Activision just announced Spyro Reignited Trilogy Remastered for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One with a September 21, 2018 launch date. While they have yet to reveal anything for the other platforms (eg: PC and Switch), Nintendo UK may have accidentally spilled the beans on this one.
The Official Nintendo UK Store opened pre-orders for the game for £39.99 (approximately P2,900) earlier but it was then removed after a few minutes. The aforementioned listing had a different working title (Spyro the Dragon Remastered) and had no release date nor any accompanying photos. Its description seems on-point, however.
The web master could have just entered a placeholder entry and accidentally set it to public. On the other hand, Nintendo may have been saving this announcement for E3 2018 or future Nintendo Directs, prompting its immediate removal. Both of these are just mere speculations from our part though. No official re-clarifications have been posted at the time of writing but we will share any new updates as they come.
It is also interesting to note that Toys for Bob, the developers who ported Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy for the Nintendo Switch, are the ones working on this remaster.
