    Most impressively, each of the dozens of levels has been thoughtfully recreated with impressive attention to visual and audio detail, bringing the magical feel of the series to life once more. Fans of the originals will find almost nothing to dislike, and I can see Spyro delighting a new generation of players with the quality of this collection.

    The Spyro Reignited Trilogy is a beautifully realised remaster of the original titles which, thanks to today’s technology, fully matches the potential and ambition the games had in the 1990s.

    More than a simple coat of paint, the Spyro Reignited Trilogy brings back a wave of nostalgia, seemingly improving my fond memories of the classic purple dragon. Now a new generation, like my daughter, can enjoy Spyro, and Toys For Bob should be commended for creating this remaster with the proper love and care that Spyro deserved for original fans, and they have truly outdone themselves.

    Spyro's original adventures have been lovingly recreated in the Reignited Trilogy, so if you're ready to fire up the legends again and explore a vast and beautiful realm disguised as a fire-breathing dragon, then you simply can't miss this one.

    Following Crash’s epic comeback, Spyro’s Reignited Trilogy faithfully brings back the purple dragon’s first three games with an outstanding level of care and attention to detail. With some minor issues to the side, this trilogy is a treasure trove for any fan of classic platformers. There’s a vast amount of exciting content on offer here, content that will keep you entertained for hours on end, and then some.

    Spyro: Reignited Trilogy is all we could have asked for. A remake that could pass for a modern game thanks to the visual magic of Toy for Bob.

    Spyro Reignited Trilogy is silly fun; an enjoyable, exciting and vibrant compendium of collect-a-thon platforming classics given a new lease of life. Flaming wonderful.

    It’s great to see Spyro’s return treated with such love and care, and I hope renewed interest in his past can light the way for his future.

    Given just how different the worlds look in remastered form, I found this trilogy to be more interesting and enjoyable to return to than Crash’s. These games don’t preserve history as well, but that’s okay. Having already lived through them, it’s fascinating to see how the worlds have been reimagined and differ from the vision I had in my head.

    Spyro Reignited Trilogy is a must have pack for platform game fans. Those who feel nostalgic about Spyro's adventures will find a great remaster of the original trilogy and new players will be able to enjoy 3 iconic games in this genre.

    If nothing else, the studio’s excellent work on Spyro: Reignited Trilogy shows the franchise in good hands, and a new game could address some of the poorly-aged elements and other fan complaints, like the the Reignited Trilogy‘s lack of subtitles.

    There is something magical about this trilogy. Sure Crash had more fanfare, but Spyro feels like a piece of history lost. Going back to these games was a pure joyful experience. Whether it was my fatigue of current titles or just that I crave colorful platformers, I cannot recommend this game enough. Even with its blemishes it was a title that I spent the most time smiling while playing.

    While mechanically you can sense the age of the originals, visually the original PSone trilogy was superbly modernized. A great addition for any action adventure fan.

    This remaster is one of the best examples of what technology can do to bring back a classic game to let the modern audiences enjoy these timeless classics.

    Spyro looks fresh and stylish with a trilogy that provides a lot of content, although it might feel repetitive over time, it's still an enjoyable platformer experience.

    Spyro Reignited Trilogy is an excellent remake of the originals. It's a lot of fun to play and looks stunning. Unfortunately, the lack of a 60 FPS option, even on the Xbox One X, and the awkward camera controls in some levels detract from the experience. Despite these issues, the remake pays homage to some of the best platformers ever created, and it's evident that developer Toys for Bob spent many years crafting this package. It's a labor of love and that shines above all else.

    Were Spyro games actually good 20 years ago? That’s what we wondered when we first launched Spyro Reignited Trilogy until we gladly discover that yes, they were. And still are, despite an outdated first episode.

    Spyro Reignited Trilogy is a game best enjoyed in bite-sized sessions, otherwise it soon begins to feel like a chore.

    For most players, nostalgia won’t be enough to save it; the games are good enough, but not great. These three titles would have been better suited as straight up re-releases on the upcoming PlayStation Classic rather than as a set of remastered games.

    The controls have been done to perfection remaining tight and responsive at all times which keeps frustration down to a minimum. I was veryThe controls have been done to perfection remaining tight and responsive at all times which keeps frustration down to a minimum. I was very impressed with the improvements that have been made to the presentation side of the game because both the visuals and sound design have been done extremely well. There’s a ton of content for you to get to play with and each Spyro game that’s present is fun and had lots of thought and effort placed into them. I really enjoyed the story back in the day and once again I enjoyed the story again because without a doubt it has aged extremely well. One of my favorite things about this remaster is that it has stayed faithful to the original game’s and this means old-school gamers and newcomers alike can enjoy it. The camera can be an issue at times because at time your seem to be able to get full control of it. If you didn’t like the original games then this probably won’t change your mind. The Spyro the Dragon series were games I visited often when I was younger and to say I enjoyed them would be a massive understatement. As you can imagine then the kid in me came hurtling back to the surface when I knew they were both being remastered. The Crash Bandicoot remaster lived up to the hype so that meant I had high hopes when it came to the Spyro Reignited Trilogy, and thankfully I’m pleased to say that it doesn’t disappoint. Everything about this trilogy has been given the modern touch and from the very good visuals and sound design you can tell that a lot of thought and effort has gone into this remaster. It also carries a retro vibe with it as well and if you enjoyed the original game’s you’ll be pleased to know that the story is as funny as ever and the controls feel better than ever as well. At the end of the day then even though the camera can be a little bit of a pain at times this trilogy doesn’t suffer with any major issues. Instead it stays true to the original games and offers you a modern touch that breath life into the fantastic franchise that is Spyro. Full Review »

    Great remake :) Sad to see the PC losers giving this a poor rating just because they miss out on great games.
