Let’s Cry Over What Could Have Been As The Unreleased ‘Disney Infinity’ Spider-Gwen Is Revealed

One of the most  disappointing aspects of the sudden cancellation of Disney Infinity is that the development team at Avalanche Games had no idea it was coming. The team had recently hinted at a list of future content, some of which we knew about, (such as the fan voted Peter Pan,) and others we assumed would stay locked away in the planning stages. Well, thanks to alleged insider sources releasing exclusive details of what could have been to the Disney Infiniteers YouTube channel, they’re latest reveal is straight up heartbreaking.

In the video below, it shows that Spider-Gwen was planned as being one of the game’s next big Marvel releases, with the expectation being that she would be a very popular figure. With her unique base featuring her perched on a brick building with that kick-ass pose, it’s no wonder why. Alongside the Doctor Strange toy that was shown in a previous video, it shows that the team was serious when it came to expanding the super hero side of their line-up, making it even worse knowing that they’ll never see the light of day.

With Gwen Stacy being one of my favorite comic book characters while Disney Infinity was my favorite Toys To Life game, this news is especially frustrating for me. I almost feel like I would have rather not known, but I can appreciate how the design team would have crafted another amazing figure that does the character justice yet again. Is there hope that Disney could release the figure without game integration down the road? I wouldn’t bet on it, but I’ll hold on to my misguided hope. It’s all I have left!

Check out Gwen in all her glory below, then let us know what your thoughts are on the rest of the unreleased characters in the comments!
