Skylanders SuperChargers introduces Fiesta
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii, Wii U | 1 Comment
Fiesta has been revealed as one of the new characters in Skylanders SuperChargers.
Activision shares the following description:
Despite being undead, Fiesta had always been the life of the party. He was once the head member of a popular mariachi band in the personal court of Count Moneybone, who all undead citizens respected immensely. In his spare time, Fiesta and his bandmates played music for all of the new arrivals that entered the Underworld. However, a day came when the new arrivals were actually several Skylanders, who had come on a mission to stop Count Moneybone from unleashing a robot army on all of Skylands. Fiesta then realized that he, like so many others, had been fooled by the evil Count into thinking he was kind and generous – not the vengeful monster he truly was. Unbeknownst to the Skylanders, Fiesta and his bandmates helped to distract the robot army so they could infiltrate Moneybone’s mansion and put a stop to him. Even though the Skylanders were unaware, this act of bravery and defiance did catch the attention of Master Eon, who recruited him at once.
Like other characters in the game, Fiesta will have his own unique vehicle known as the “Crypt Crusher”.
Check out a couple of videos for Fiesta below.
Rumor: Skylanders SuperChargers dev hints at amiibo support
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Rumors, Wii U | 9 Comments
During the latest episode of The Giant Beastcast, Giant Bomb co-founder Jeff Gerstman spoke about a conversation he had with the Skylanders SuperChargers development team. Gerstman asked one of the game’s staffers about the possibility of amiibo support. While this person said that Activision and Vicarious Visions are focusing on what they’re showing at the event, he also said: “We’ll have a big surprise at E3.”
That’s an interesting response for sure. Does it mean that Skylanders SuperChargers will make use of amiibo? Only time will tell! Fortunately E3 is just on the horizon.
