Also on exhibit at the Holiday Showcase was Disney Infinity 2.0, with special attention to the new Marvel figures arriving this fall. Disney Infinity 2.0 will feature new skill trees, allowing users to develop particular skills for each character, such as healing or combat. Disney Infinity 1.0 figures will be forwards-compatible with this new system, and will be able to develop skill trees as well.

New Event Discs and Team Up Discs will allow players to call in an event, such as a missile strike from Nick Fury, or team up with another (unplayable) character, who can assist in combat.

The auto-creator feature is another new addition. In toybox mode, players can place one structural piece, and the game will automatically expand from that point, making land development easy for those who might find it daunting to build in such an open world.

These are just some of the many products Disney is rolling out for this year’s fall and holiday seasons, many more of which can be seen in the slideshow below including more Marvel, Star Wars, and Frozen. Look for these products to hit Disney Store shelves as well as many in toy stores everywhere in the coming months.
