Spyro Returns With True Dragon Flight in New Game

Toys For Bob, the developers behind the new Spyro the Dragon game, revealed during the Xbox Game Showcase that the upcoming title will feature 'true dragon flight' for the first time. This mechanic presents a unique challenge, as the developers noted there are few comparable games that offer the same level of verticality and freedom of movement. The studio emphasized that Spyro's flight will feel distinct from other flying mechanics in games, such as those found in flight simulators or superhero titles like Iron Man. The new game, Spyro: A Realm Beyond, promises a more open and dynamic world, with level design that incorporates true flight as a core gameplay element. Voice actor Tom Kenny, known for his role as SpongeBob SquarePants, will return to voice Spyro. The game is set to release in Spring 2027 on multiple platforms.

Spyro Voice Actor Tom Kenny Returns For New Game

Spyro: A Realm Beyond, the first new Spyro game not tied to the Skylanders spin-off, is set for release in 2027. Despite Tom Kenny's fame from voicing SpongeBob Squarepants, he was eager to return as Spyro, according to creative director Lou Studdert. Kenny's enthusiasm and deep connection to the franchise made him the ideal choice for the role. The game will feature Spyro as an older dragon with enhanced movement capabilities, including flight. This version of Spyro marks a return to the original style of the series, developed by Toys For Bob after regaining independence and signing a deal with Microsoft.
