The Legend of Spyro: A New Beginning is a 2006 action-adventure video game action-adventure video game in the Spyro series, and served as the first reboot for the series. It is the first installment in The Legend of Spyro trilogy. The game was released for the Game Boy Advance, Nintendo DS, GameCube, PlayStation 2 Xbox, and mobile. It features the voice talents of Elijah Wood as Spyro, Gary Oldman as Ignitus, David Spade as Sparx, and Cree Summer as Cynder.
A New Beginning uses a more action-based focus than previous Spyro games. Rather than the previous focus on platforming, the gameplay is now more combat based. Spyro has a variety of combat moves as well as four different breath attacks: fire, electricity, ice and earth, which he can use as both long range and short range attacks. Spyro can also use furies, huge blasts of elemental energy. The game has fewer levels than previous Spyro games, with six levels that progress from a starting point towards a final destination and boss encounter in a linear fashion, and two rail shooter style flying levels adjoining them. It takes about six hours to complete the game.
The GBA, DS and mobile games follow the same storyline, but have unique gameplay and entirely different graphics, as is to be expected.
The game was followed by The Legend of Spyro: The Eternal Night in 2007.
