Skylanders: Spyro&amp;#039;s Universe also features a collection of mini-games, triggered when evil forces invade the Skylands. Currently in beta form, players can sign up for a Skylanders: Spyro&amp;#039;s Universe account by visiting the game&amp;#039;s official website, regardless of whether they own any of the toys necessary to play the console version. Skylanders: Spyro&amp;#039;s Universe continues the adventure of console predecessor Skylanders: Spyro&amp;#039;s Adventure. Launching in October, Skylanders: Spyro&amp;#039;s Adventure makes use of a portal peripheral, which recreates a toy in-game when it is placed on top of the device.
