Disney Infinity is a sandbox game set across various Disney stories. For the first time, players will place real-world interactive figures - characters, power discs and landmark pieces - on a device called the "Disney Infinity Base" to activate original, story-driven adventures in the game worlds, also known as "Play Sets ", of Monsters University, Pirates of the Caribbean, and The Incredibles.

The game was originally going to be released sometime in June 2013, but it was delayed until August 18, 2013 for the United States, August 20 overseas, and August 23 in the United Kingdom.[1]

The Starter Pack edition of the game is bundled with three figurines and an Infinity Base. The Infinity Base has two round spots to place figurines, and a hexagonal spot to place world discs. When the figurines are placed on the Infinity Base, the characters are imported into the game, while world discs unlock Play Sets.

Modes

Play Set
  • You have just the franchise the set belongs to; you cannot put in out-of-franchise characters. According to the official description for the book Disney INFINITY: Infinite Possibilities, there will be six play sets initially.
  • In each respective Play Set, players will take on the role of a variety of popular characters including Sulley, the naturally gifted scarer; Captain Jack Sparrow , the sword-wielding double crosser; and Mr. Incredible, one of the world's greatest crime-fighters, and battle enemies, solve challenging puzzles, overcome obstacles, and complete a variety of other unique quests.
Toy Box
  • As players advance through each adventure, they will collect characters, vehicles, upgrades, gadgets and more which they can save to a virtual Toy Box. At any time, players can access their personal Toy Box and use the items to create one-of-a-kind Disney adventures featuring any combination of characters, environments and items across all franchises. The possibilities are endless and players are only limited by their imaginations.

Issues with PS3 version

After launch, several people playing the game on the PlayStation 3 encountered problems with the screen freezing and the online play not working. The game producers recommended deleting the 1.01 patch, which helped most players, though online play was not possible. Any similar problems with other versions of the game have not, as of yet, been reported. The Disney Infinity Facebook Page stated that they are working hard on fixing the problem.[3] A few days later, Patch 1.03 came out and solved most of the problems. [4]
