July 06, 2007 in Press Release comments 14

Sierra Entertainment, a division of Vivendi Games, today announced The Legend of Spyro™: The Eternal Night, the latest installment in the 17 million-unit-selling Spyro™ franchise and a continuation of the new The Legend of Spyro trilogy of games. The game is expected to release this autumn for the PlayStation®2 computer entertainment system, Wii™, Game Boy® Advance and Nintendo DS™ and mobile phones.

The legend continues in the second installment of The Legend of Spyro trilogy with the Ape King arriving at the Temple of Souls in an effort to usher in a new age of darkness. As Spyro, players must unlock the secrets behind a series of strange visions that he is having and find the power to defeat this terrifying new force.

“We’re really excited to continue the re-emergence of one of video gaming’s most popular characters through this ongoing trilogy,” said Al Simone, senior vice president, Global Marketing for Sierra Entertainment . “The Legend of Spyro: The Eternal Night takes the action and excitement of The Legend of Spyro: A New Beginning to the next level with new breath attacks, fury modes, and the introduction of the new ‘Dragon Time’ ability to deliver an exciting experience that Spyro fans and gamers of all ages will love.”

Returning to provide voices for The Legend of Spyro™: The Eternal Night are leading Hollywood actors Elijah Wood (Frodo Baggins in The Lord of the Rings trilogy) as Spyro and Gary Oldman (Sirius Black from the Harry Potter films) as Ignitus, the Fire Dragon Elder and Spyro’s mentor.

The Legend of Spyro: The Eternal Night continues the strong action-infused gameplay focus established in The Legend of Spyro: A New Beginning and takes it even further with exciting new powers, including:

• Four new, upgradeable Breath Attacks (one for each element type), such as Ice Bomb, Electric Orb, Earth Vine, Enhanced Fire
• Four new elemental melee moves, including Comet Dash, Artic Blast, Earth Pound, Electric Spin
• Four new Fury attacks – Earth, Electricity, Ice, Fire
• Monstrous new and explosive boss battles against the likes of Skabb the Pirate, Gaul the Ape King and more

      just because a game got bad reviews doesnt mean that you wont like it. I mean, some people dont like certain games and say bad stuff about them, that doesnt mean you shouldnt try the game out if you had wanted to.

    I have a friend who loves Spyro. Maybe not "loves" Spyro but he still likes it a little.

    I may get the game. But it will have to depend on how the reviews are first.

    They should've cut the serious out after "A Dragon's Tail". That would've ended it with a good, solid ending. Now they're just milking a successful franchise for more money. I think the Trilogy would be good, but with a different character, like Spyro should've grown up and had a son or something.


    ...I don't even know what I'm talking about. I just enjoyed the originals so much I don't want them milking the games I used to love so they can get more money... It's just killing the whole idea of Spyro.

    All of the PS2 Spyro games weren't that fun in my opinion. Hopefully they change up this one to make it feel more like the Ps1 Spyro games.

    I played all the Spyro games on the first Playstation. Didn't bother with any for the PS2. I will try this out on the Wii though.
