The first brand new Spyro the Dragon game in 18 years is being developed by Toys for Bob
Spyro: A Realm Beyond is coming next year and will be on Game Pass
A new Spyro the Dragon game is in development, it’s been announced.
As revealed during the Xbox Games Showcase, the game – which is titled Spyro: A Realm Beyond – is currently being worked on by Toys for Bob.
The game, which will also be available on Xbox Game Pass on day one, will be released in Spring 2027.
When it was part of Activision, Toys for Bob was best known for the Skylanders series of toys-to-life games, which featured Spyro for the entirety of the series (the first game was titled Skylanders: Spyro’s Adventure).
When Skylanders ended, Toys for Bob then developed the Spyro Reignited Trilogy, which consisted of remakes of the first three Spyro the Dragon games.
The studio, which was founded in 1989 before being acquired by Activision in 2005, split from the publisher in 2024 to go it alone.
A few months later, however, it was announced that the newly independent studio was still working with Xbox Game Studios on an unannounced title, which it now appears was this one.
Not counting the Skylanders games and the remake trilogy, there have been eight mainline Spyro console games, the last of which was 2008’s The Legend of Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon.
