Details[]
During Season 2, N. Tropy was banished and left open a portal to the Dragon Realms, letting in the dastardly Dark Spyro and Gnasty Gnorc – who have since taken over three Spyro-themed lands. The much loved hero soon followed, but the portal to the Dragon Realm was broken in the process. It’s now up to Crash Bandicoot and Coco to defeat Dark Spyro and Gnasty Gnorc and help Spyro repair the Dragon Portal.[1]
Season 3: Battle of the Dragons adds a twelfth land called Upstream, which contains four battle runs, a collection run, one time trial and two challenge runs. Upstream debuted in the original Crash Bandicoot from 1996. In addition to the Dark Spyro and Gnasty Gnorc bosses, players will also be able to battle N. Gin and Koala Kong. Players can also complete new weekly missions to earn trophies, compete on the new seasonal leaderboard and complete the Bandicoot Pass to earn exclusive skins and rewards.

- During the Battle of the Dragons event, Dr. Neo Cortex called a truce and offered Crash and Coco to create a Reverse Ray to turn Dark Spyro into a harmless dragon egg if they brought him enough ingame materials. The plan was successful, with Cortex having Dark Spyro on the run and allowing Spyro and the others to collect more energy and parts to repair the Dragon Portal.
