i’ll try keeping it short and put the longer explanation under the readmore! Spyro Reignited Trilogy is a remake of the Spyro the Dragon trilogy by Insomniac Games on the original PlayStation, consisting of Spyro the Dragon (1998), Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage, and Spyro: Year of the Dragon. Have you ever seen this strange blue-themed, helmet-less gnasty gnorc while playing through the PAL (europe) version of spyro 1? It's handled by Toys For Bob of Skylanders fame, with Sanzaru Games and Technicolor assisting the development, particularly the third. here are two more videos that i unearthed around the same period by doing advanced searches x x Screenshots above were taken from two spyro PAL let’s plays x x posted 2012 and earlier.

another easy pointer that you have this copy is the title screen says “PRESS START” instead of “START GAME” (also, deutsch is spelled incorrectly.)Īlso note that despite switching languages, the words PRESS START stays in english instead of switching to the selected language like the normal PAL version If you’ve encountered him, you may have (or have had) an uncommon PAL version of the game, which differs from the standard release. Here’s a side-by-side comparison of the copy in question (seen left), to the standard PAL version (seen right, which most people have and is easy to find online as well) this is where i need your help - I tried to make them more accurate/make them look like natives. I'm 99 sure that the originals are meant to be monkeys. (a bit more info on this copy and why i’m looking for it below) If you could please boot your old PAL discs or roms of EU spyro the dragon and check the title screen for the “ PRESS START” text above the language selector, i would be very appreciative! if you find it, please contact me via ask, IM, or email me kendyliris(at) and RT has actually done a good job with that, But I always saw these guys as native humans, like crazy looking people that lived in the trees, I realize now that they're not. Update: i’ve been informed that someone finally acquired this build! it’s not publicly available yet but, it will eventually be documented and released just like the other spyro 1 prototypes/pre-release builds that have been on - but this time as the first PAL-region pre-release build.

Very interesting how the many the PAL changes (START GAME rather than ‘press start’, bloodless gnorc swords in dark hollow, changed gem placements in metalhead) aren’t implemented yet and still resemble the USA version, in a build only a few days older than the final european one If the disc image info is accurate, the build date seems to be just a few days before the final PAL build.
