Bring toys to life and use bad guys for good in Skylanders Trap Team on Wii U! Capture certain enemies by sealing them inside special Traptanium Trap toys, which can be placed directly into the all-new Traptanium Portal, then return them to Skylands as playable characters to fight on your side!

Still desperate for power, that diabolical baddie Kaos has cooked up yet another plan to take control of Skylands. By blowing up the legendary Cloudcracker Prison, a fortress made of the magical material Traptanium, Kaos frees all of Skylands' biggest bad guys to build an unstoppable army of evil. Using Traps formed from shards of Traptanium, it’s up to Portal Masters (like you!) to recapture the runaway rogues and put an end to another of Kaos’ wicked plots!

Jump into an action-packed story filled with combat, puzzles, minigames and platforming, whether you play solo or team up with a friend in local multiplayer. You can easily drop-in and drop-out of co-operative play at any time, so a friend can join in the fun whenever they like!

There are two ways to play Skylanders Trap Team: use a Skylander hero, or trap one of Skylands’ most wanted and bring them over to your cause. When you ensnare an enemy in a Trap, they’re transported into the real world via the Traptanium Portal. A built-in speaker in the Traptanium Portal allows you to hear the voices of captured villains, bringing the adventure right into the room – or you can return them to Skylands and play as them! Switch between playing as a hero or a villain at any time and put together your ultimate Trap Team to defeat Kaos!

More than 50 new playable characters are available, including Trap Master Skylanders, who charge into battle with gigantic crystal weapons, core Skylanders, new versions of fan favourite Skylanders, pint-sized but powerful Skylanders Minis and, of course, a range of in-game villains! If you’ve already built up a collection of Skylanders figures, Skylanders Trap Team is also compatible with 175 characters from Skylanders SWAP Force, Skylanders Giants and Skylanders Spyro’s Adventure!

  • Bring digital characters to life with the new Traptanium Portal – captured characters can speak through its built-in speaker!
  • Play as heroes and villains, and switch between them at any time to form a powerful Trap Team!
  • More than 50 new playable characters, including Trap Master Skylanders and Skylanders Minis
