вЂњWhen we were thinking about what would be a really fun gameplay experience, everybody really likes driving and thereвЂ™s never been a kart racer that features Disney, Disney One of them is вЂњToy Box TakeoverвЂќ mode where the bad guys have amassed and are threatening some of your favorite characters, which sounds pretty cool but the expansion game we were most excited about is something called Toy BoxВ Speedway, a kart-racing game that features nine themed-tracks and three tournament cups (and, presumably, endless hours of shake-the-controller-in-victory fun). There are two new вЂњToy Box Expansion Games,вЂќ again part of that expanded Toy Box experience. вЂњSomething that weвЂ™re excited to see is what players actually end up doing when they bring all of those characters together,вЂќ Vignocchi told us. The Even-More-Impressive Toy Box 3.0 ModeДЄnd what that expanded roster translates to is an even more incredible experience in the Toy Box, where youвЂ™re allowed to let your imagination run wild and send Captain Jack Sparrow on an adventure with Elsa from Frozen (or any number of other amazing, outrageous combination). вЂњBy the end of 3.0вЂ™s life cycle weвЂ™re going to have over 100 playable characters inside DisneyВ Infinity.вЂќДЈ. And if youвЂ™re wondering how that will add up, well, itвЂ™s pretty incredible.

вЂњAll the characters from 1.0 and 2.0 will be compatible with 3.0 ,вЂќ Vignocchi assured us. If youвЂ™re worried that your characters from the previous Disney Infinity versions (everything from Lone RangerВ and Toy Story characters to Jack Skellington from The Nightmare Before Christmas) wonвЂ™t work with 3.0, fret not, for all of the characters are still, very much, playable. To paraphrase Jedi Master Yoda, if youвЂ™re not excited now, very soon you will be.

вЂњThere is a lot of careful planning and communication and a true partnership that happens.вЂќ More tantalizingly, Vignocchi said, вЂњPlayers are going to tell that Star Wars has joined DisneyВ Infinity.вЂќ And while details are purposefully sparse, expect, in addition to the initial packs that will be initially offered (Twilight of the Republic, which features a young Anakin and Ashoka that is set during the timeline established by the prequels, and Rise Against the Empire, which features characters from the classic trilogy), there will be, down the line, Disney Infinity content connected to the forthcoming Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Seriously, who isnвЂ™t excited about the Star Wars universe joining the Disney Infinity Toy Box? Especially since, according to Vignocchi, they have been gunning for the property for a while.

So without further ado, please enjoy our 7 favorite things about Disney Infinity 3.0 Edition. After talking with Vignocchi, we had a very good idea about where Disney Infinity is headed and why we are so excited about this latest version of the game. You can find out all of the details about this new Disney Infinity experience on the official page, but we wanted a little more insight so we sat down with John Vignocchi, VP Production at Disney Interactive and producer on Disney Infinity. ThatвЂ™s right вЂ“ lightsabers have come to the Toy Box. For the third iteration of the wildly popular game, which allows you to place gorgeously stylized, toy-like versions of some of your favorite characters on a small platform and then control those characters in mission-based gameplay and less restrictive, user-generated Toy Box levels that allow for unique character combinations, the Disney Infinity team has incorporated characters and elements from (deep breath) Star Wars. After months of speculation and an endless build-up of excitement, Disney Infinity 3.0 Edition was announced this morning.
