Next Game - Spyro's Kingdom (Test Title)

Aura24 · Oct 31, 2010 9:55 PM

I'm sure most of you had heard of the next Spyro game's test title, Spyro's Kingdom. It is an upcoming Action/ Adventure game that is due to be released in 2011, what month or time we don't know. A voice actor, Tom Bromhead, was revealed to be voicing one of the characters in the game. It is currently unknown what universe this game will take place in.

What do you guys think about this upcoming game? And what do you think the test title will refer to what universe?

Trasher258 · Nov 01, 2010 4:12 AM

As you said, we can only speculate for the time being.

The title, referring to a theme or topic usually, suggests a few things. One, this kingdom may be referring to the original series. Two, a developement of one may be taking place in TLoS if not one is already in place. Three, addressing it as Spyro's Kingdom could mean he has started some sort of organized order or is just an inspiration for one that someone else builds upon his ideals.

Now what I want to know is how did you find out that it's an action/adventure game... or did you just make an assumption?

From one of the official proof sources of "Spyro's Kingdom", this Dutch Spread Sheet: http://212.123.29.37/publicfolder/Prijs … k%2038.xls You need Microsoft Excel to see it.

It shows the game's genre, release date, and also the test title for the franchise.

Kingdom definately sounds more like the old school dragon realms, like the the Artisan home. But like I've said before, Spyro's Kingdom sounds like a title test that could've been made for other games, like AHT, SL, and AotR/A.

Aura24 · Nov 02, 2010 12:47 AM

I wouldn't mind if the next game will be set in the Old universe. If it is, then it was Activision's decision, not the producers I bet.

Another thing I can guess that the title test refers to is the awesomeness of multiple playable characters. The ability to play as someone other than spyro is something other games have thrived on. Maybe "Kingdom" incorporates the extended family that Spyro has.

JazzJackrabbit · Nov 02, 2010 12:58 AM

I'm hoping for gameplay elements from all of the generations. I like the portal system in the first 3 games and the reliability of the attacks. I like the multiple element thing and I like being able to switch characters in DOTD.

If the gameplay is like the classics, and if the story is like LOS with more funny moments, I'd be happy.

I thought the exact same thing. As soon as I heard the title, I thought of those castles in the Artisans Home.

Has anyone else noticed that another pointer towards it being an Original game is the fact that it's on Wii and DS? If you think about it, the more mature/action games are always on the PS3 and Xbox360 and the kiddy games are always on the Wii and DS.

Just a thought.

Original game's...Unlikely I'm thinking of new universe

Zakaweshi · Nov 02, 2010 11:13 AM

the original games adventuring sense and a few other things combined with DOTD's graphics and functionality, seems like an awsome game if it is that

Originals are gone..they lost the charm ever since YOTD ended..Unless they can redo that charm again I have lost hope...Heck even the crash games seem boring now, the only thing I am interested about them was the Ride a giant monster and go mad idea

What I'm saying is...Go back..Go Back to the first ones....LOS just bored me to death...No humour what so ever and some great Characters concepts that got mind *bleep*ed by some person who sounds like he writes Fan fiction for a living

the name "Spyro's Kingdom" doesn't denote the seriousness/emotion/drama/etc that TLOS had.

i'm thinking, either a new universe or an older game.

riverhippo · Nov 03, 2010 4:24 AM

I got it!!! They must be combining Spyro with Kingdom Hearts. Thus, the title test...

Jackson117 · Nov 03, 2010 5:31 AM

That would...I would play it.

Please Christ no.

They could either be making a new universe, do it in the LoS universe that has a light-hearted atmosphere like the originals, or do it in the Old Spyro universe.

...or a star wars type game, or a racing game, or an old atari type game, or an RPG, or an...

JazzJackrabbit · Nov 03, 2010 11:18 PM

I wouldn't mind a Spyro RPG, as long as it's good. (says the guy who wants a Super Smash Bros. strategy game similar to Fire Emblem. Or a Jazz Jackrabbit stealth game like MGS.)

Jackson117 · Nov 04, 2010 4:17 AM

Speaking of that...some bits gave me nightmares

Trasher258 · Nov 04, 2010 5:13 AM

I'm still skeptical about the whole prequal to reboot move they made shortly after announcing ANB. If they are trying to do it again then be my guest. I've been knitting the two 'universes' together and surprisingly it isn't that hard to do. The two moons are present in both so that's something... but I shouldn't get my hopes up.

If they do go that direction then they have to explain where Cynder was the whole time.

They'd do it that same way they introduced Ember and Flame. Like they've 'always' been around. You know, Ember character was probably created within a hour artist brain-storming meeting.

They could change a few characters around, too. Elder Magnus was in the same universe yet he changed from brown and normal to pink, plump and quite gay-sounding (I don't mean that offensively, he just sounds homosexual).

Well of course. And if they really wanted to ruin the dragon race in the Spyro universe, they could explain skin color as a fashion, meaning that dragons could change their color by simply putting on a different skin, or dying it a different color. I've seen it done in some cartoons and comic books.
