The Spyro's Adventure/Giants portal has a limit of up to 4 pieces that can be read simultaneously. For example; two players can each play a Swap Force figure in Superchargers when using the older portals, but because a Swap Force Skylander count as two pieces, that means the players won't be able to use a physical vehicle as a result. Instead they'll have to summon a digital vehicle. This is the first Skylanders game not to introduce a new Skylander with a hammer for a weapon (although there are several hammer options for the Imaginators).

As the Skylanders franchise has been released on numerous platforms, with various versions developed by different developers, there are significant differences between them. Skylanders SWAP Force characters feature traversal abilities – such as flying, climbing, racing, digging, bouncing, or teleporting – each of which can be explored in new areas of Skylands that are centered on these new play mechanics. In Skylanders: Swap Force and onward, Toys for Bob and Vicarious Visions used generic names for all the new Skylanders before the final names were decided upon. [3] In newer games, some Skylanders keep these placeholder names in the in-game files even after their debut, though most are eventually updated.

Skylanders: Swap Force started out as an original Vicarious Visions concept about how the developers could build on the greatness of Skylanders - playing together, building your collection, and the value of the collection itself. Also, what's fun from a toy standpoint: not just what's better on the video game side, but what makes for an interesting play pattern on the toy side? The toy design is actually led by Vicarious but I-Wei Huang, Character Director, and Paul Reiche III, Founder have a close interaction on iterating with the designs and making them home in the Skylands. [4] During development, the names "Super Nova" and "Nova" was used as a fun name for the project before a main title was chosen. [5] These names can be found on early concept art by lead concept artist Jeff Bellio. [6] With the Introduction of the SWAP Force Skylanders, which are considered as two individual pieces, a new and updated Portal of Power was introduced, which allows for more room for the toys as well as being able to read more pieces than previously, such as when using two SWAP Force figures and a Magic Item all at the same time. This Portal of Power is flatter and not as tall as the original portal design, with the lip replaced with a thin wall.
