Disney Mirrorverse is a 2022 mobile role-playing game developed and produced as a collaboration between Disney and Kabam. The game is a crossover set in a fictional universe adjacent to other Disney canon and features characters from many films and franchises re-envisioned in a new storyline. Released internationally on June 23, 2022, it was positively received by players, while critics were more ambivalent towards the game.
Gameplay and premise
Disney Mirrorverse is an action role-playing game.[1] The story takes place in a parallel universe called the "Mirrorverse" where locations from Walt Disney Pictures' films, such as Port Royal from Pirates of the Caribbean and Agrabah from Aladdin, have been transformed by dark and light magic. In the game, a sorcerer version of Mickey Mouse finds the mystical Stellar Mirror, which the Fractured (crystal-like monsters) want to destroy in order to break apart the Mirrorverse. To safeguard the Stellar Mirror, Mickey assembles the Guardians, who are alternate versions of characters from Disney's films and franchises.[2][3][4] Guardians are unlocked through "Crystals", with each character having a star-rating that can be increased by obtaining duplicates.[5] Having the option for team-based play allows for various "combos" to utilize the unique strategies and abilities of different characters.[6]
Outside of the main storyline, other game modes include "Alliance Missions"—in which players join an Alliance to compete against other Alliances to obtain rank-based rewards—"Tower of Talents"—in which Players utilize themed teams of Guardians to move through levels to gain advancement items—and "Dangerous Dungeons"—in which players compete against one another in a dynamic dungeon setting to acquire progression items and other special rewards.[7]
Development and release
Disney Mirrorverse is a collaboration between Disney and the interactive entertainment company Kabam. The two companies had formerly worked together on Marvel Contest of Champions and Star Wars: Uprising.[8] Kabam soft-launched the game in the Philippines on April 14, 2020.[9] In March 2022, the game's trailer was released.[7] As of June 10, 2022, Disney reported 1 million pre-registered players, maxing out their Milestone Rewards track.[6] The game was released worldwide on June 23, 2022.[7]
Reception
Disney Mirrorverse was generally well-received by players, though it drew criticism for its microtransactions.[4] Review aggregator Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned a game a score of 69 out of 100, based on 9 critical reviews, indicating "mixed or average reviews".[1]
