Spyro The Dragon Reignited Trilogy Leaked - With Boxart (Update: screenshots too) [PS4/XB1]
- Thread starter Zippo
- Start date
Just like Naughty Dog used to help Insomniac out! History repeating itself in the best possible way. Let's not forget that VV rebuilt the Crash games from the ground up.
Detail wise it looks good, don't like the color palette usage though. Most of the charm seems completely gone.
That's a funny way of spelling Crash Nitro Kart and Crash Tag Team Racing!
It's the color palette. The colors (greens in particular) are much more lush in the original based on these screenshots. The snowy level in particular is a terrible reimagining and loses its dreamlike look. It almost looks like something out of Fortnite or Overwatch.
Why do I feel like I prefer the right image here? I really can't place my finger on it but I just like what's on the right here. From any objective standpoint the left is so much better they're not in the same league but I like the right.
The left feels almost too busy, like I won't be able to recognize the levels, and somewhat generic (like a dreamworks animation) looking.
I'll wait until they reveal the trailer but so far I'm not impressed.
Based on some information the leaker totally admitted might be out of date...
11am EDT... that's 3pm GMT... and more importantly 4pm BST... we moved the clocks forward a couple of weeks ago.
Picture on the left looks like a Fortnite map.

If you are referring to Pixelpar's tweet then no, they said 5 PM CET (4 PM UK time I believe).
Yea I can understand that (and I'm aware multiple people have already said the same thing you just happened to be the last so I'm quoting you) there's a much more consistent and aligned color palette on the original.
Spyro himself looks kind of ugly. Seems like it's running on the same engine despite different developers? I guess Spyro being a 3D platformer with camera controls could benefit a lot from a good camera and smooth frame rate, don't remember much about the game despite beating it as a kid
Spyro is easily worth this.
Spyro was my very first Videogame franchise ever, and one of my most beloved games. My fondest memories of being a 3 year old, was watching my mom play Spyro.
Toys for Bob and Vicarious Visions both worked on Skylanders for years, so I wouldn't be surprised if they shared some tech that was later used in both Crash and Spyro.
Considering the Amazon pages say the same date for the XB1 version, I imagine there isn't any.
I would welcome that with open arms.
Seems weird they'd have an XB1 listing a year early, so either Amazon goofed, the timed exclusivity is made fully transparent (can't remember this ever happening), or yeah, there's no timed exclusivity.
Aaaah, I see now. That's an interesting take on the stage's palette.
Is that trolling attempt to put the any computer entertainment diamond logo on the back

September 21st release date. 40 bucks.
It appears the leak came from Amazon. Guessing this went up a few hours early.
Looks like Toys For Bob are developing.
All credit goes to Mykonosfan. He's a gem.
NOW WITH SCEEENSHOTS
It's looking like it'll drop on the PS4/XB1 simultaneously. Switch release later at some point in time.
The main thing they need to get right is the soundtrack. I can put up with changes to the visuals but I would be seriously pissed if they ruin the music.
The trailer is online on French website jeuxvideo.com :

I do as well the problem I think is that despite them being comparison shots the newer version doesn't look like a remaster of the same area it looks vastly different both in terms of color, lighting, and general aesthetic. If you told me this was a completely new game and not a remake I'd believe you, sure the newer shot looks very pretty but it doesn't really even look like the first Spyro game. Look at the bridge as an easy example, in the remake its clearly a type of stone bridge which is fine but in the original game it doesn't really look like stone now does it? It looks made of something not quite like metal or stone, maybe even something that you wouldn't find in the normal world adding to the general sense of the mystical elements of the game. Even if you thought that bridge was stone it clearly seems to have a very artistic design to it with a certain pattern on the sides but the one on the left just looks like a bunch of stones forced together to make a bridge, its missing the more artistic aspect of the original game.

This is a comparison I think you can make to a lot of these shots, sure the newer game looks very pretty but it just doesn't even look like the same game. Compare this to the Crash reboot which sure also had a lot more graphical detail and was very pretty but you could always tell it was a remaster of the Crash games, it never looked very different but this does.
I don't think that will end up mattering to a lot of people and in motion it might look one thousand times better but even as someone who isn't really a fan of Spyro and hasn't played much of the series I can look at these comparisons and it seems pretty different when I'm not sure anyone needed it or wanted it to be.
Here's hoping. It'll be an odd feeling to play it on Xbox, but I can't justify picking it up on the Pro instead of my X since there will likely be noticeable performance advantages for the X.
Will probably also double dip on the Switch version eventually.
Why does that trailer talk about memes
Jokes aside, glad it's coming out on Xbox One together with PS4 this time.
