The Guardians of the Galaxy Play Set is coming to Disney Infinity 2.0, Disney Interactive revealed today. It will be available this fall.
Here’s a brief overview of the Play Set:
The Guardians of the Galaxy Play Set follows Star-Lord and his fellow Guardians as they arrive at Knowhere, having just stolen a powerful cosmic object from the villainous Ronan the Accuser. Players will guide the team as they race to protect Knowhere from Ronan and his attacking Sakaaran fleet while keeping their newly liberated item safe from the villain’s evil grasp.
Star-Lord, Rocket Raccoon, Drax, Gamora and Groot, along with crossover characters Iron Man (from The Avengers Play Set) and Nova (from The Spider-Man Play Set) will be playable. Mission givers include Cosmo, The Collector and Yondu.
Star-Lord, Rocket Raccoon, Drax, Gamora and Groot will also be playable in the new Toy box. Developer Avalanche Software is also planning a few structured Toy Box Games, which are as follows:

Tetris Ultimate officially announced for 3DS
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 1 Comment
Ubisoft has officially announced its new Tetris game – Tetris Ultimate – for 3DS. It’s scheduled to arrive this fall.
Tetris Ultimate features seven modes, including the exclusive single-player Challenge mode that will put any player’s determination to the test.
Here’s an overview of the different modes:
• Marathon – Complete level 15 and rack up as many points as you can.
• Endless – Keep clearing lines until your stamina runs out.
• Ultra – Race to score as many points possible before time runs out in this three-minute challenge.
• Sprint – Clear 40 lines as quickly as you can.
• Battle – Go head-to-head to knock out 1-4 challengers.
• Battle Ultimate – Be the last person playing after using crazy power-ups. Go on the offensive with Carousel and make your opponent’s Well shift to the left after each move, or trigger Let it Rain and dump garbage down on top of them. Buzz Saw helps you out by clearing away a number of your lines, especially useful when you’re in a spot of trouble.
• Challenge – From disappearing Tetriminos (Tetris playing pieces) to orientation-locked Tetriminos, be prepared for a variety of challenges that will test a player’s fortitude.
Aside from these modes, Tetris Ultimate will also include real-time worldwide leaderboards.
