Item Description

Every twelve years the dragons celebrate the Year of the Dragon with a fresh batch of eggs, and this time the party ends with a hole in the ground and 150 eggs stolen. A mysterious Sorceress and her rabbit apprentice Bianca have carried them off to the Forgotten Worlds, and Spyro, Sparx and Hunter dive in after them. What follows is the biggest, busiest and most generous of Insomniac's original Spyro games, and the last one the studio made.

Year of the Dragon keeps everything that made the first two games so easy to love, from the gliding and charging to the flame breath and the gem-stuffed worlds, then keeps adding surprises. Spyro skateboards, drives tanks and pilots submarines and speedboats, and Sparx gets levels of his own as a top-down shooter. The real headline is the new cast: Sheila the kangaroo, Sergeant Byrd the rocket-firing penguin, Bentley the club-swinging yeti and Agent 9, the hyperactive space monkey with a laser blaster. Each has dedicated levels with a completely different feel, and Moneybags, naturally, demands a pile of gems before he lets any of them help.

The four homeworlds, Sunrise Spring, Midday Gardens, Evening Lake and Midnight Mountain, branch into levels filled with side challenges, races and mini-games, so there is always another egg just over the next hill. Stewart Copeland returns with another bright, percussive soundtrack, and the writing has the same affectionate humor, especially once Bianca starts to question whose side she should be on. Behind the scenes, Insomniac built elaborate copy protection into the disc that quietly sabotaged pirated copies, a story developers still tell today.

Collectors know it as the finale of the original PlayStation trilogy and the version the 2018 Reignited Trilogy remade. Playing the original shows why that trilogy left such a mark: polished controls, worlds bursting with color and a confidence about variety that few 3D platformers of 2000 could match.

About the game

Spyro: Year of the Dragon is the third installment in the Spyro series and the last Spyro game Insomniac developed. In this 3D adventure, Spyro have to retrieve 150 eggs that the evil Sorceress has stolen from Dragonworld. To survive, he will have to utilize all of his signature moves along with several he's recently picked up, like the ability to control vehicles like tanks, submarines, and speedboats. As an extra bonus, you have the option to choose from a wacky cast of characters: Sheila the kangaroo, Sergeant Byrd the flying penguin, Bentley the Yeti and Agent 9 the space monkey.
