Gameplay[]
Fasten your seatbelts and prepare for sky-high fun as players embark on fire-and-rescue emergencies with all their favorite characters from the movie! Inspired by Disney's adventure-comedy adventure film, the Disney Planes: Fire & Rescue video game continues the storyline as players join the Piston Peak Air Attack team to fight fires and rescue those in need. Kids will embark on an adventure playing as any one of nine playable characters from the big screen including world-famous air racer Dusty and a new crop of characters Blade, Dipper, Dynamite and more! Together, kids will combine heroic action and teamwork as they scoop up water, drop smokejumpers and bulldoze debris in an effort to battle massive wildfires.
Players will soar across rich environments that feature iconic monuments and structures from the film as they participate in two exciting modes of play: Fire & Rescue and Training Academy. Take to the skies with 12 story missions and more than 30 training academy missions as players operate planes, helicopters and ground vehicles as to respond to emergencies. Heroes in training can "earn their wings" as they progress through training and story missions to reach new heights!

Trivia[]
- A DS version was going to be released (since Planes: The Video Game included it), but it was cancelled despite the cover shown on top right. It may be likely because coincidentally the DS was already discontinued towards the time the game was about to release, as their final game was "Big Hero 6: Battle in the Bay".
- The possible reason for the DS cancellation was probably because of being too recent to be available on such an outdated platform.
- Unlike the previous game and even all three Cars film-based games, this game was released at the same time as the film's home video release instead of a few days shortly before its theatrical release.
- Multiple prototypes of the DS version have been emulated.
- The earliest version is labeled "1724". It has no background for the title screen, and there are four language options: English, Spanish, French, and a broken Portuguese-language option.
- The next version is labeled "1726". It has no background for the title screen. The broken Portuguese-language option was removed in this version, replaced by German and Italian-language options.
- The third version is labeled "1252". A background for the title screen was added in this version, although it is incorrectly layered over the logo.
- The fourth version is just labeled "UNKNOWN". However, it seems to be the latest version, as the layering of the title screen was fixed in this version.
