Universal Studios Legendary Heroes

Universal Studios Legendary Heroes (also known as Universal Legendary Heroes and sometimes known as Universal Studios Infinity or simply Universal Infinity) is an upcoming action-adventure sandbox video game featuring the animated characters by Universal Animation Studios, Illumination and DreamWorks Animation, all owned by Universal Studios. It is being developed by Avalanche Software and is to be published by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, in partnership with NBCUniversal, for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch for release on September 28, 2018.

The game will be a successor to the Disney Infinity series, in which Disney abandoned the series on May 10, 2016 due to Avalanche Software's closure until it was acquired and re-opened by Warner Bros. on January 24, 2017. Like Disney Infinity, the setting of the game is a giant customizable universe of imagination, populated with toy versions of iconic Universal, Illumination and DreamWorks characters.

Gameplay
Universal Studios Legendary Heroes is an action-adventure game that uses collectible figurines that are then virtualized within the game, allowing for animated characters from Universal Studios properties to interact and go on adventures.

Development
With a lack of growth in Toys-to-life market and increasing developmental costs, the Disney Infinity series was discontinued on May 10, 2016, along with Avalanche Software's closure, despite some sources stating that there were some major plans in place to keep the series alive, and the presence of numerous new characters and playsets previously planned.

On January 24, 2017, following Avalanche Software's re-opening and acquisition by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, they have announced a partnership with Universal Studios to make an action-adventure sandbox video game using characters from properties by Universal-owned animation studios, such as Gingo Animation, Illumination Entertainment, and DreamWorks Animation. It will be a successor to the Disney Infinity series. At E3 2017, the first gameplay demo was shown and it was announced that the game would be released in 2018.
