Activision's Skylanders Battlegrounds Goes Free For First Time On iOS
July 1, 2014
Activision has just reduced the price of Skylanders Battlegrounds on the App Store all the way to the ground. That is to say, the popular iOS game has just been made available to download for free.
Skylanders Battlegrounds normally goes for $6.99. But since a few hours ago, the game has been labeled with a "Free" price tag on the App Store.
Note that this is the first time the game has gone free since its release in November 2012. So, if you haven't downloaded or played the game yet, now is the perfect time to get it, especially considering its otherwise hefty download price and the likelihood that this is a limited-time offer only. Whether it's going to be Apple's next free App of the Week on the App Store remains to be seen.
Skylanders Battlegrounds is an action-adventure game that lets you play with two Skylanders at the same time and engage in battle against Kaos and his warlords.
