[quote by=”Eric Hirshberg, CEO, Activision Publishing, Inc.”]Built from the ground up to bring Skylanders to life on mobile devices, Skylanders Battlecast combines physical card play with mobile gaming in an all-new way. This is our biggest investment, and one of our most magical ideas yet, for the Skylanders franchise on mobile.[/quote]

For Skylanders Battlecast, players can purchase physical card packs at retail, as well as digital card packs in-game. Players will experience a magic moment by scanning cards with their mobile devices and watching them come to life. Additionally, fans can scan two character cards to create animated duels in which players can physically interact with the characters.
