Spyro: Reignited Trilogy-Exclusive and Special Cheats

While Spyro: Reignited Trilogy brings back cheats from the original trilogy, some are brand-new additions to the franchise. One example is the Retro Spyro, which changes Spyro’s render to look like he stepped out of the PS1 games. Others are game exclusives for Ripto’s Rage and Year of the Dragon.

Black Sunglasses:

Pride Glasses (Nintendo Switch only)

Retro Spyro:

Squid Skateboard (Year of the Dragon)

Superflame Powerup in Ripto’s Rage

This cheat works a little differently than others. Not only is it game-exclusive, but it also requires players to get all 10,000 Gems and 64 Orbs in one playthrough of Ripto’s Rage. Once this requirement has been met, Spyro has the option of a permanent Superflame in all-new save files for Ripto’s Rage only.
