Activision has revealed another of the new giant-sized characters for Skylanders Giants, in the shape of the huge air elemental bee, Swarm. He's the third giant character type to be revealed and is one of the eight new giants alongside tech giant Bouncer and life giant, Tree Rex.

Swarm is a former prince from a proud race of insect warriors that once resided within a giant honeycomb pyramid. Discovering his magical powers and growing to an abnormally huge size, Swarm left the other 9000 members of the royal family to step out into the big wide world, where his strength is put to good use in the battle between the Giants and Arkeysans.

That's the backstory out of the way... Check out Swarm in the trailer, artwork and screenshots below. Skylanders Giants is out in October 2012.
