"Piggybacking off of the success of the Skylanders franchise, Disney Infinity hopes to capture the hearts of children who are growing up on Disney. Taking many of the newer Disney properties, Disney Infinity allows players to traverse several diverse Disney worlds, each a different game genre in itself. Unfortunately, though, the sheer amount of worlds amount for an even larger amount of expensive characters. As a result, although Disney Infinity can be incredibly memorable and unique for children, the guarantor may not be as satisfied with the price" -- Nintendo Enthusiast.
The toys-to-life genre has died out, but the concept of Disney Infinity should live on in another genre since it provides a wild crossover for fans.
There is a huge gap in the market at the moment. There aren’t many (if any) toys-to-life games available for the two consoles yet. A reboot or remake of the game would work so well, especially with Disney’s current roster of characters, films and TV shows.
Did Disney sell the rights to Activision? I never knew they had the rights to Disney Infinity.
They DO have the rights to Skylanders though.
Plus there's a financial reason every publisher gave up on the "toys to life" thing. So I doubt they'll revive any of them.
Is it possible Disney Infinity or other toys to games could return, but I'll be honest I really hope they don't come back.
These kinds of games are just another way for the game studios to nickle and dime you for every cent you have.
Disney Infinity was a fun game I could play with my kid back in the day. I still have it and the 100+ toys and yes, it works on PS5. But my kid is a teenager now and we've both moved on to more serious games.
Take a look at the rise and fall of Toys-To-Life games and see the magic it brought into everyone's home with games like Skylanders.
