With Disney Infinity's [] c, and the game's various online components, it was probably only a matter of time before news of the game's various shutdown dates would be revealed. And thanks to reader Brandon who sent us over an email sent to Disney Infinity customers, we know when services are being shut down and the apps will be pulled. , and the mobile versions will not work at all. The Apple TV version will work and be available until March 3, 2017.
While online-enabled features in games can do some cool things, it also means that once the games stop being viable, they die. And it's unfortunate for anyone who sunk time and money into the Disney Infinity ecosystem that basically, all they'll be left with are toys that don't actually seem like they'd be much fun as toys. There is a question if, especially for Disney, the goodwill to keep these games running would be worth whatever maintenance costs to keep the mobile versions functional for a while longer. Especially since this is less than a year since Disney Infinity 3.0 released.
Who are we kidding, nothing can kill people's love for Disney. You're here forever.
