Skylanders SuperChargers to include Nintendo characters
Donkey Kong and Bowser to guest star, can also work as amiibo
Activision and Nintendo have announced a collaboration with the introduction of two of Nintendo's iconic characters - Donkey Kong and Bowser - as guest stars in Skylanders SuperChargers.
The characters will be available exclusively in Skylanders SuperChargers Starter Packs for the Wii U, Wii and Nintendo 3DS family of systems, available now for pre-order.
Skylanders Superchargers introduces Turbo Charge Donkey Kong and Hammer Slam Bowser, which usher in a first-of-its-kind collaboration for the Skylanders franchise. Further, the two figures are playable in both Skylanders SuperChargers and select amiibo compatible games with a simple twist of the characters' bases.
The goal with this collaboration is to honor the personalities and heritage of Donkey Kong and Bowser that fans have come to love from previous games, while creating a fresh look and feel for the guest stars in Skylands. For example, Turbo Charge Donkey Kong's powers and attacks include barrel throws and exploding bongos and other classic Donkey Kong powers that pay homage to the lore of the character, as well as exciting new moves for the iconic character. Hammer Slam Bowser's powers range from commanding Koopas, summoning Warp Pipes as well as fierce fire-breathing attacks.
Skylanders SuperChargers will be available on September 20, 2015 in North America for Wii, Wii U, as well as Xbox 360, Xbox One, PS3 and PS4.
