Starlink: Battle for Atlas
Wing Commander: Skylanders Edition
To be fair to Ubisoft, Starlink is genius:
space combat and exploration crossed
with collectable models. (Who said
toys-to-life was dead, eh?) Playing as a
troop of fighter pilots, you battle to protect the
star-system Atlas from attack by the evil Forgotten
Legion. While the action that’s been shown so far
looks solid, the real-time interplay between the
models and the gameplay is what’s most
intriguing. Editing your customisable starships in
real-life alters them in-game, meaning you can
change guns or switch pilots mid-battle if you
need to change your approach quickly. It may be
a ploy to sell toys, but it’s a compelling one.
