I wonder how Spyro's and Cynder's powers will work and how they get them in this game. I also wonder how many bosses there will be in this game.

Cynder Rocks I do know that Ignitus will be in Dawn of the Dragon, so the other guardians will most likely be in there too, but Hunter I don't know.

hey, does anyone know whether Ignitus and the other guardians are in dawn of the dragon ? and is Hunter going to be a main character or is he just there to free them at the beginning ?
