The trailer should be up really soon because of the patterns of the releases of it's hints of what's in it. There was a glitch on the main site, some people have thought it was the trailer. but who knows, it was only there for five seconds :S

To Convexity:
Chris Wilson (Senior Producer of the game) says that there will be more after DotD, but that may continue as a different trillogy.

To Phantom 69:

This is not the last spyro that part is true, but this is the last game OF the LoS trilogy. They said on their interview that they will make more spyro games. I'm not sure of which trilogy the original maybe or maybe a different one. Hope that helps- Convexity

THIS IS NOT THE LAST SPYRO GAME! Sierra rumor has it that there will be more after Dawn of the Dragon. I've said that plenty of times.

The sad thing is that this might be THE last game to be made of Spyro.
