: The maximum level for Skylanders was increased to 20 in this installment, up from level 15 in Skylanders: Giants .

: While the game can be launched from third-party dashboards like Aurora or Freestyle Dash, it does not bypass the need for physical NFC figures unless specific, separate NFC-emulation hardware is used. Game Performance

: Achieving 100% completion typically takes approximately 36 hours of gameplay. JTAG/RGH Specific Considerations

: One achievement, "Newsworthy," is currently unobtainable on all platforms, including modded consoles, because the "Message of the Day" servers have been abandoned.

: Despite running a digital backup on a JTAG/RGH console, you must have a physical Portal of Power connected via USB to play. The SWAP Force portal is specifically designed with a stone/metal paint effect and glowing arches to accommodate the new figures.

: The game features 16 new "Swap Force" Skylanders that can be separated into top and bottom halves, allowing for over 250 unique character combinations .
