Disney Infinity is an action-adventure sandbox game for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii, Wii U, Nintendo 3DS, PC, and iPad. It is the first game in the Disney Infinity series, and the predecessor to Disney Infinity: 2.0 Edition. The game brings several different Disney series together, such as Pirates of the Caribbean, Cars and Monsters University. The main gimmick of the game is that it uses figurines that store character data, similarly to Activision's Skylanders and Nintendo's amiibo.

Gameplay[]

The game has the player place their Disney Infinity figures onto the circular spots of the Disney Infinity base to jump into the game and come alive in a fully animated interactive world. With the exception of non-humanoid characters such as those from the Cars series, each character has a double jump and a default set of attacks, as well as an ability unique to each figure.

Play Sets[]

Play Set mode has Disney Infinity play sets of films which are accessed via placing the relevant play set piece onto the hexagonal spot of the Infinity Base. Some examples include Pirates of the Caribbean, Monsters University, The Incredibles, Cars, The Lone Ranger and Toy Story in Space. These play sets have their own unique campaign, which can be played with up to two players. The player takes control of characters, and plays as them in original adventures in different worlds. In these worlds, the player battles enemies, solves puzzles, overcomes obstacles and completes a variety of other unique quests. Each play set is essentially a self-contained world, based on a specific movie or series with recognizable characters, gameplays and storylines. Characters from one world cannot enter into another world, meaning two figures from the same series are required to play a play-set in split-screen multiplayer. Playing through the play sets unlocks objects and vehicles that can be used in the Toy Box Mode.

Mission Log[]

The Mission Log is available in every play set, accessed by opening up the "play set" menu. A log of completed and current missions is found here, along with a button allowing players to track down new missions, which are given by cast members. Additionally, a list of gold stars can be seen, displaying both complete and incomplete ones.

Toy Store[]

The Toy Store is also available in each of the six play sets, accessed at the "play set" menu. A full list of toys from the corresponding play set is displayed, with unlocked toys being available for purchase, while locked toys are darker and not able to be bought. In order to unlock the toys to purchase here, the player must complete missions, gold stars and other tasks throughout the play set. Once purchased, most toys will also be unlocked for use in the Toy Box, though there some that can't, such as the bikes from the Monsters University Play Set.

Toy Box[]

Toy Box mode allows the player to create their own world and stories, similar to Toy Box mode in Toy Story 3: The Video Game. It also allows the player to mix and match everything that is unlocked within the play sets including characters, weapons and gadgets. There are various "adventures" in this mode, which help teach the player how to use the mode's tools. Players can also earn "spins", which can be used to unlock additional items in the Toy Box, by playing through play sets as well as the "adventures" for the first time, or leveling up their characters. The mode supports online multiplayer, in which players can play around with items that only the other player has, albeit only during that session.

A portable Toy Box became available in late 2013, exclusively for the iPad. A version of the Toy Box is also available for the Microsoft Windows personal computer. These versions of the Toy Box utilize the web codes included with each Disney Infinity character.

Travel[]

The Travel list can be selected via the pause menu, or by stepping on the red circle on the Disney Infinity Hub. As the name suggests, the player can travel to different adventures, or to other toy boxes, including ones that are already prebuilt.

Mastery Adventures[]

Mastery Adventures are similar to adventures, but are more important, as they will unlock certain toys for use in the toy box. The six available mastery adventures are Building Mastery, Combat Mastery, Driving Mastery, Dynamics Mastery, Creativi-Toys Mastery Part 1, and Creativi-Toys Mastery Part 2. Each one has the player "master" a certain category, such as building or driving. Completing one of these will award the player with a spin for the Disney Infinity Vault, as well as the ability to use those toys in the toy box. The "Introduction to Disney Infinity" toy box will also expand, granting the player more areas to look for green capsules with spins in them.

Adventures[]

Adventures are mini-games that can be played to earn spins, or to level up a character. Three medals can be earned for each one - bronze, silver and gold, each one harder than the last. In addition to 9 default adventures, each character comes with their unique adventure, which can also be played to earn medals.

Prebuilt Toy Box Worlds[]

As the name implies, this can transport players to other toy boxes that come with the game, or are unlocked in vaults or chests in play set mode. There are nine total prebuilt toy boxes to build, three of which are unlocked from the start. The remaining six can be unlocked by opening chests or vaults within each of the six play sets.

The nine toy boxes available are Introduction to Disney Infinity, Toy Box Launch, Empty Toy Box, Monsters University Toy Box, Incredibles Toy Box, Pirates of the Caribbean Toy Box, Cars Toy Box, Lone Ranger Toy Box, and Toy Story in Space Toy Box.

Load[]

This feature lets players load toy boxes that they have created and saved to the system memory.

Online/Multiplayer[]

Online multiplayer is also available for Disney Infinity. When connected, players can play in each others' toy boxes, as well as play adventures and other activities together. Another online feature is the Toy Box Share, which allows players to upload their creations. Every week, the Disney Infinity YouTube channel holds toy box competitions revolving around one specific theme.

Disney Infinity Vault[]

The Disney Infinity Vault can be accessed via the yellow button on the Disney Infinity Hub, or by pausing the game and selecting it. Spins that have been earned by winning medals and leveling up characters can be used to win a toy. Each "page" has 16 items on it, and when a spin is used, one of the 16 objects will randomly be selected. Once an item is collected, the player can use another spin if they have one, increasing their chance of winning the toy they want. Additionally, the pages can be shuffled to include different items.

Collection[]

The Collection is a collection of the toys that have been earned in play set mode or the Disney Infinity Vault. These items can be placed in the Toy Box by pressing the "build" button.

Reset Gameplay[]

The Reset Gameplay feature removes all enemies that the player has placed, and will move the player to a "safe" place, which is usually the Disney Infinity Hub. This feature is presumably intended to help players if they are stuck in between a wall or block, and can not get out.

Playable characters[]

With 29 playable characters featured in Disney Infinity, there is a total of 4 playable Cars characters

It is currently unconfirmed whether or not new characters will eventually be made compatible with the original game, though it is unlikely.

Name Image Description
Lightning McQueen
Lightningmcqueen
Whatever the task, Lightning McQueen is quick to react. Whether he’s jumping a canyon, trailblazing through desert, or towing another character in the Cars Play Set, nothing slows him down.
Mater
Mater Disney INFINITY Render
Don't judge a book by its cover. Mater might be a bit rusty, but he's also got power under his hood. He's built for towing too, so he's one of the more helpful vehicles in the Cars Play Set.
Holley Shiftwell
Holley Disney INFINITY Render
Holley Shiftwell is as sharp and smart as she looks. Trained for any terrain, take Holley for a spin and she’ll make even the hardest corners in the Cars Play Set feel like child’s play.
Francesco Bernoulli
Francesco Disney INFINITY Render
Top European racer Francesco thinks he’s the hottest thing since wheels were invented. With his high-speed racing and gadgetry, the sleek Italian car is Lightning’s chief rival. Francesco can zip around the Cars Play Set and still have enough juice for showing off afterwards.

Play sets[]

There is a total of 6 play sets, with the first 5 being released in the first wave, while the Toy Story in Space Play Set was released with the second wave of releases.

Power Discs[]

Power Discs are discs that can be obtained by buying blind bags, which contain two power discs, though the buyer will not be able to see which ones they are buying. There are two types of power discs: circular and hexagonal. Circular discs improve stats and properties for the player's character, while hexagonal discs affect the way the game is played, whether it be adding new toys or changing scenery.

A Race to Space pack with Crystal Lightning McQueen and Crystal Buzz Lightyear was available at Toys "R" Us in the US with two exclusive round Power Discs called Emperor Zurg's Wrath and C.H.R.O.M.E. Damage Increaser.

Development[]

Xbox One, PlayStation 4 potential[]

Avalanche Software stated that Disney Infinity toys will be supported on Xbox One and PlayStation 4 consoles, and future next generation versions of Disney Infinity will likely result in a game that will be "way more beautiful," offer "a whole lot more" content, "or both." Disney Interactive Studios has not confirmed development, and no release dates have been set for possible Xbox One and PlayStation 4 versions.

Beta elements[]

Scrapped Cars characters[]

Playable data for the characters, The King, Grem, and Finn McMissile can be found within the game's files, with playable footage for all of them seen through game trailers and/or toy store videos within playsets.
