then Activision added these with a post-release patch. That didn’t go down well, and though the feature is still in the racing remaster, Activision altered their format based on feedback from players. Hearing that Crash Bandicoot 4 would also feature these in-game purchases wasn’t outside of the realm of possibility, really.
But, Toys 4 Bob has set the record straight, and the game won’t include these when it launches for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on October 2.
