Skylanders Giants

Skylanders Giants

Skylanders: Giants is an upcoming 2012 video game in the Skylanders series, and it is going to be the direct sequel to the 2011 game Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure. This game will be availabel for Xbox 360, PC, Playstation 3, Wii and Wii U. It will be one of the first games out on the Wii U. 

Skylanders: Giants utilizes the first game's engine by building upon the fundamentals of the first game: merging a line of cross-platform toy figures with the video game world itself. The game will introduce over 40 new collectible figures, some of which are more than twice the size of the original Skylanders cast in both physical and virtual form. Their in-game powers and abilities reflect their colossal scale. It will also include a set of interactive characters that feature new light technology integrated into the toys. This allows the interactive figures' base to light up on contact with the "Portal of Power". Players will also be able to import characters and their progress from the first game, since they are backwards compatible with this title.

The game will feature new arenas and more gameplay options in Battle Mode for head-to-head play, as well as enhanced Elemental Zones, new Hero Challenges, and other features that encourage players to collect and level up every character.
