Home Worlds[1][2][3][4] are a recurring type of location in the Spyro franchise. They serve as hub levels that allow Spyro and other characters to access the different realms through the use of portals. Besides serving as a hub, home worlds are otherwise identical to realms in that Spyro can freely explore them to search for collectibles that add to the game's completion total. In most games, home worlds also have a portal that leads to a speedway level.
Progression
The method of progression to new Home Worlds is different in each game. In Spyro the Dragon, progression to the next Home World is achieved by rescuing or finding a certain number of dragons, eggs, or gems per the balloonist—defeating the boss associated with each Home World is not mandatory. In Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage! and Spyro: Year of the Dragon, Spyro must defeat the boss at the end of each Home World to move on to the next.
Nomenclature
In Spyro the Dragon, each Home World is named according to the predominant Dragon clan inhabiting the area. In the sequels, Home Worlds are not inhabited by any major species, but are named according to their distinctive qualities. In Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage!, they are named after three of the four seasons of the year (excluding spring). In Spyro: Year of the Dragon, they are named after four different times of the day. Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly contains only one Homeworld. There are four Home Worlds in Spyro: A Hero's Tail and they are much bigger.
