Activision Knows Collectible Card Games - 'Skylanders Battlecast' Brings Cards to Life Today

iOS, Android, and Kindle.

With 'Skylanders Battlecast,' Activision is attempting to combine some very winning ingredients into a new product. There are the colorful characters of 'Skylanders,' there are real collectible cards, a digital card combat platform, and mix of single player and multiplayer.

With the today's full launch, 'Skylanders Battlecast' is ready to be downloaded on iOS, Android, and on Kindle. The real cards are bought in packs, and then scanned in via the mobile device's camera, from there it's digital card-based combat.

Of course, Activision is pretty shrewd here as the cards can also be bought and managed in an all-digital manner. 

There are character cards, spell cards, gear cards, and relic cards.

Players will need a starter pack, and from there, it'll be worth considering booster packs.

The 'Skylanders Battlecast' is free to download on Google Play, iTunes, and Amazon.
