Story

The story of Skylanders Imaginators takes place long ago when the Ancients used a mysterious power known as "Mind Magic" to create everything in Skylands. With it, they conjured into existence anything that they could imagine! However, they soon learned that in the wrong hands, it could be very dangerous, and so they sealed it away so that it could never be misused. After discovering this ancient secret, Kaos has unleashed the power of "Mind Magic" into Skylands once again - and he is using it to create an unstoppable army of Doomlanders, the likes of which have never been seen! Now it's up to Portal Masters to create Skylanders Imaginators from their own imagination and stop Kaos and his evil Doomlanders before it is too late. And to help train them, Eon is sending the greatest mystic warriors of all time - the Senseis!

Characters

For new playable characters there are 20 brand new Skylander Senseis as well as 11 former villains. Along with their element each Sensei will also have a Battle Class from a list of ten: Smasher, Knight, Ninja, Bazooker, Quickshot, Sorcerer, Brawler, Sentinel, Swashbuckler, and Bowslinger.

The first set of characters to be revealed included King Pen, Golden Queen, and Tri-Tip. Here is a table containing all of the new Skylanders, click the + to see all the known variants:

Senseis

"Sensei" is the collective name for the new set of Skylanders (the villains also function as Senseis), their Battle Class determines the types of attacks and weapons they use as well as which abilities they unlock for your Imaginators. They all have a new type of super attack called Sky-Chi that slowly fills up as you defeat enemies until it reaches a point where you can unleash it on your unsuspecting foes (quite similar to the ability Trap Masters had in the 3DS version of Trap Team).

Owning a Sensei of a particular battle class will unlock a Secret Technique for your Imaginators of the same class. As well as that they will each unlock an item and a weapon for use in customisation. Senseis will also be able to access areas known as "Sensei Elemental Realms".

Creation Crystal

Included in the Starter Pack is a Fire Creation Crystal, this allows you to create and store your very own custom Fire element Skylander. To create a Skylander of a different element you'll need to purchase a Creation Crystal of that element.

Be aware that once you select a Battle Class you can not change it on that Creation Crystal ever again. So choose carefully!

Starter Pack

In the Starter Pack you get the Water Sensei Master King Pen, the Earth Villain Golden Queen, and a Fire Creation Crystal. The portal included is identical to that of the Swap Force portal (some regions instead have a modified SuperChargers Portal without a trap slot).

There is also once again a Dark Edition of the Starter Pack, it contains three Dark variant Skylanders (King Pen, Golden Queen, and Wolfgang) and three standard Creation Crystals (Fire, Life, and Dark). The pack also comes with a Gold Imaginite Mystery Chest that unlocks some gear for your Imaginators.

And there is a "Crash Edition" that is only available on PlayStation 3 and 4, it has the same contents as the regular Starter Pack plus the Crash Bandicoot and Dr. Neo Cortex toys. The characters will be available in a separately sold Adventure Pack at a later date.

Platforms

The game is only appearing on PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, and the Wii U. That means no Wii, 3DS, or Tablet versions this year.

Oh, sorry about that truegamer64, I didn't really know about what "ops" meant, I'm not really fluent in Internet speak.

Also, I don't really come here for attention, I just want to share my opinions on my second favorite video game series (after Pokémon)

So yea

@Truegamer64: I can understand what you've done but the execution was poorly done.

As with regards to insulting people (Sorry guys if this message seems offensive) yes this is the internet but this is a site dedicated to a single game that has made more money than you ever will, we come here with the soul intention of discussing this game so a lot of people use names such as Chompy-king 257 and Skylandrpurists. with regards to their punctuation and gammar they wen't/are at school and they can clearly spell as well as have an adult convosation without insulting and abbreviating swear words.

With regards to your name: TrueGammer64? I assume the 64 is in regards to the N64 which in all fairness was a subpar console compared to it predecessor or to the later WII console which any novice knows, and as for truegamer HA! don't make me laugh I no doubt my unborn offspring knows more about gaming than you clearly do. so do us a favour and back OFF cause none of us are interested in the rantings of a pre pubescent child.

Ps. I wish activision would hurry up with some new info

wanted to see what people thought, if you could tell its fake from the start, or if people just glanced at it and believed it

no one cares about attention on a site where people with names like Chompy-King256 and SkylandrPurists are on, i couldnt care less about attention, just wanted opinions
literally everyone here tries to act professional spelling everything properly, making ocd lists, and putting periods at the end of sentences
of course its correct grammar, but this is the internet ffs

K so while we're naming villains we'd like to see return. I'd
love to see blaster-tron return as maybe the bazooker class and tae kon krow (horridly misspelled) return as either the ninja or knight class

V Not everyone knows that OPs means opinions. Even if we did, it could've meant opinions on the possible variant coming out, not on your work.
