Pixar’s Toy Story Enters the Brawl Stars Game World for Holiday Season Takeover

HELSINKI, FRIDAY 13TH DECEMBER 2024 – Get ready for a nostalgic and thrilling event in Brawl Stars this holiday season, as Pixar’s Toy Story takes over the mobile game’s theme park world. This special event introduces Buzz Lightyear as a playable character, new skins, game modes, and the beloved Pizza Planet Arcade. Running from December 12 to February 5, this collaboration promises to deliver an unforgettable gaming experience.

Buzz Lightyear Joins the Brawl Stars Universe

From December 12, Buzz Lightyear will be available to all players for a limited time, marking the first-ever introduction of a character from outside the Brawl Stars universe. The legendary Space Ranger brings with him three different battle modes: laser, wing, and saber mode, each paying homage to iconic moments from the Buzz Lightyear movies. These modes ensure varied and exciting gameplay, allowing players to experience Buzz Lightyear’s heroic moves in a whole new way.

Toy Story-Inspired Makeovers for Brawlers

In addition to Buzz Lightyear, selected members of the Brawl Stars roster will receive Toy Story-inspired skins. Characters such as Colt, Bibi, and Jessie will be transformed into Woody (Woody Colt), Bo Peep (Bibi Bo Peep), and Jessie (Jessie Jessie). These exclusive skins provide a fun, festive flair to the game. Players will also be able to acquire a Buzz Lightyear skin for Surge after the takeover ends, adding another layer of excitement to the event.

Introducing the Pizza Planet Arcade

Starting from January 2, Starr Park, Brawl Stars’ theme park setting, will open a new pop-up: the Pizza Planet Arcade. Inspired by the iconic venue from the Toy Story movies, the Pizza Planet Arcade challenges players to collect Pizza Slices. These slices can be exchanged for Toy Story-themed cosmetics such as pins and icons, or to unlock a new Brawler. The arcade also introduces three new temporary gameplay modes, offering nostalgic vibes and fresh, chaotic ways to brawl.

Collaboration Highlights Teamwork and Fun

Frank Keienburg, Brawl Stars General Manager, expressed his enthusiasm for the collaboration, saying, “Toy Story is the ideal collab for us, as the theme of teamwork and creating connections with others is at the core of Brawl Stars. Just like when Buzz Lightyear first arrives in Toy Story, rivalry and competitive tension in our game often lead to respect and friendship once the dust has settled. It’s awesome to team up with Disney and Pixar and to introduce Buzz Lightyear as our first-ever playable character from outside the Brawl Stars universe.”

Disney & Pixar’s Perspective

Luigi Priore, VP, GM – Disney & Pixar Games, added, “We’re always looking for new and surprising ways to bring our characters to players. With Buzz Lightyear’s years of Space Ranger Academy training, he is uniquely equipped to be the first-ever character to make the inter-dimensional journey into the universe of Brawl Stars. Toy Story fans are in for an extra treat when they jump into the action-packed fun in Pizza Planet Arcade, inspired by the iconic venue from the films.”
