Spyro Reignited Trilogy will feature new music from renowned musician and composer Stewart Copeland, Activision and Toys for Bob have announced.

Having penned the soundtrack for the original 90s platforming trilogy, Copeland, who is probably best known for being a member of The Police alongside dad rocker Sting, has composed a new piece known as Tiger Train for Spyro's remastered antics.

Described as an 'orchestral-rock journey,' Tiger Train is an intro piece that plucks familiar elements from original PlayStation trilogy, so it's sure to appeal to old farts like me who love a good excuse to dabble in some nostalgia. 

Speaking of nostalgia, Spyro Reignited Trilogy is going one step further to remind you why the 90s were the best decade ever by giving you the option to select between Copeland's original score or his remastered efforts. 

How cool is that?

'Creating new music for the Spyro Reignited Trilogy has been incredibly fun and nostalgic for me,' said Copeland. 'Seeing how the fans loved the original series and soundtrack was a very heart-warming experience 20 years ago, and being able to revisit that fun with the new game has brought things full circle.'

'I can’t wait for players to hear the new intro title track and enjoy the option to play the remastered game to my original music when the trilogy arrives this fall. ‘Tiger Train’ includes some of my favorite themes from the original soundtrack, which I’m sure the Spyro faithful will appreciate!'

Spyro Reignited Trilogy is due out for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on September 21.

The game includes full from-the-ground-up-remakes of the Spyro the Dragon, Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage, and Spyro: Year of the Dragon, offering over 100 stages all spruced up in high-definition.
