Rumour: A new Spyro game is currently in development
After the success of the Reignited Trilogy it would only make sense for Activision to return to the purple dragon of old but still, take all of this with a pinch of salt.

I’ll forever associate Nintendo with platformers and collect-a-thons. You could blame their iconic plumber in red, but it also comes from past comparisons. While Banjo-Kazooie was busy gathering up music notes, the height of digital combat realism was being experienced with Metal Gear Solid over on the Playstation. This is, of course, a gross misconception as colourful kid-friendly mascots collecting …
Activision has a few more of those remasters up its sleeves. With the publisher having scant few properties under its belt other than Call of Duty right now, Activision has realised that there’s some big money to be made when they give the past a face-lift.

While Spyro hasn’t faded into the background thanks to a stint in the Skylanders series of toys to life video games, fans have still been starving for a return to the classics. It’s that very nostalgia that Activision and developer Toys for Bob are revisiting with Spyro: Reignited Trilogy, a compilation of classics that so far looks absolutely stunning.
If you thought Activision would sit idly on their hands after the overwhelming success of Crash Bandicoot’s return, you obviously have never heard of Activision. The publisher prints money with its biggest names, but it’s it closet of dormant franchises that its looking to reignite now. And reignite it they literally will, as the Skylanders name lays on the sunset …
