Test Chamber – Skylanders: Swap Force
Activision's annualized Skylanders series isn't showing any signs of fatigue. Swap Force is another welcome installment that gives players a greater degree of customization over the characters. If an owl isn't getting the job done, chop off its legs and attach a snake tail to it. Players can construct 256 different variations of Swap Force characters, and can also call upon their favorite characters from past iterations to get the job done.
Jeff Cork joins me for a look at Swap Force's cooperative play. We venture into a chilly tundra overrun with "evilized" dogs and other sinister foes. On our journey, we show off the Swap Force technology, the hub world, and the brutal new difficulty level. If you want to hear more about this game (without our silly jokes), check out my review.
Be sure to visit the Test Chamber hub to watch more episodes.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
