Disney Interactive has confirmed that the Cars franchise will act as the fourth Play Set for Disney Infinity. The Incredibles, Monsters University and Pirates of the Caribbean Play Sets will also be available at launch.

Disney describes the Cars Play Set as follows:

The Cars Play Set allows gamers to take on the role of Lightning McQueen, Mater, Holley Shiftwell and Francesco Bernoulli and enter the virtual world of Radiator Springs, where they will prepare the town for a big international racing event. In addition to customizing the town, exploring the outskirts of the city and towing all types of vehicles to make way for tourists, players will be able to race through town, on full sized tracks and pull off amazing, gravity defying feats in a no-holds-barred stunt park.

In Toy Box mode, Lightning, Mater, Holley and Francesco are able to interact with all of the previously revealed characters from The Incredibles, Monsters University and Pirates of the Caribbean; and in addition to characters, the Cars Play Set adds driving/racing play mechanics and track pieces to the Toy Box allowing players to create all-new racing challenges, build and customize tracks and much more.
