Legends Unite is a single-screen co-op game that combines elements of roguelike games with deck building and arcade mini-games. Single player play is also provided.

Players will battle enemies, including Hordak — Skeletor's former mentor — in a variety of locations, using unique character abilities and collectible cards to overcome increasingly difficult challenges. Each playthrough of the game will be different, and competitive and cooperative elements will influence the gameplay.

This game is part of Amazon Luna's GameNight line, which focuses on accessible and social gaming experiences. Players can use smartphones as controllers, allowing them to form groups without the need for specialized gaming equipment.

The Masters of the Universe franchise, spanning more than four decades and spanning toys, television series and films, remains a key focus of Mattel's digital expansion strategy as the company seeks to expand its intellectual property into interactive formats.
