When exactly is Disney Speedstorm Season 6 coming out, though, and what will be included? We've got everything you need to know right here!
Disney Speedstorm Season 6
Disney Speedstorm has been releasing seasonal content ever since the game was released last year. There was a good amount of content from day one, but this has been greatly expanded upon since then.
Previous seasons have included content from Frozen, Lilo & Stitch, Toy Story and a whole lot more. Season 6 brings content inspired by the underwater world of The Little Mermaid.
Disney Speedstorm Season 6 sees players race in a new Atlantica environment inspired by the underwater kingdom in The Little Mermaid filled with hazards to avoid.
New racers joining Disney Speedstorm's expanding cast of characters in Season 6 include Ariel, Ursula, King Triton, and Prince Eric from The Little Mermaid, along with EVE as a bonus racer. Each character comes with a unique set of abilities.
Season 6 Release Date
Gameloft has confirmed that Disney Speedstorm Season 6 will launch on 8 February, so there's not long to wait.
Season 6 will launch for all consoles and worldwide. These platforms include the PC, Switch, Mobile, PlayStation and Xbox versions of Disney Speedstorm.
