take players on galaxy-spanning missions with Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia
Organa, Han Solo, Chewbacca and Darth Vader, piloting X-wing fighters or the Millennium
Falcon to fight stormtroopers, or exploring and partaking in land-based
missions on planets like Tatooine, Hoth, and Endor. Additionally, fans will have the unique
opportunity to play with all of the Star Wars characters in all of the Star Wars Play
Sets.
“Star Wars is a cross-generational
franchise, and Disney Infinity
3.0 creates an incredible opportunity for families and fans to
relive their favourite Star
Wars moments,” said John Blackburn, Senior Vice President and
General Manager of Disney Infinity. “With the addition of Star Wars, Inside Out and new Disney and Marvel
characters, Disney Infinity 3.0
will be the most ambitious and diverse offering yet and also the most
accessible.”
Disney Infinity 3.0 will also introduce an all-new, 3-D
