Disney Infinity Toy Box 2 Updated for MFi Controller Support
You know, I’m not sure what the deal with this week is, but I hope it keeps on coming! Yesterday we had Modern Combat 5 and Grand Theft Auto: Vice City updated, today we have Disney Infinity Toy Box 2 joining the MFi controller support bandwagoon.
Disney Infinity Toy Box is a hugely ambitious iOS game. Weighing in at a whopping 3.8 gigs, and featuring incredibly polished and smooth Metal-powered graphics, this feels much closer to a console game to a mobile experience. Support for console-style Extended controllers makes for a gaming experience that is almost indistinguishable from a major console release.
For the collectors among us, the entire Disney Infinity experience is based heavily on connecting “interactive” toy figures to the apps, and bringing those figures into the games. Kids love this stuff, and it wouldn’t surprise me one bit to see MFi controllers selling quite quickly to parents looking to get their kids off the family TV.
The number of figures available is massive – just check Disney Interactive’s Amazon page – and all of these figures are useable on iOS and console, with progress being shared between them.
The app itself is a free download, so if you have a modern device and 4.4 gigs of disk space, give it a download; it’s one of the showpieces of the iOS platform.
