    **Skymiibo

    For the first time ever, skylanders is getting guest stars in the form of [Turbo Charge] Donkey Kong and [Hammer Slam] Bowser. These figures only work on nintendo platforms and will also function as amiibo, thus the fan dubbed 'skymiibo' nickname. With these skylanders, comes special vehicles which are also exclusive to nintendo platforms, these are 'Clown Cruiser' for Bowser and 'Barrel Blaster' for Donkey Kong. Below are the games which the figures are compatible with.

    Online

    For the first time ever, skylanders is going online. There are two different online modes: campaign gameplay where you and another player play together in levels from the story focused campaign mode and racing where you and up to 3 other players compete in races across skylands on various terrain such as land, sea and sky. When playing with friends, you have the option to use voice chat to talk freely with your friends, however when playing with strangers voice chat is disabled. The online mode will make an appearance on Wii U, 3DS, PS4, PS3, Xbox ONE and Xbox 360, it is currently unknown if the tablet version with have the same online interactivity. The Wii version, 'SuperChargers: Racing' is exempt from online interactivity. Please use the official online topic to share online IDs.

    Trailers

    Trailer 1


    Trailer 2

    To view the trailers in other languages, please visit the official skylanders YouTube channel.

    Gameplay

    Offline


    Online

    To view more gameplay, please visit the playlist.


    *Wii and 3DS versions will differ from the regular version of the game, they will instead release in the form of 'Skylanders SuperChargers: Racing' and will focus primarily on the vehicles instead of on-foot gameplay.


    Note: This will be edited by me or one of the other mods when new information surfaces. Off topic comments will be deleted and will result in a warning, repeated offences may result in a suspension.

    Special thanks to Bifrost and Luminous35 for helping with the mod list.

    An overdrive, and some sort of shooting game, can these be associated?

    And before anyone pretends last year didn't exist, let's please not horribly derail the thread every 5 posts. I like a news masterthread just like everyone else, especially one that's tidy.
    Also huh, didn't notice before, is it me or the Battlecast computers are placed on the ground? That must be unconfortable.

    It's better to not mix up fandom with an actual masterthread. 'Sides, with a mod it's easier to edit and organize.

    I think the engine part on the fire charcter can be taken off and switched with another part but each part adds a new attack to the charcter like the engine could give it each Gimmick-lander a new fire type move that only that charcter can use that way they get you to buy all the charcters to get all the moves.

    They might be mixing elements again like they did with Swap Force but using Cores because that looks like a Tech/Fire mixture to me.

    Shouldn't the information regarding the "prototype" be in italics, since he's technically unconfirmed? :D

    I've posted thes theories before, but I think I should post them here too:

    Quote:
    I think that the base might be able to open, and there will be "Overdrive" discs that can be put in the base to give the "Overdrive" Skylander additional abilities.


    Quote:
    There's also another possibility, though: "Overdrive" can also mean "much more powerful than usual", so the "Overdrive" Skylanders might have control over the elements, or maybe even Time and Space itself.
    Examples:

    Control over element: Flyer Kraken can make nearby volcanos erupt, destroying whole islands.

    Contol over time/space: Flyer Kraken can fly at the speed of light, reversing time and travelling to other islands at the same time.


    I think the "Baatlecast" images should be marked as unconfirmed. There should also be a discussion topic too, because the STT news thread went downhill because of the discussions, and the news was getting buried fast.

    Also, "Skylanders Overdrive" makes me think of this:

    The news only got buried when offtopic discussion took over,Qcumber. It was actually working in the beginning because someone could always drop by and ask for the link to join in. After a while however,you were ignored because everyone was too busy arguing about some random dumb thing.

    I meant last year's "Everything we know about Skylanders Trap Team" thread, not the Flyer Kraken thread.

    There will be a strict no off topic discussion policy this year.

    It's now May 16th meaning that Skylanders 5 should be revealed in the next three weeks. Expect the reveal date to be announced in the next two weeks.

    It could be any of those three weeks, SodaPopHD :U We're already over a month after every other announcement in the series, anything could happen.

    I think that Battlecast can stay for now, we still don't know exactly what relation it has to the main game if at all. Even if it's a spinoff, it could still happen at the same timeline, like Lost Islands happening during SSA and then across every other game with the updates.

    It seems they might be completely swapping Elements rather then mixing them. If you think about it, this is hardy a Swap Force clone at all. Although it is similar, the Skylanders are swapping Elements instead of halves in which this case swapping Elements might actually change their appearance in aspects which was hardly the case with Swap Force.

    Plus, if they can swap Elements then this might not even be of the Fire Element.

    They wouldn't stick a different base in a prototype,the Swap Force are shipped with their actual combination,so must be this - unless they'll actually sell the parts separate for maximum greediness.

    They might be mixing elements again like they did with Swap Force but using Cores because that looks like a Tech/Fire mixture to me.

    It seems they might be completely swapping Elements rather then mixing them. If you think about it, this is hardy a Swap Force clone at all. Although it is similar, the Skylanders are swapping Elements instead of halves in which this case swapping Elements might actually change their appearance in aspects which was hardly the case with Swap Force.

    Plus, if they can swap Elements then this might not even be of the Fire Element.


    It could be since he/she definitely doesn't have anything that strictly relates him to Fire.
    Could also be from Tech or Air even if he/she has flaming wings.

    But I'm not that sure about that gimmick.
    Swappers worked paricularly well because their in-game appareances matched a figure change.

    These characters might have translucent bodies with leds that light up accordingly to the Elements but I honestly see it as a quite "restrictive" innovation.
    Don't know.
    I think that we'll have some important questions answered when we'll find another gimmick Skylander.
    That way we would see if he/she has an engine/mechanism of some kind and if the look is similar to the Fire character's.

    Clawbellows doesn't seem to have a plastic transluscent enough to work with any sort of Lightcore technology. Even LC Hex has a slight grayer dress where it changes to red so the light is actually visible, but Clawbellows' just too dark. But being a prototype, who knows how early in development this was made to know if that's anywhere near his final look.

    It was much easier with Knight Light last year. We had a good idea of the toys and everything to figure out something was amiss with that random broken white prototype on a shelf. We don't know if the game's in post-beta, still in beta, or even finished at this point.

    Mixed elements would be too similar to swap force, wouldn't it?
    Maybe the character is named Rift? or Rift Overdrive?

    I seriously have my money on a racing game though. Maybe Baaaattle arena is a spin off?

    Hmm, maybe Kaos came out of the trap, or this is a prequel prior to STT?

    Based on what we know I'd say Kaos' "newfound powers" are a direct effect of both his evolution as a trapped villain and his exposition to Traptanium.

    So I guess this game will happen after the events of Trap Team.
    Don't know how much after, though...

    Great start guys, let's start yelling FIRST! until this gets to page two and get removed by the mods while we're at it.


    Meanwhile,I seriously can't see bat anything on Clawbellows. He's always been lizard-y from the first time I looked at him.

    I wonder if Kaos will be the only big villain in this game or if it'll be like the last 2 games with other evildoers....
    Hopefully the second because the plots are way better with more characters to interact with Kaos!

    Kaos is like a condiment, doesn't work without a meal to spice things up.The first game was alright with no other characters because we didn't know him and Glumshanks, the second had George Takei being George Takei to back him up, Kaos' mom is arguable but it still varied things,and the Golden Queen made for some absolutely hilarious scenes as Kaos is unable to comprehend how someone can be pettier than him, plus his comments as an NPC only worked in the context of the current level. He just doesn't stand his own without a supporting character, villain or not,anymore... Not unlike other hammy villains really; you can't be over the top if you don't have either an audience or a rival.

    I think this time it may be a Kaos from another dimension, as it is RIFT into overdrive, plus it would describe how he's the villain when we've trapped him. And it would explain his newfound powers that are briefly mentioned.

    His head is bat liked. Everything else looks like a salamander. Specifically as said before, a siren.
    But overall, he looks like this, wearing a mask.

    My theory: ince they have wheels, these new gimmick-landers might just be able to transform into tanks or other vehicles of sorts, maybe a new vechicle for each one with new attacks. Then if you put another skylander on the portal, perhaps they can ride it into battle.

    Those are bolts that connect the wings together, they are far too small to be wheels.

    To be honest we shouldn't add battle cast. It could be a spin off and they could have scrapped it.

    Well, at least that confirms that there's a Battlegrounds-like game coming to mobile soon, starter pack and all. As long as it can be played on Android as well later :U

    And the 3DS version getting a reveal along, hopefully? That half of the series needs a bit more love, with all the 3DS' capabilities.

    It seems that the ios game may be the full game as it's grouped with the xbox 360 version on the list. I've taken the xbox 360 version out of italics but not the tablet version as it may be a spin off game.

    SKU is also used as the acronym for the series as whole(Skylanders Universe is used for the books), so probably the 'Dummy' lineup is also for the game.

    Well lets see;
    We know there will be no Wii version for sure now. Could this mean, that some figures will be preorderable? Seems like Gearshift may have been a test run for them in terms of figure preorders.

    However we can't be sure because contrary to Bifrost's belief, SKU is an acronym for Stock Keeping Unit.

    The wierd part is the the placeholder dates vary all of them. May I ask where this was found?

    Furthermore, the 'E3' in front of the product name is interesting - maybe Activision will have a section in Sony/ Microsoft/ Nintendo's presentation where they show off a bit of the game and they just come out and say "Pre-orders are now available!".

    Why would they do it during a presentation of another company. Activision could just do their own thing right? Or is it confirmed they won't be at E3?
