Disney Speedstorm — the hero-based combat racing game inspired by Disney and Pixar worlds — is set to launch in early access next month, on 18th April.
This date kicks off a period of paid early access across PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC (via Steam and Epic Games Store).
When its time in early access concludes, Disney Speedstorm will then get its general free-to-play release.
«We're eager for fans to start their engines by joining us on the Disney Speedstorm race tracks throughout early access and battle each other as iconic racers on stunning tracks inspired by Disney and Pixar films,» said game manager Aska Suzuki in a press release.
«We can't wait to hear our community's feedback and to work together to create a game that is reactive to the needs and wants of the players as we plan to offer a constantly evolving racing experience.»
Those who wish to pre-order can start to do so now across most platforms. Anyone wanting to to pre-order the game on PlayStation, however, will have to wait a few more days, with these pre-orders not kicking off until 20th March.
