How to Supercharge in "Spyro Reignited Trilogy"

Supercharge can be very fun but also very frustrating.

The Spyro re-release, Spyro Reignited Trilogy, is finally out (and just in time for Christmas wink). The remaster brings with it a flood of nostalgia as well as all of its original fun moves.

One of our favourite moves? Supercharge.

At certain points and in certain levels, Spyro has the ability to supercharge, leaving the purple dragon invincible (as long as you don't fall off the level) with the added ability to do huge jumps.

But like every fun video game move, the timing can make it a bit tricky.

Don't worry, it's actually pretty simple (once you get the hang of it).

Firstly, supercharges are only available when Spyro encounters slopes or ramps that have green arrows. To use them, just hold down the Charge button (▢ for PS4, X for Xbox One) and go forth.

As you hold down the Charge button, Spyro will gain more and more speed and, eventually, red and purple-ish flames should appear. While in supercharge mode, you can take out strong enemies and do some pretty spectacular jumps.

As soon as you reach to a ledge, press the Jump button (X for PS4, A for Xbox One) and hold it down for a bit. Once you reach the highest point of the jump, press the Jump button again to glide. This will help you reach those tough areas of the maps and help you obtain 100 per cent of the collectables.

That's it! It does sound simple but it will certainly take a few tries on some of the tricky levels (Tree Tops, we're looking at you). Good luck, fellow purple dragons!

Check out this player below if you still need extra help with Tree Tops. Don't be fooled by how easily he supercharge jumps to these areas.
