For those unfamiliar with the game, Disney Speedstorm is a racer featuring characters spanning several Disney and Pixar franchises. A number of characters have been confirmed for the game thus far, including Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Belle, Beast, Baloo, Jack Sparrow, Mulan, and James “Sulley” Sullivan. All of those characters have gotten sleek redesigns to fit the racing motif, and the game’s courses will also pay tribute to several films. Thus far, Gamelot has showcased tracks based on The Jungle Book, Beauty and the Beast, Pirates of the Caribbean, and Hercules.
Once the closed beta begins, we should have a better idea how the game is shaping up! There are still a lot of questions about monetization, local multiplayer, and more. Disney Speedstorm looks like it has a lot of potential, and it will be interesting to see if the game will be able to avoid any potential “pay to win” problems. Hopefully, this closed beta means that a full release won’t be too far away, and all players will have the chance to see what the game has to offer!
Disney Speedstorm is set to release later this year onNintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox SeriesX|S, and PC. Readers can check out all of our previous coverage of thegame right here.
