One of the little-known features of the original Spyro the Dragon was the cheat codes that can be entered to change the appearance of gaming’s favourite purple dragon. This guide will give you a list of the codes that can be enabled in each game in the Spyro Reignited Trilogy. With these cheats, you can explore all the secrets that this retro gaming compilation has to offer.

To activate these codes, you will need to enter them on the pause screen, and then press the button sequence provided. A chime will sound if the code is entered correctly. None of these cheats will disable the achievements, so feel free to use them as much as you like.
