Spyro Returns on PS5 in A Realm Beyond, His First Original Game in Nearly 20 Years 1

It's official: Spyro the Dragon is coming back in a whole new game.

Developed by Toys for Bob, Spyro: A Realm Beyond is heading to PS5 in Spring 2027. Here's the announcement trailer:

It's been about eight years since Spyro: Reignited Trilogy, and close to 20 years since the last original game, 2007's The Legend of Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon. It's fair to say his return is overdue.

Perhaps the biggest change in A Realm Beyond is that Spyro, now a little older, is capable of full flight. On Xbox Wire, Toys for Bob head Paul Yan talks about how it's at the core of the new game's design.

The team's main goal "is to give the player the freedom and fantasy of dragon flight – to be able to take the skies at a moment’s notice and make interesting and active decisions to flow through the spaces as you charge on the ground and now soar through the air," Yan says. "This is such a significant addition to the game, and we’ve built a whole world around that promise."

Other details are scarce right now, but it's great to have Spyro back after so long.
