Star Wars joins Disney Infinity

Star Wars is coming to Disney Infinity.

The latest version of Disney Infinity will include characters and settings from the Star Wars universe.

Disney Infinity 3.0 is being developed by Avalanche Software in partnership with Ninja Theory, Sumo Digital, Studio Gobo, and United Front Games, and will be available for Xbox 360, Xbox One, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Windows PC, and mobile this winter.

The game's Starter Pack will retail for $120, and will include a Star Wars: Twilight of the Republic playset, Ahsoka Tano and Anakin Skywalker character figures, and a web code card that unlocks content for PC and mobile devices.

All figures and Power Discs from the 1.0 and 2.0 editions of Disney Infinity will be compatible with 3.0.

Expansions for the game will include:

* Three Star Wars Play Sets, one set in the timeline of Episodes I-III, the second set during the original trilogy, Episodes IV-VI, and the third available this summer based on Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

* Additional Play Sets offering distinct gameplay and environments, including a Pixar Play Set based on the upcoming film Inside Out, and a Marvel Play Set featuring Hulkbuster Iron Man, Ultron, and other Marvel characters.

* A fully enhanced Toy Box with two new multiplayer Toy Box Expansion Games, Toy Box Speedway (kart racing) and Toy Box Takeover (action-adventure).

* More figures of fan-favourite characters from across The Walt Disney Company, like Mickey and Minnie, Sam Flynn and Quorra from Tron: Legacy, Mulan and Olaf, among many others.

"Disney Infinity is the only game where fans can play with Disney, Pixar, Marvel, and Star Wars characters together in one experience," said Disney Interactive president James Pitaro.

"We worked closely with Lucasfilm to deliver an authentic Star Wars game experience, featuring some of the most iconic stories and characters from the past, present and future."
