“This season you’ll see Spyro showing up all over the place in CTR – – in the opening menu screen, in the Grand Prix cinematic, and of course, in the game itself. Spyro, Hunter, and Gnasty Gnorc will be added as unlockable playable characters with all of the personality that you come to expect from them. You’ll also see some amazing new karts such as the Spyromobile and Gnasty Ride which give their namesakes some blistering rides to boast about,” reads the developer update.

The update lands on PS4, Xbox One, and Switch this Friday. As long as you have a copy of the game and an online subscription to whichever console you’re playing on, the Spyro & Friends Grand Prix update is completely free. In addition to Spyro, the update adds Hunter the Cheetah and Gnasty Gnorc (the…. Gnorc?) from the Spyro franchise. It hasn’t been confirmed how long the Spyro-themed Grand Prix event will last, but judging from history it’s safe to assume it’ll be around for four weeks.

No, that’s not quite right… We’ve got all the cheat codes in the game, but unfortunately the demo for Spyro 2: Ripto’s Revenge is missing this time around!

Crash Team Racing shortcuts

Struggling to win races online? It might be because you’re not using all of the Crash Team Racing shortcuts available in the game because trust us, there’s a lot. From simple ones like the alternate paths in Hot Air Skyway and Hyper Spaceway to the difficult jumps in Blizzard Bluff and Assembly Lanes, if you can master every single one of these shortcuts, you’re a Crash Team Racing genius.

Crash Team Racing N. Tropy

Crash Team Racing N. Tropy is one of the most infamous characters of all time, because to unlock him, you need to beat every single one of his time trials.
