Who is the ultimate decider on what characters become figures and playsets and so on? GamesBeat: There’s a lot of synergy within the company with these, coming out to support new releases. And at the same time we’re able to draft off this great new film coming out. Going with this particular strategy of celebrating the release of the film, but kind of hyping it with a classic animated character, was the right strategy to appease our fans. If you’ve been involved in our community or know everything that’s happening around it, you know that we have huge fans of classic Disney animation. We’ll go into the development of that character, show some of his special moves, just some of the overall thoughts the development team had behind bringing this classic animated character to Disney Infinity. That will be compatible with Disney Infinity 3.0 and our Toybox mode. ![]() But inside this particular inaugural episode we’re doing, toward the end we’ll reveal that in support of Jon Favreau’s new live action version of The Jungle Book, prior to the release of the film, we’ll be releasing a classic animated version of Baloo. There’s obviously the Peter Pan figure, which we’ll get into in a future version of Disney Infinity Next. Those characters and content will be compatible with Marvel Battlegrounds. There are more Marvel characters and content coming this year. At the end of the Battlegrounds section we’ll drop an Easter egg.

That will release on March 15, prior to the release of Captain America: Civil War. Vignocchi: Our first big playset that’s going to be dropping will be the one in support of Marvel this year, which will be Marvel Battlegrounds. GamesBeat: Is there a release date for any of this yet? But no confirmation on what that content is. We’re supporting Disney, as opposed to Disney Animation specifically, with lots of new content. Last year, coming out Toybox Summit, our Toybox artists chose Peter Pan as a new character that’s coming.ĭisney Infinity Next, although not in this first episode, will be revealing that character, showing his in-game moves, and showing what the figure will look like. But what’s interesting is there’s a lot of - depending on how close you’ve been following Infinity, that could mean a lot of different things. GamesBeat: I think I can connect some dots on what those might be. Vignocchi: Nothing beyond that one will be Pixar, one will be Disney Animation, one will be Star Wars, and one will be Marvel.
