Don't worry if you have a horde of screaming kids this summer time as Skylanders SWAP Force has arrived on next-gen consoles to placate the kids.

It is now available for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One and is the third installment of the top selling kids’ video game franchise.

“Highly Recommended” by NZ Gamer who say “SWAP Force marks the point at which Skylanders really finds its groove”.

Skylanders SWAP Force is one of the highest rated kids’ games of the year and one of the few kids’ titles available on the next-generation of video game consoles this holiday.

The game, which “sings on next-gen” according to online gaming site Kotaku.com,  is already positioned to be a must-have game this holiday.

Skylanders SWAP Force pushes the boundaries of innovation and imagination with an all new play pattern – swapability – that allows gamers to transform 16 SWAP Force characters into more than 250 unique characters by swapping the top and bottom halves of the toys.

Building on the franchise’s signature gameplay and collectible toy experience, the game takes kids on an all-new adventure with more than 30 new characters each with unique powers and personalities.

Additionally, fans can play Skylanders SWAP Force on next-generation consoles with their entire collection of 100+ characters from Skylanders Spyro’s Adventure and Skylanders Giants.

Optimized for next-generation game systems, Skylanders SWAP Force features an all new graphics engine that delivers high-resolution visuals that bring to life amazingly detailed characters and richer environments to deliver a high level of visual fidelity that immerse players in the game like never before.

The game runs in native 1080p on both next-generation consoles, further bridging the gap between a video game and feature film experience.
