This is pure nostalgia and a complete overhaul of the original games. If you’re looking for new Spyro levels or bosses, this isn’t the place to go. Toys for Bob painstakingly recreated each world, level, and environment to be set up exactly the same way as the original games, except with better graphics, a remastered soundtrack, voice acting, and so much more. Activision requested that they work on this remastered, revamped trilogy, after the Skylanders franchise ran its course, and boy did they put their time into it. It was created by Toys for Bob, a new development team that has been fans of the Spyro games for many years. Playing it on Switch though is an even better experience, or at least a more portable, versatile one.įor those who have somehow missed Spyro Reignited Trilogy, it is essentially a complete remaster of the first three games in the franchise, Spyro the Dragon, Spyro 2: Ripto’s Rage, and Spyro: Year of the Dragon. When I played the Spyro Reignited Trilogy on PS4 (prior to opening Phenixx Gaming) I was reminded immediately of why I loved the franchise as a kid. I’m a fan of Sonic, Mario, Crash, and other mascot platformer franchises of course, but all roads seemed to lead back to Spyro for me. In fact, I would even go so far as to say that it is the gold standard for mascot platformers of the PS1 era. As a kid, Spyro The Dragon was one of my absolute favorite franchises.
