Today, August 12, and Thursday, August 13, Disney Interactive is hosting this year’s Disney Infinity 2015 Toy Box Summit, live from the Disneyland Resort. Top Toy Box Artists from around the world will gather for an in-depth, hands-on look at the newly enhanced Disney Infinity 3.0 Edition Toy Box mode, meet the developers from Avalanche Software – the team behind the successful “toys-to-life” franchise – and compete in a Toy Box building competition.
The Toy Box Summit events will be held from 10 a.m. – 1 p.m. PDT on August 12 and 13, and you can follow along with the livestream at twitch.tv/disney.
At the conclusion of Wednesday’s panels, Toy Box Artists will be teamed up with a Toy Box Mentor to compete in the first-ever Disney Infinity 3.0 Edition building competition. They will have all afternoon and evening to build the best Toy Boxes possible. Though this portion of the day will not be livestreamed on Twitch, the live event coverage will continue on Periscope and Twitter at @DisneyInfinity.
A panel of judges will decide the Toy Box 3.0 Competition winner based on theme, design, gameplay and creativity. In addition, the community will be invited to vote for its favorite, which will be announced next week.
