Spyro

PlayStation dragon mascot

Spyro is a purple dragon character from a video game series of the same name, first appearing in 1998.

The games follow Spyro through fantasy worlds where he breathes fire, charges enemies, and collects gems.

The franchise helped define 3D platforming games and remains nostalgic for players who grew up in the late 1990s: I spent hours playing Spyro as a kid.
