Disney Interactive revealed that Ninja Theory had been brought on as a development partner for Disney Infinity 2.0 at PAX Prime a few weeks ago. However, this is just the start of the company’s collaborations.

Speaking with GameSpot, Disney Infinity executive producer John Vignocchi teased additional partners that will be announced in the future.

He said:

“It’s an interesting collaboration, and one that I don’t think people saw coming. They’re really great at what they do and we’ve designed Infinity to be a platform, not only for players to expand content, but for developers to join and create content based on the amazing catalog of IP we have at Disney.”

“Over time, we’ll be announcing more developers that are joining the platform, but for right now we’re thrilled that [Ninja Theory] is a part of this. It will make sense over time why we’ve chosen these developers to help us. The thing that we cared most about was bringing on developers that would raise our game.”

There is one thing for certain: one of those partners is not Nintendo. Vignocchi noted that “no official discussions have happened, as of yet.”

“Nintendo has presented Amiibo to us and I think they have a very interesting strategy. We’re always interested in talking with partners–whether it’s first-party or independent developers–on ways we can integrate their content inside of the platform. But no official discussions have happened, as of yet.”

Curve Studios has four games coming to Wii U. The company previously announced Stealth Inc 2, The Swapper, and Lone Survivor for the eShop. Thanks to a listing on the USK, we now know what the fourth game is.

The German ratings board has outed Thomas Was Alone for Wii U. It’s unclear when the game will be available, but I imagine it could arrive before the end of this year.
