Activision is now taking pre-orders for Spyro Reignited Trilogy on the Switch eShop. If you take advantage of the option, you can purchase the collection in advance and download the required data ahead of time.
Spyro Reignited Trilogy releases for Switch on September 3. It’ll take up 6.2GB digitally. Since Activision isn’t including every game on the cartridge, the physical version will also have a separate download, though it’s unclear how large it will be.

GameStop Germany lists Spyro Reignited Trilogy for Switch

Update (2/11): GameStop Germany has now removed the listing. Make of that what you will.
Original (2/10): A listing has appeared on GameStop Germany for a Switch version of Spyro Reignited Trilogy. The retailer has an August 16 release date, though it could be a placeholder. We should also warn that the listing itself isn’t confirmation of an upcoming announcement.
In the past, Spyro Reignited Trilogy has been listed for Switch in a couple of places, including the Nintendo UK store and Spyro UK website. However, Toys For Bob producer Peter Kavic indicated at the end of last year that he hadn’t seen an attempt to get the games up and running on the console.

During a recent episode of the Game Informer Show, Toys For Bob producer Peter Kavic and art director Josh Nadelberg participated in an interview for Spyro Reignited Trilogy. The two were asked if it’ll be appearing on other systems, to which Kavic said the team’s “focus was on PS4 and Xbox One.” When specifically asked about Switch and if it could run on the platform, Kavic indicated that he’s “yet to even see it tried.”

Even though the US website for Spyro the Dragon only lists the upcoming Reignited Trilogy for PlayStation and Xbox, the UK site also features PC and Switch. Strangely, the Switch is even listed twice!
Spyro the Dragon has a release date of September 21, 2018, for PlayStation and Xbox. Obviously, there’s no release date set for the unannounced Switch version, assuming it’s real.

Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy is UK’s fastest selling Switch game released this year
Posted on 5 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy reached new formats last week. Interestingly, it’s the fastest selling Switch game released this year. The £30 price tag may play a factor in that.
The Xbox One and Switch versions of Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy came in at first and second on the UK charts this week. However, the Switch edition only sold 250 fewer copies.
We have a couple of other tidbits regarding the latest UK sales as well. Mario Tennis Aces’ sales dipped by 53%, though GamesIndustry says that’s “decent performance for a game in its second week on shelves.” Harvest Moon: A Light of Hope, which debuted in the UK just a few days ago, had 78% of its sales on Switch in comparison to 22% on the PlayStation 4.

When playing in handheld form, the game apparently runs a bit better, though can still occasionally drop below 30 frames per second.
