Activision officially announces Skylanders SuperChargers; Info and videos

It was in the air an announcement imminent and indeed Activision today officially revealed the development of Skylanders SuperChargers , the new chapter of the franchise that will be available in Europe starting September 25. According to developers, the title in question will make big news to the series, above all the introduction of vehicles-cars, submarines, airplanes, boats and helicopters-vociferati several times in previous rumor. The development team announced, however, that for the first time in the series, the portal will not be required to play for the title.

Players will be able to buy the game from the online Store, but of course this will not delve into the game or discover all the secrets.

In practice, the game will give us the opportunity to move forward in completing adventure is simply with the starter pack that will be placed on the market together with the game containing the units (Spitfire and Super Stealth Elf Shot and a toy car Hot Streak), and with many characters/Vehicles that will be in stores in the future.

The characters will have new powers thanks to vehicles that will be made available that should be treated well in appearance. In fact, it was announced that portions of "small toys" can be moved, such as cogwheels and helicopter propellers rotate.

Turning to design scenarios, developers have claimed that the game world is much broader than previously, with optional areas full of secrets to discover. Each level will be different from each other, you will find sections where we fly, and then we will need a aircraft, or water-filled areas that we explore aboard a submarine. Of course there are also optional bosses to defeat. It is clear, therefore, that in order to see everything the game has to offer we will necessarily put hands to the wallet to purchase new toys; When we speak of about twenty vehicles and characters that will help us fight the usual notorious evil Kaos.

Kaos returns more fierce than ever in an attempt to conquer for the umpteenth time the serene world of Skylanders. This time he has seen fit to entrust to her the most terrible weapon, the Doomstation Ultimate Doomstruction able to, literally, devouring the sky. Fortunately the master Eon sensed Kaos plans by assembling a team of Skylanders that with their super-powered vehicles will travel by land, by sea and to the skies in an attempt to defeat Kaos.

Another novelty is to modify the vehicles through the upgrade; Once modified, the vehicles will change not only in appearance (something obviously visible changes in the game) but also with regard to the performance. Specifically during the adventure we find scattered throughout the scenery of the projects and of the gears that will allow us to change the medium of the moment.

But the gameplay is not only convey: Skylanders SuperChargers will also offer the usual platform sections with puzzles to solve in order to move forward in history.

Developers are working hard to make the game appealing in all respects; for example the graphics you should submit in step with the times with well-defined scenarios and calculated illumination in real time.

For example, when you will sail the seas, waves arise very realistic. The graphics engine is an evolution of the Force which should Swarp optimum design for the current console and would instead squeeze to limit Xbox 360 . The cut scenes are developed using the same game engine.

But what do we make of the large collection of Skylanders which we procured with the previous games in the series? No fear, all our "gremlins" collected with so much effort will be playable within Skylanders SuperChargers . We leave you the presentation trailer and some pictures depicting some of the characters and vehicles in the game.
