Game Informer has the first details on Disney Infinity: Toy Story in Space in this month’s issue.

As the name suggests, the new Play Set places Buzz, Jessie, and Woody in a space setting. The three are looking to colonize a new planet that will act as the home for the three-eyed aliens found in vending machines.

After the base has been set up, the planet will be fitted with a hospital, clothing store, hatchery, and research center. Players will use these locations to help out the various aliens. As an example, you may find that an alien has eaten something it shouldn’t have, and will therefore need to be taken to the hospital.

There are also jetpack challenges, alien horse races, and a variety of platforming sections. Finish off certain missions to receive items such as a Star Command laser blaster, jet pack, hover pack. All of these rewards can be used in the Toy Box.

And what about Emperor Zurg? While he will show up in the new Play Set, his appearance could be limited to training-simulator exercises – at least based on Game Informer’s demo sampling.
