Another core Spyro move, Charging has Spyro point his horns forward and charge at great speed, destroying Vases and killing enemies, including metal ones. Press this command to use the Charge Attack. Flame attacks are ineffective against metal objects and enemies, however.


A fundamental Spyro move, the fire will spread out in a cone and follow Spyro’s head, destroying Baskets and killing small and Large enemies. Press this command to spit Spyro’s iconic Flame attack. If you’re using First-Person View whilst Spyro is holding something in his mouth or has Superflame, the view will be in actual first-person and have a circle in the middle for precise aiming. In the original version of the game, this is the only way to look above or below Spyro. Hold down this command to put the camera right behind Spyro’s head, then use the Left Stick to peer about. If your preference is for the original camera, you can activate it in the Options menu, which allows you to rotate the camera with the triggers. In the Reignited version of the game, moving the camera is always assigned to the Right Analog Stick on the controller, which allows you to tilt the camera up and down to peer over ledges or up in the air to more thoroughly explore the environment.

Scroll down to the very bottom of the list and assign L2 to Right Stick Left and R2 to Right Stick Right. Hold down the PS button to bring up the Quick Menu, press Settings, then Controller Settings, then Assign Buttons. If you’re playing the PS1 version on a PlayStation Vita, you can actually remap the camera controls to the right analog stick to make it like the Reignited version. The camera by default set to Passive Mode, where it won’t move unless you tell it to, whereas in Active Mode it always rotates to the direction Spyro is facing. If you’re playing the original PlayStation version of the game, or are on PC, rotate the camera use L2/R2 on PS1 or 1/3 on PC. Spyro is playable on an original PlayStation control pad on PlayStation 1, but using a Dual Analog Controller or a DualShock is preferable due to the finer degree of control on the Left Stick. To move Spyro, use the Left Stick or the D-Pad, or the WASD/Arrow Keys on PC.
