Since the launch of the first Skylanders, the game’s developers have received countless pieces of art from fans with ideas for new characters. Over time it became clear that this was a sign of where the franchise should go next – and Skylanders Imaginators was born.
As its name alludes to, Imaginators, which launches later this year, is about drawing of the power of ideas; its hook is customisation.
You can now create your own Skylanders, from the way they look, to the weapons they wield, to the way they sound and even the catch phrases they use.
The team wanted this customization system to be both robust and accessible; there’s a wide array of parts to create your Skylander from, and a randomize feature that will conjure an automatic character if you prefer.
Some of the parts are fun, some are serious, some are just plain silly; and you’ll collect more as you progress through the game.
Sensei it ain’t so
The game also introduces a new character type to the series: Senseis. There are 20 of these new Sensei Skylanders which unlock special areas and weapons, increase Imaginator level caps, and teach special skills to the new Skylanders.
