Update: JV has confirmed that the digital download will be available for $19.99 – platforms have yet to be officially announced but we can assume it will be available for Playstation 3, Xbox 360, Wii U and Playstation 4 – unfortunately however, the Xbox One users will need to purchase the Starter Pack as the disney infinity base from the Xbox 360 will not be compatible.

What’s up Disney Infinity fans!

So, we’ve just had confirmation that the digital release of the Disney Infinity 2.0 game software will be available from November onwards, it will launch at a similar time as the Disney Infinity 2.0 Toy Box Starter Packs which are set to be released around the 4th November 2014.

JV has confirmed this in his tweet below

Why would you want to wait for the digital release?

For those avid Disney Infinity fans, the chances are you already have the gaming base, therefore the 2.0 Starter Pack isn’t massively attractive to you because your simply paying for the new game software and The Avengers Play Set which you will be able to purchase separately in the future (most likely November as well) but you are paying a premium at $74.99 (Amazon).

But are you paying a premium?

If you already have the game base, I can understand your frustration but with preorder promotions from the majority of retailers giving you one extra figure free you are getting 4 figures, The Avengers Play Set & the game software for $74.99, this breaks down to:

4 figures at $13.96 each (Amazon prices) = $55.84

Game Software = $19.99 when purchased separately or $19.15 when purchased as part of the Preorder deal.

Meaning the Game Software works out at $19.15 if you don’t include anything else you get within the Starter Pack such as the Toy Box game discs and the poster, and the fact you will get it on release date.

What’s the price of the digital content?

We don’t yet know this, but the chances are Disney Interactive will strategically price it, they are a business after all.

Is it worth waiting until November?

Personally, we don’t think so – yes you will have another Disney Infinity base but think of it as a spare!
