Activision has made its E3 2016 lineup known ahead of the expo next week. Aside from the non-Nintendo titles Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare and Destiny, the company will also be highlighting Skylanders Imaginators.

For those who need a reminder, here’s what you can expect from Skylanders Imaginators:

This fall, Activision and Toys For Bob are giving kids the power to create their own Skylanders! With the launch of Skylanders Imaginators, players will be able to create the wildest Skylanders imaginable — including their appearance, powers, abilities, names, catchphrases, musical themes and much more. Now it’s up to Portal Masters everywhere to use their own Skylanders — known as Imaginators — with the new Creation Crystals to defeat Kaos.

Skylanders Imaginators also introduces Skylanders Senseis, all-new heroes who represent 10 powerful Battle Classes such as Knight, Sorcerer, Bowslinger and Brawler to help kids save Skylands. The newest game in the award-wining franchise is available now for pre-order and supports all 300+ Skylanders from previous games. Skylanders Imaginators will be available on October 16 in North America; October 14 in Europe; and October 13 in Australia/New Zealand.

E3 2016 will take place between June 14 and June 16.

Nintendo has already shared plenty of information about what it’s plans are for E3 2016 next week. But today, the company provided information about how fans can stay engaged.

First, an eShop sale will be hosted between June 14 at 11 AM PT / 2 PM ET until 8:59 AM PT / 11:59 AM ET on June 21. Discounts will be available on some of Nintendo’s “most popular games as a special treat for fans.” My Nintendo members will receive “a special bonus if they buy select games included in the sale.”

Nintendo also has plans to tie-in Zelda with Miitomo. If this tweet receives a combined 10,000 retweets worldwide, a “Link’s new hair wig” will be provided to users as a gift. 20,000 re-tweets will net players a “Link wig”. This must be accomplished by June 13 at 7:59 AM PT / 10:59 AM ET. Miitomo will also be getting a Zelda-themed Miitomo Drop stages as well as collaboration items and a My Nintendo reward that can be exchanged for Platinum Points.
