Our dearest dragon is being put to the test, along with Crash Bandicoot and several other IPs at Sierra. Could this mean the death of Spyro? If Activision feels his time is over and/or he's not making enough moolah, then yes. Some Vivendi franchises like World of Warcraft, The Bourne Conspiracy, Prototype, etc. are safe from this re-pitching process. Spyro, unfortunately, is not. Will he finally be laid to rest once the merger is completed? Only time will tell.

Note, this will NOT affect the release of The Legend of Spyro: Darkest Hour. However, it will affect any Spyro games after that.

Keep in mind, this is only a rumor from a magazine. Variety broke word of the Spyro movie, though, so it may be accurate - just don't panic quite yet.

вот новость но я её не очень понял, на переводчике получился плохой перевод, я так понял это связано с будующим Спаиро

вот ещё новость:
Let's turn back the clock 11 days, 6 months, and 10 years. Where would we be? The day the first Spyro game was released. On that day a media convention was held at which Sony's marketing head Andrew House explained how Spyro would be a lucrative franchise and how it was marketable. Why does this matter? Well, if what Variety claimed is true, (see the post below), something along these lines will have to happen again due to the Vivendi/Activision merger. The benefits of Spyro will be brought back to the table and discussed in order to decide whether to keep him alive or sign off his death.

Not all games are lucky enough to last forever.
