A brand-new Spyro game is on its way, video game studio Toys for Bob revealed during the 2026 Xbox Games Showcase.
Titled Spyro: A Realm Beyond, the game is set for a spring 2027 release. It is the first new Spyro game since 2008’s The Legend of Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon, and is created in collaboration between Toys for Bob and Microsoft’s Activision.
Some elements of Spyro: A Realm Beyond will be familiar to fans of the franchise. Tom Kenny is back to voice the title character, a role he’s played since 1999’s Spyro 2: Ripto’s Rage.

However, some aspects will be totally new to the Spyro games. Most notably, its new flight mechanic, which Toys for Bob describes as “not gliding, not a limited set of flight levels. True dragon flight.”
A teaser released at the Xbox Games Showcase revealed what some of this flight gameplay would look like, showing Spyro soaring far off the ground.
According to Lou Studdert, associate creative director for Spyro: A Realm Beyond at Toys for Bob, players can just “press a button” to get fully airborne. There are no restrictions on when or where players can do this, but, of course, the game will force them to think strategically about how to use their flight within the environment.
The true dragon flight, along with Spyro’s new, larger-winged look, make their debuts in Spyro: A Realm Beyond, coming to Xbox Series X and S, PC, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch 2 next spring.
