Following various clues and most recently also a leak Activision has now officially announced the 'Spyro Reignited Trilogy' for PS4 and Xbox One, which will be released later this year.
Spyro is on his way, eager for new adventures and ready to give the bad guys a good thrashing. This trilogy offers players a completely remastered collection of the three original games that started the Spyro phenomenon: Spyro the Dragon, Spyro 2: Gateway to Glimmer, and Spyro: Year of the Dragon.
To celebrate Spyro's 20th birthday, Activision is giving fans a nostalgia treat even before the official return in September: In remembrance of Spyro's original announcement, starting Monday, April 9th, players of the Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy can use their controller to enter the code (↑ ↑ ↓ ↓ ← → ← → Square) on the title screen of Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped to watch the Spyro Reignited Trilogy trailer.
Spyro Reignited Trilogy has been rebuilt from the ground up by lead developer Toys For Bob, delivering all the fun and nostalgic gameplay that fans remember – with over 100 levels, improved reward sequences, Spyro's wacky dragon gang and other mischief-makers (including dragonfly Sparx, Hunter, Sheila, Agent 9, and Sergeant Byrd), and much more. The trilogy also features enhanced environments, revamped controls, brand-new lighting effects, and recreated cutscenes that bring this unique adventure to life.
"It is very important to us that we remain true to the three original Spyro games with Spyro Reignited Trilogy," said Paul Yan, Chief Creative Officer at Toys For Bob. “We have put everything into lovingly recreating the characters and worlds as they live in the memories of fans. At the same time, we have breathed new life into the game collection with elaborate, high-resolution details. This is how we will bring back the Spyro we all fell in love with 20 years ago.”
According to Activision, Spyro Reignited Trilogy is a breathtaking gaming experience that lives up to the quality of the first three games. Every level in Spyro Reignited Trilogy is meticulously recreated from the original. The characters have been creatively reimagined with great attention to detail, allowing fans to relive the adventures of Spyro and his friends like never before. Players can look forward to a trilogy with stunning detail, fresh, modern mechanics, full analog stick support, and smooth camera control. The original soundtrack from the first three titles, composed by Stewart Copeland, also features a new version in Spyro Reignited Trilogy.
The Spyro Reignited Trilogy will be released on September 21, 2018.
