Knowing full well that kids love catching them all when there are even more to catch, Activision announced Skylanders Trap Team for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Wii U, Nintendo 3DS, PS3, and Xbox 360. The latest entry in the franchise follows up last year’s Skylanders: Swap Force and introduces the ability to not only buy many, many heroic action figures but also the ability to trap the game’s enemies and turn them to the light.
Developed by Toys For Bob, which hasn’t led development since 2012′s Skylanders: Giants, Trap Team expands the compulsive collectable nature of the game. The game comes with a brand new NFC portal that reads not just the usual Skylanders toys, but new crystal toys. When fighting specific villains in the game like goofy old man Chompy Mage, plugging a trap crystal into the base actually sucks up the villain making them a usable character. There are 40 trappable villains in the game, and you can switch between one trapped villain and one regular Skylander figure on the fly, adding a tag team element to the Zelda style brawling that’s the series’ signature.
Toys For Bob is adding 60 new Skylanders as well, including the Trapmasters, a new class equipped with giant weapons made of “Traptanium,” the same fictional substance the toys for trapping villains are made of.
Come on feel the toys: What’s new in Skylanders Trap Team originally appeared on Joystiq on Wed, 23 Apr 2014 19:00:00 EST. Please see our terms for use of feeds.
