Disney has announced in an earnings statement, which was also relayed on Twitter, that the company has cancelled the Infinity video game line. Taking a $147,000,000 charge, it is effectively the end of Disney as a video game publisher. This is because Disney has shut down their video game publishing division. They have also closed Avalanche Software. Avalanche Software developed the Infinity games as a subsidiary of Disney when Disney acquired the studio in 2005, and has been a developer of video games since the days of the SEGA Genesis and Super Nintendo Entertainment System.

The last installment in the Disney Infinity series was Disney Infinity 3.0, which was released last year.
