Disney Infinity was announced in January. The video game and toyline were recently delayed until August. Expected to be a direct competitor with Activision's Skylander series, Disney Infinity is a multi-platform title that draws Disney and Pixar characters into a sandbox world where players will be able to create their own adventures.

Disney Infinity will launch August 18 for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Wii, Wii U and Nintendo 3DS.
