Activision Responds To ‘Spyro Reignited Trilogy’ Missing Subtitles

4.1
Apparently there are subtitles for the later two games in the Trilogy, namely Spyro 2: Ripto’s Rage and Spyro: Year of the Dragon, so players can understand what the characters are saying. However, they appear to be a no-show as far as the first Spyro the Dragon is concerned, and a few players are frustrated as a result.

Activision has since addressed the matter in a statement after speaking with GamePitt, and while it didn’t note when the problem would be resolved, they are looking into a possible solution. Here’s what the publisher said:

“When Toys For Bob set out to make an awesome game collection, there were certain decisions that needed to be made throughout the process. The team remained committed to keep the integrity and legacy of Spyro that fans remembered intact. The game was built from the ground up using a new engine for the team (Unreal 4), and was localized in languages that had not previously been attempted by the studio. While there’s no industry standard for subtitles, the studio and Activision care about the fans’ experience especially with respect to accessibility for people with different abilities, and will evaluate going forward.”


It’s true, the original Spyro the Dragon didn’t have subtitles for players; and Toys For Bob did put a painstaking amount of effort into the game, so we can’t fault them in the least. But it’s good to see Activision is, at the very least, aware of what the issue is, and “may” try to fix it in the future. Now it’s just a matter of when.
