Spyro 3: Year of the Dragon is a great game by itself, but with the combination of the original two games, Spyro 3 is made even better. Due to the remastering of the games, the games flow together even better so the minimal improvements between Spyro and Spyro: Year of the Dragon aren’t as noticeable. The worlds are lush, the character designs are great, and even the voice acting is fun and builds the story. The graphics of the game were an improvement over the original Spyro on the PlayStation version, but the Spyro the Dragon of Reignited is perfect throughout. Still not sure why a firebreathing dragon needs a tank… I do kind of like the top-down Sparx levels that play like S mash TV or Commando. I always wish that you could explore with some of the “special” characters in an open world format (but especially when Spyro was originally released, that wasn’t quite possible). The new characters are fun, but they are probably a bit underused. I still dislike races and “speed” gaming and there are a few levels that are challenging as a result. The gameplay and story are pretty much the same so if you mastered other Spyro games, this game falls easily in play. While all the games are solid, it felt like this entry had the most variety and quite a bit of fun side missions and gameplay that helped create enough variety that if you played Spyro, Spyro 2, and Spyro 3 in order and one after the other, it didn’t feel like you are just rehashing the previous video games. Spyro 3: Year of the Dragon really mastered the experience of Spyro, but it was a cumulative effect. The game seemed completely in my wheelhouse as a fan of Mario, and I finally got to play the series through with the Spyro Reignited Trilogy…and the games held up throughout the decades. Not having a PlayStation, Spyro was one of the games of the system that I most coveted. A remastered version of the game was released in 2018 in the Spyro Reignited Trilogy which was released on multiple platforms. Following Spyro 2: Ripto’s Rage! in 1999, the game was released to positive reviews. Spyro 3: Year of the Dragon (or sometimes just Spyro: Year of the Dragon) was a PlayStation exclusive platformer adventure video game developed by Insomniac Games in 2000. Spyro and Sparx discover that they aren’t alone in their quest to stop the Sorceress with Hunter, Sheila the Kangaroo, Bentley the Yeti, Agent 9 the Monkey, and Sergeant Byrd the Penguin helping them along the way. With the future of all dragons threatened, Spyro and his friend Sparx must travel the land to retrieve the eggs and stop the Sorceress. Unfortunately, the new eggs being delivered to his land have been intercepted by Bianca who is working for the evil Sorceress. It is the Year of the Dragon, and Spyro and his friends are celebrating. I’ve often said I really want more skateboarding and racing levels
