Skylanders: Giants builds upon the breakthrough fundamentals of the first game-merging the physical and virtual realms with a line of cross-platform toy figures that have 'brains,' which players everywhere can play as in the game. Ģ4 of the Skylanders from Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure have returned with a remodel called Series 2, and have an orange base instead of a green base. In the 3DS Starter Pack, the player gets Punch Pop Fizz, Tree Rex, and a Series 2 Cynder. This pack does not include Cynder or Jet-Vac.

A 'Portal Owner's Pack' is also available, which does not contain the Portal of Power and is meant for those who already have one from Spyro's Adventure. In the brand new console Starter Pack, the player gets three Skylanders ( Tree Rex, Jet-Vac, and a Series 2 Cynder), a Portal of Power, Trading Cards, a Poster, and the game itself. The theme music from the previous game was again provided by Academy Award Winning film composer Hans Zimmer, whilst a new orchestral score was produced by the returning composer, Lorne Balfe. Joel Cohen and Alec Sokolow returned to help write the story. However, Frightbeard found a way out and is on his way back to free his crew and wreck havoc on all of Skylands. 10,000 years ago, the Arkeyans locked away Captain Frightbeard and his crew in the chest, with his sword acting as a lock.

The Portal Master, along with Flynn, Hugo, and others along the way, race Captain Frightbeard, the villain of the 3DS version, to the Chest of Exile. With a new threat looming, they are summoned back to join forces with the Skylanders.

Thousands of years ago, the Giants fought battles in Skylands but were banished to Earth.
