"We're deeply passionate about staying true to the legacy of the original three Spyro games with the Spyro Reignited Trilogy,” Paul Yan, chief creative officer at Toys for Bob said in a release. “We've poured a lot of love into making the personalities and worlds feel just like fans remember them, while also keeping the game collection surprisingly fresh with lush, high definition detail. We're bringing back the Spyro we all fell in love with 20 years ago."
