Activision has announced a new Skylanders Trap Team gameplay mode dedicated to Emperor Kaos. This is known as “Kaos Doom Challenge”.

In Kaos Doom Challenge, players can create defensive towers and take on waves of foes using any of their Skylanders in their collection – not to mention Trapped Villains as well. The mode also includes the “Mystery Box of Doom”, which will bring out even bigger villains.
