Activision adds classic Spyro subtitles months after fan outcry [Updated]

More than 35 minutes of Spyro Reignited Trilogy cut scenes, none of which can be enjoyed by deaf or hard-of-hearing gamers (or those with the TV on mute).

Update (March 13, 2019): Four months after its release, the latest patch notes for Spyro Reignited Trilogy note that the game has now "added subtitles in all languages (across all three games) for previously unsupported cinematics." The subtitles, which can be toggled on or off, include "character headers to identify active speakers; succinct line splits for readability; [and] colored text for improved character association in most languages," according to the notes.

Activision and Toys for Bob have yet to add similar subtitle options to 2017's Crash Bandicoot N-Sane Trilogy.
