Spyro cheat codes: Full list and how to cheat in all the main Spyro games

21.02.2024 - 19:51 / radiotimes.com

Spyro first appeared in 1998 on the PlayStation, and he quickly joined Crash Bandicoot in becoming an icon of the era. The cute, fire-breathing, headbutting bundle of joy was a big part of our childhoods, as was his invitingly ambient world.

After a string of brilliant sequels, and a successful move to the PlayStation 2, the franchise quietened down until the Spyro Reignited Trilogy remastered the first three in 2018.

Before we list the codes themselves, let's take a look at how to input the cheats in each game. Every game is different, so check you're inputting it in the right place first!

In the first game, there are different places for different cheats (just to make things difficult!) but fear not, we'll specify where you need to be when we list them below. For the two sequels on the PS1, you just need to enter the codes on the pause menu. Much easier!

In Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly, the codes are entered while you're moving around on the field. So you don't even need to pause! For A Hero's Tail, cheats are input via the main menu.

Onto the Legend trilogy now… in The Legend of Spyro: A New Beginning, cheats are input via the pause menu. It's the same deal with The Eternal Night and Dawn of the Dragon, so nice and easy there!

And for 2018's Spyro Reignited Trilogy, it's the pause menu once again. Now let's get on with the codes.

These codes will be nice and easy for the first three, being the PlayStation exclusives they were. However, as the games progressed, Spyro flew out to other platforms.

We'll include the different variations for each console when we get there, so don't worry if you played Enter the Dragonfly on the GameCube.
