...

Disney is expected to continue investing in "Infinity," a combination videogame and toy line that launched in August and has sold more than three million copies world-wide. Disney spent more than $100 million developing and launching "Infinity".

New versions of "Infinity" featuring characters from Disney's Marvel superhero unit and the Star Wars universe it acquired along with Lucasfilm in 2012 are being developed, one of these people said.

During the quarter ended Sept. 28, the launch of "Infinity" helped Disney Interactive to generate $16 million operating income on $396 million of revenue, only the second profitable quarter in its five-year history.

"New versions" hmmm very intriguing sounds like they are going down the marvel infinity and Star Wars infinity route. Makes sense!

I'm hoping that there will be a Star Wars Infinity and Marvel Infinity. Both are massive franchises with so many character and play set possibilities that it would be best if they were separate from Disney Infinity. It would be fun if characters could crossover in toy box mode though.

Scary prospect, as my wallet is already feeling the effect of DI1, let alone Disney Infinity 2, Star Wars/Lucasfilm Infinity and Marvel Infinity all at once! Hopefully they will cycle them annually.

I'm smiling over the confirmation! :mrgreen: But I'm not really surprise knowing Disney owns both.

Here's the real question.... this mostly applies to Star Wars. Will it be Disney characters as SW characters (ex: Jedi Mickey) or even possibly BOTH versions. What I mean by that is they can do Disney's version of Star Wars AND do a original version of Star Wars characters. Or integrate the two?! I'm not sure which way they will go on this, as they do like to do the Disney version with Stormtroopers , as we've seen here at Star Wars Weekends in Disney World every year.

Hmmm... I wonder! 8-)

Yes!!!! Star Wars and Marvel will be great add-ons, but they NEED to have a playset.
