"Disney Infinity&amp;#039;s toys will be supported on Xbox One and PS4, developer Avalanche Software has said. Producer John Day said the franchise will &amp;quot;inevitably, eventually&amp;quot; come to next-generation platforms, adding it is intended to last for years.  &amp;quot;When we launch the game [this August] we won&amp;#039;t be on those platforms, we&amp;#039;ll be on the current gen stuff, and to be fair, we are launching ahead of those consoles,&amp;quot; he told Digital Spy. &amp;quot;Infinity is a product we see having a long life span, it&amp;#039;ll be developed for years to come. I don&amp;#039;t have specific details or plans about that, but it seems inevitable that we&amp;#039;ll have to cross that bridge.&amp;quot; Day added that toys and toy readers released now will be compatible with future consoles. &amp;quot;We&amp;#039;ve invested a lot of time and technology into future proofing all the stuff we&amp;#039;ve got,&amp;quot; he said. &amp;quot;We&amp;#039;re going to be using the same reader, the same near-field communications tech moving forward.  &amp;quot;So Mr Incredible from this version of Infinity, in all likelihood, should work on whatever we&amp;#039;re doing with Infinity five years from now.&amp;quot; Day added that future next-gen versions of Disney Infinity will likely result in a game that will be &amp;quot;way more beautiful&amp;quot;, offer &amp;quot;a whole lot more&amp;quot; content, &amp;quot;or both&amp;quot;. Originally scheduled for release in June, Disney Infinity was pushed to August at the request of retailers. The Starter Pack will come with The Incredibles, Pirates of the Caribbean and Monsters University, alongside separate Lone Ranger and Cars packs.  Play Sets are essentially self-contained and story-driven worlds for each respective Disney universe, each featuring their own combat systems, toys and gameplay styles. Meanwhile, Toy Box allows players to freely mix and match franchises and gadgets, along with having deep customisation features to edit the environment and even create new games. Disney Infinity will be available on Xbox 360, PS3, PC, Wii and Wii U on August 23. &amp;gt; Our preview of Disney Infinity: Skylanders challenger not the usual toy story Watch the announcement trailer for Disney Infinity below:  "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
