The Skylanders franchise breathed new life into the toys-to-life genre when it first arrived in 2011, and Skylanders Trap Team, released in 2014, was no exception. This fourth installment in the series introduced a fresh mechanic that allowed players to trap and play as series villains, offering a unique twist on the formula. If you're wondering how to get Skylanders Trap Team on Steam, you've come to the right place.

Developed by Toys For Bob and published by Activision, Skylanders Trap Team was initially released for the Wii U, Nintendo 3DS, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, and Xbox One. Fortunately, the PC gaming community didn't miss out on the action, as Skylanders Trap Team is also available on Steam.

Gameplay and Unique Features

Skylanders Trap Team maintains the core gameplay mechanics of its predecessors – collectible toys, portal-based play, and a varied array of platforms and puzzles. However, the game introduces the Traptanium portal, which allows players to trap and collect villains, adding a fresh perspective to the gameplay.

The Trap Master toys, which can be used to unlock special areas and abilities, are another standout feature. These figures, along with the new villain traps, offer expanded gameplay possibilities and enhance the overall Skylanders experience.

Trapping Villains: A New Twist

One of the most groundbreaking features in Skylanders Trap Team is the ability to trap and play as villains. By using the Traptanium portal and traps, players can capture series villains like Kaos and Broccoli Man. Trapped villains can then be used in place of Skylanders, offering unique abilities and sequences.
