Activision Blizzard today announced that Skylanders: SuperChargers will feature Dark variants of its Donkey Kong and Bowser amiibo-slash-Skylanders figurines.

The Dark Edition of Skylanders: SuperChargers will come with the Dark versions of DK and Bowser, alongside the Clown Cruiser, Barrel Blaster, Spitfire and Hot Streak.

Non-Nintendo versions of the game come with Dark Super Shot Stealth Elf and Dark Sea Shadow rather than the amiibo crosses.

Skylanders: SuperChargers‘ Dark Edition will be shown for the first time at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con. We checked the normal version of the game out at this year’s E3.
