I have followed Skylanders ever since Spyro’s Adventure. Now, with the sixth iteration of the game in six years I can say that I’m still as excited to play as I was on day one. Skylanders Imaginators is headed to consoles everywhere on October 16 in North America. I will certainly be all over that game when it arrives. I just got confirmation of my upcoming review copy of the game and can’t wait to play it. Actually I did get to play a little at Sweet Suite last month. It was awesome! I was able to build a new character and play it. I was also able to play with and hold a bunch of the Sensei characters including Crash Bandicoot.

What I didn’t know then was that Kaos was going to be made into a Sensei and he would become a playable character! That is something that portal masters have been wanting for a while. We kind had that with Trap Team but it was limited. Now with Skylanders Imaginators Kaos is free to roam wherever and he’s is super powerful. If you pre-order and purchase the Skylanders Imaginators starter pack you can get a FREE Kaos figure (while supplies last). That is great news.

However, Kaos is not the only Super Villain who is becoming a Sensei for Skylanders Imaginators. Crash Bandicoot’s arch-nemesis, Dr. Neo Cortex is also coming to the game. Additionally, Skylanders Imaginators will feature an all-new dedicated Crash Bandicoot level called Thumpin’ Wumpa Islands! This level is steeped in nostalgic Crash Bandicoot gameplay, including the classic TNT boxes, crabs, hazards, temple ruins, Wumpa Fruit, exploding fruit and more. This level will be available on the PS3 and PS4 starter packs at launch and will be released in a special Adventure Pack for all platforms later this year.

this is very exciting news. A Lot of great stuff came out of GAMESCOM 2016. Check out the full press release below.
