Will all 3 games be on the disc? I know they delayed it, I hope that was the reason why.

The entirety of Spyro 1 and parts of 2 & 3 are on the disc; the delay was because 3 wasn't finished. The game size in total is 67.5 GB, which exceeds the capacity of the discs that are used for Xbox One and PS4.

It was not. Apparently it was to fix some huge problems in YOTD as well as fix up stuff in the other two games. There's a 4chan post apparently from a TFB dev that complained that YOTD was almost coming out unfinished and had really poor optimization all around, but we never found out if it's true, and the final version seems to work well so far.

^Yes, but not all of Spyro 2 and 3 levels are on disc. You must download an update of 19GB size to get the full Spyro 2 and 3 experience.

I hope everyone are getting the game the next 2 days. I can't wait to talk about this masterpiece with everyone here. <3

Seems like you are really liking it so far, I’m glad it lived up to your expectations!

Man, only 2 days now, I can barely contain my excitement!

Yeah I only dont like the framerate drops so far! "
I hope they'll release an performance patch on release day but I don't have high hopes for it cause they would include it in version 1.02 patch or?

Heard about that, it’s honestly quite annoying that a modern title can’t run as smooth as a 20 years old game which was equally “heavy” considering when it first released.
But sure, nothing a patch can’t fix, they did perfectly fix N. Sane Trilogy’s long loading screens.
No idea if they’ll be gone after Tuesday’s patch, though.

Hope they aren’t too frequent or are strictly related to certain situations, at least.

Yeah a lot of modern games have this problems <__<

Does anyone know if there are any new orb challenges ? I believe that Game Informer wrote about that in one of their article ...

crazy to think this game's gonna be out in 2 days holy ****

i won't get it at launch because i need the money for LGPE and smash but i'll get it for like christmas or something

I'm not sure if I should be worried about watching early Let's Plays for the Reignited Trilogy. I don't want to be spoiled by the enhancements, but at the same time, they are games I've played many times before. I can't decide.

Depends on if you have a PS4/Xbox or not maybe? I'm watching because I just have a Switch and won't get to play it until next summer, if ever (depends on how much longer my eyes hold out). It might be worth watching some levels if you have issues with things being too bright or motion sickness; that's more of an issue with Reignited than it was with the Insomniac versions, I think.

I'm hearing that various aspects of Spyro 3 in the Reignited Trilogy are lacking considerable polish. Everything from lighting just flat out not working in some cutscenes, animations being bugged, and various gameplay jank.

Maybe the day 1 patch will fix it but if not, that could be a big oof. I was hoping the delay would iron that stuff out.

Man that really sucks. I played Spyro as a kid and have been really excited ever since the Crash Bandicoot remaster because I just knew it was a matter of time before my favorite childhood video game got the same treatment. I probably won't get to play it until Christmas so hopefully the game is more polished by that time.

What kinds of problems can you point out in this video?

I'm watching the speedrun of all three games at AGDQ and there's definitely more polish overall in the first game than the other two. It's in the little things and I have a feeling TfB is going to be working on improving the look and patching out glitches over the next few months.

The Spyro 1 level transitions are pretty great and full of character, for example, while the transitions for the other two games...aren't. It's just Spyro flying sideways against a kinda dull skybox background. Just having him flying at a 3/4 angle the way he does in the first game gave that so much more character.

Is out

Well in Austrailia at least

Is Activision planing a Spyro App?
The copyright text at the main menu is mentioning a App. o__o

Are the current reviews coming from people who downloaded the Day 1 patch early?

My copy is out for delivery!

Same!
I can’t believe I’ll finally be back in Artisans, tomorrow evening!

pfft the switch version will be graphically downgraded and scaled to 720p, the pc version is the obvious choice if u want a more polished port

I bought a second-hand Xbox One, just for Spyro!
(I do have one game for it so far, the Lego Jurassic Park game.)

After this week, I might get other games.
I still use my Xbox 360, Gamecube and PlayStation 2.

my pc is 8 year old and if you think graphic resolution only count you're gullible.... I am talking about all the glitch that need to be cleaned

I only have a PS2 .. and a relatively old laptop. I do however plan to get a new laptop, which I may use for Spyro Reignited if it ever comes to PC.

Predictable, I know, but I can’t stop playing it in my head.



The name of the band is fitting as well, since this is Europe’s final countdown.
The dragon is almost finally back.

when did he leave

The Dragon Realms?
Quite some time ago.

Our heart and the videogame industry?
Never.

Out in Europe, by the way, only a couple hours left for the US!

I'm excited for the game too, what I'm NOT excited about is waiting one year. Yay... https://www.nintendoenthusiast..._medium=twitter

i hope this game doesnt suck

I mean, we may not have to. Odds are they're working on it, but don't want to announce the PC and Switch ports yet because they just started (If they have begun, of course). I feel "not currently slated for Nintendo Switch" is inaccurate. It seems that they're just holding off on an announcement until both ports are nearly complete.

Besides, whose gonna announce a port in an interview? A day before release no less. They really can't say anything about it yet.

Still, I can’t really understand why they are holding off the announcement of a PC and Switch version when the game already releases on a console which never saw the originals even in its former iterations.
There’s no surprise, not after Crash at least.

Perhaps they don’t want to announce it until they are almost finished, so that it won’t be too long between the reveal and the release.

Maybe the future versions won’t need an update and will be playable right after the initial install.

The reason they likely haven't announced a PC or Switch port was simply because TfB already had their hands full with the massive game itself and making it work on Xbox and PS4. Adding two more systems, one of which will have to be downgraded in some aspects, would just be too much. Yeah, they could have gotten more studios to do the porting, but that would have added to the budget. It's likely cheaper to just have TfB to do all ports when they are able to.


Besides, having Spyro on Switch and PC encourages double dipping for people with multiple consoles and both are perfect for it. PC has the specs,(And even modding), while Switch has portability aspect.


The more I think about it, with all the glitches and issues the game has (while still being very good) I'm somewhat relived the PC and Switch ports are coming later. It gives TfB time to fix up it's issues. I still plan to get it tomorrow (Hoping to get a PS4 soon to follow), but once it comes to Switch, my PS4 copy may not be touched ever again. I'll have other games by then, so I'm not throwing the console away though.

The day is finally here! Enjoy the game everybody!

i can confirm that butts exist for those who were worrying

that feel when u get the game for £8

How are you guys enjoying Dark Souls 2?

My copy still hasn't arrived yet.

hahaha I was waiting for some hack reviewer to compare it to dark sou!s

No sign of the postman today The text lied

Same here. I got a text from GAME last night saying that it'll arrive in today's post. Is that what happened to you?

I wished they would have included A Heros Tail to the remakes. xD

Spyro 2 is my least favorite. Idk but most of the levels are too linear and are not so magical and atmospheric than Spyro 1 worlds

Remember back a while ago when I mentioned a third blank option for ordering the game, well it's back

Yes!!!

Just finished Artisans and Stone Hill.
I’m at a loss of words, it’s too good to be real.

Like... I already saw the aesthetic, so no surprises from that point of view (can’t wait to play Dark Hollow tomorrow, which I’ve seen basically nothing of except for the clip in the reveal trailer and the PS4 dynamic theme), but the actual controls, the intro cutscene and everything else which just had to be tried to be appreciated truly surprised me.
Of course there are minor things which I’m not super keen about, but they basically disappear compared to the rest.

I’ll apologize in advance since I know this isn’t a spoiler topic anymore, but I have to talk about something and I don’t want to risk seeing or reading anything spoilery by going in the right topic.
It’s pretty big, so read at your own risk:

I just started the first game up, and I think I'm noticing some frame rate drops when Spyro is charging.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but were there 2 patches released today?

It should have downloaded Version 1.02, but the Update History only says 1.01.

Well, I bought it today, at Wal-Mart, the Xbox One version.


I LOVE IT!!!

The Xbox One controls are perfect!

67 GB how TFB? Crash was only 24 GB on PS4
