Spyro Reignited Trilogy Joins Xbox Game Pass
Microsoft’s journey in integrating Activision Blizzard games into its subscription services has made significant strides recently. Over a year post-acquisition, only a select few titles have graced Xbox Game Pass. However, the latest announcement reveals that the beloved Spyro Reignited Trilogy will soon be part of this ever-expanding library, marking an exciting addition for gamers.
This remastered collection, which has achieved remarkable commercial success with over 10 million copies sold since its 2018 debut, comprises three classic titles:
- Spyro the Dragon (1998)
- Spyro 2: Ripto’s Rage! (1999)
- Spyro: Year of the Dragon (2000)
These iconic games were originally developed by Insomniac Games and have undergone a stunning revival through Toys for Bob, an Activision studio that has since restructured post-Microsoft acquisition. Excitingly, the studio confirmed Microsoft will also be publishing their upcoming project, which promises to be an innovative new entry in the Spyro series.
