Activision and Toys for Bob lit up the Xbox Games Showcase 2026 with the reveal of Spyro: A Realm Beyond, a brand‑new chapter in the beloved platforming series.
Launching in Spring 2027 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, Nintendo Switch 2 and PC, this marks Spyro’s long‑awaited return after years of silence.
Lost in a Strange New World
This time, Spyro finds himself trapped in an unknown realm, cut off from everything familiar.
His mission is simple but daunting: find a way home before an invading force known as the Scavs overwhelms the world.
The threat is bigger, the stakes are higher and Spyro will need more than fire breath to survive.
To face this new enemy, he will form alliances with fresh characters who join him on his journey.
Tom Kenny Returns to Voice the Dragon
Fans can celebrate the return of Tom Kenny, the iconic voice behind Spyro (and SpongeBob SquarePants).
His performance brings the classic charm and energy that defined the original trilogy, now paired with a more ambitious story and world.
Free Flight Takes Center Stage
For the first time in the series, Spyro can freely fly across expansive environments.
Not gliding. Not hovering.
Actual, full‑control dragon flight.
This evolution opens the door to:
- Larger worlds
- Vertical exploration
- Aerial combat
- High‑speed traversal
It is the boldest mechanical leap the franchise has ever taken.
The Most Ambitious Spyro Game Yet
Toys for Bob describes A Realm Beyond as the largest and most ambitious Spyro adventure to date, signaling a fresh direction for the series.
New worlds, new allies, new enemies and a more cinematic approach aim to reintroduce Spyro to a new generation while honoring the spirit fans love.
Spyro: A Realm Beyond is shaping up to be a vibrant, high‑flying rebirth for the purple dragon, ready to reclaim his place among platforming legends.
