Disney Infinity’s online features will shutter March 2017, but console versions will remain playable
It’s not the only big Infinity change taking hold in September though…
“The Disney Infinity Community team will no longer be reviewing or approving any new Toy Boxes that are submitted to Disney for all console, mobile and PC versions of the game. However if you are playing on any console, Apple TV or Windows 8/10 versions of the game, you can continue to download your favourite Toy Boxes from the Community Content section until 3 March 2017.”
On 3 March 2017, the Apple TV and Windows 8/10 versions of the game will no longer be playable. In fact, the date will see all Disney Infinity online and community features turned off across platforms. The team has noted in a FAQ that console versions will still be playable after March 2017 though.
