The fifth console game's music was composed by Paul Lawler and the DS game's music was composed by Noel Gabriel. Police drummer Stewart Copeland composed all of the music in the first four console games. The console series continued with Spyro: A Hero's Tail (2004), and the original Spyro series cocluded in 2005 with the Nintendo DS game, Spyro: Shadow Legacy, which also received a mobile phone tie-in. There were also two mobile phone games that acted as continuations of the GBA games' plots: Spyro (2003) and Spyro: Ripto Quest (2004). In 2002, Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly was released, which like Season of Ice takes place directly after Year of the Dragon. It was the first in a sub-series of Gameboy Advance games. Spyro: Season of Ice, was released in 2001 for the Gameboy Advance, picking up the storyline where Year of the Dragon left off.

Insomniac Games announced after the release of Year of the Dragon that they would create no more Spyro games. These three games comprise the 'Insomniac Trilogy' and are the only three games released for the PlayStation. Insomniac went on to develop two sequels: Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage! (1999) and Spyro: Year of the Dragon (2000). The Spyro the Dragon series began in 1998 with the PlayStation game Spyro the Dragon, developed by Insomniac Games and published by Universal Interactive. In 2018, a collection of remasters on the original Spyro trilogy was announced called the Spyro Reignited Trilogy. The original Spyro the Dragon series was succeeded by The Legend of Spyro series and the Skylanders franchise, both of which use certain elements from it but are considered non-canon in the franchise. The rights to the franchise are currently held by Activision after Vivendi Universal Games merged with them in 2007. Additionally, several handheld spin-off games were released, developed by Digital Eclipse and Vicarious Visions. The first Spyro game trilogy of the franchise was developed by Insomniac Games and published by Sony Computer Entertainment. The first game in the series was released in 1998 exclusively for the original PlayStation. After the PlayStation 2’s release, Insomniac moved on to the Ratchet & Clank series, leaving Universal Interactive Studios (now Vivendi Universal Games) to publish the series. The Spyro the Dragon series is a series mostly composed of platformer/adventure video games released by Universal Interactive Studios starring the titular Spyro the Dragon, a tiny young purple dragon.
