A supposed UI glitch suggests the upcoming Spyro Reignited Trilogy will launch on PC and Nintendo Switch, leaving fans to speculate if the game will actually reach both platforms.
Spyro the Dragon fans have yet another reason to wonder if the upcoming Spyro Reignited Trilogy will come to more platforms than just PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. A listing on the remaster trilogy’s British homepage offered pre-orders for both Nintendo Switch and PC.
The listing was found by Twitter account SpyroUniverse, a fan Twitter account devoted to Spyro the Dragon and the Spyro Reignited Trilogy. According to the account, both the U.K. website and several other countries’ renditions would let users select both PC and Nintendo Switch as platforms for pre-order.
The official American website only allows pre-orders for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One at this time. Previously, both the U.K. website and German website displayed the additional pre-order options, even for visitors checking each website from the U.S.
Intended as an HD remaster for the first three Spyro the Dragon games, the Spyro Reignited Trilogy is set to launch on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on Sept. 21, 2018. The current-gen remake features enhanced graphics, new voice lines from Spyro actor Tom Kenny, and music from original composer Stewart Copeland of The Police, with all three changes sure to delight fans new and old alike.
It remains unclear for now if the Spyro Reignited Trilogy will actually reach PC and Nintendo Switch. A report from Kotaku, however, suggested that the game would be a “one-year timed exclusive for PS4″ before reaching other systems. Whether that ends up being the case remains unclear, although the initial report’s news has largely remained accurate, sparking further speculation that Switch and PC fans may soon have a Spyro the Dragon video game to call their own.
