This game introduces the ability to exchange the tops and bottoms of special swappable figures for an exciting gameplay experience, and is the third installment in the Skylanders franchise.
Known Issues
NOTE: While listed as "playable," the following issues make the game virtually unplayable:
- Portal disconnects causing Skylanders to become stuck in the game
- Fixable by enabling the "Portal Stability Fix" graphics pack (doesn't always work.
going back to older versions of cemu + fix helps)
- Title screen and save game images do not appear
- Fixable by disabling all graphics packs (doesn't always work)
Configuration
- Portal Configuration: All Skylanders games in Cemu require the Skylanders portal to be set as a USB Input Device. Locate your portal and update the driver using device manager.
- Drivers: Cemu is not compatible with the Zadig USB driver, if you have it installed it needs to be uninstalled before the Portal will work.
- Note: Cemu IS NOT compatible with Xbox Portals.

Very consistent frame rate and gameplay, however switching your character becomes impossible after a few minutes because the portal stops responding to input.

The official changelog notes for version 1.25.2 on the Cemu site are incorrect, this game is still very much broken. Portal communication is still very spotty, but performance is excellent.

Switching your character becomes impossible after roughly 25-30 minutes of gameplay as the portal stops responding to input (usually caused by a task like a scene change or leaving an elemental gate). Graphics may tear occasionally (minor). Performance is still excellent.
