Disneymix

Disneymix is a crossover Action RPG-Fighting Game developed by Insomniac Games, PerBlue, and Respawn Entertainment. Disneymix features numerous characters from three main franchises that Disney owns- the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Star Wars, and their various orginal creations (e.g. Mickey Mouse).

Disneymix was revealed to the public at E3 2019 by Insomniac Games. Insomniac announced that they would be collaborating with PerBlue, the developers of Disney Heroes, and Respawn Entertainment, the developers of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. The staff of the game was a mix between the Marvel's Spider-Man development team and the Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order development team. It runs on Unreal Engine 4.

The game's roster will feature 60 characters in total- 20 from each main franchise. Only 30 of these characters will be available from the start of the game, as the other 30 will be unlockable.

Plot
After being killed in 2023, Thanos makes his way back from the dead. He is stopped by Darth Vader who is backed by Emperor Palpatine and Darth Maul. Vader and his gang attack Thanos before the four of them form an alliance. The crew then go on a quest to find Jafar, Scar, and Maleficent. Once the latter three are found, these villains aim to conquer Earth and defeat the heroes they hate.

In a galaxy far, far away, a mysterious looking vortex traps some of the most valuable heroes that this universe have every seen. Heroes from all generations are sent to Earth, as they must team up with Earth's Mightiest Heroes to stop the evildoers from taking over the planet.

It's a classic fight between good and evil. But this time, there's no guarantee of a happy ending.

Gameplay
Disneymix is a 2.5D Action-RPG that integrates the open-world mechanics of games like Marvel's Spider-Man with the traditional fighting game mechanics of games like ''Street Fighter. ''Each fighter in the game has their own moves and special attacks. Each character has a single bar of health and a bar for special attacks (the Z-Bar). When the Z-Bar fills up, a character can use their special attack.

In some levels, there is a third character bar- the Switchbar. Some of the included levels in the game have a Switch mode. This mode allows characters to switch the view of the game. Once a character's Switchbar is filled up, they can switch the view of the game from a typical fighting-game POV to a third-person open-world POV (e.g. Red Dead Redemption 2).

Each character has different skills, special moves, and abilities that are to their benefit and detriment. For example, characters like Rey and Luke Skywalker are quite skilled with weapons, but their hand-to-hand combat abilities are very low. However, characters like Hulk is skilled with hand-to-hand combat but inept with weapons.

Disneymix features unlockable characters and costumes purchasable in the in-game store. This currency, Mixcoin, can be earned by playing and winning matches, completing minigames, finishing chapters in story mode, and various other ways. Mixcoin can also be bought with real money.

Game Modes
Story: Story mode follows the plot stated earlier. The player starts off choosing a single character from any of the three franchises and ventures through three acts.

The final boss fight is in seven waves- as the player fights every villain mentioned in the intro (Thanos, Darth Vader, Palpatine, Darth Maul, Jafar, Scar, and Maleficent).

Purefight: Purefight mode allows you to pick one character and fight other characters in the franchise of the character you picked. For example, if you picked Rey as your starting character, then you would fight other characters in the Star Wars franchise. The final bosses are as follows:

Jafar (Disney Franchise)
