Spyro 20th Anniversary MAP - Castle on the Hill

@@shydreameress264 Activisions Vice President of the COD franchise has stated in a private conference, how "Spyro Reignited Trilogy" and "Crash N-Sane trilogy" both sold very well....and that we should "expect new games, but beyond just pure remasters. The fans are going to want new experiences." I believe they wikl remake the whole Tlos trilogy. It is not a far extension of reality. We may have to wait at least 10 years for the game to be considered "nostalgic" but I'm telling you man...it's inevitable. I can link the article shortly.
