Afraid of the Dark

The Dark Master returns! The evil one and his minions are spreading out across the world, and it's up to Spyro and Cynder to join forces in combat against the rushing, dreadful horde. Familiar faces Sparx and Ignitus join the purple pair in their adventures but you'll see many new adversaries and larger than life bosses in your travels across many diverse and dramatic landscapes.

Enter the Dragons

Fans of previous Spyro titles will be ecstatic with the advancements in overall gameplay and combat system. Baby dragons only glide - but now Spyro soars to new heights and launches into flight at any time! Upgrade new devastating elemental powers with collected gems along the way as in previous adventures but now Spyro and Cynder have all new grappling abilities to throw down upon their enemies! As if that wasn't enough to chomp on, there are secret pieces of dragon armor to collect that when completed into a full suit, alter the dragons' appearance and grant the heroes incredible powers and bonuses!
