The latest Toy Box update to Disney Infinity pays homage to one of the year's biggest games. "Toy Columbia" lets you explore "a sprawling city in the sky with infinite possibilities." Just in case you couldn't figure it out, we're talking about BioShock Infinite.

Weekly Toy Box updates have been available every week in Disney Infinity, but this blatant throwback to an M-rated shooter tickled our fancy. Other additions this week include "Sky Gauntlet," "Jungle Cruise," "Trench Run," and "Blue Breakout."

To download new Toy Box content, you'll have to select "Toy Box" from the main menu, and then select "Toy Box Share." From there, go to "Disney's Toy Boxes," and you'll be able to select and download the content that you want. Here's a look at "Toy Columbia":

      Who is this for? I can't imagine there being a huge cross market between Disney Infinity and Bioshock fans, unless the entire reasoning for this was they that they both have similar title names.

        It's a city in the sky, that's awesome in it's own right.

        Probably just a wink and a nod to parents who have played it.

        It's user-made content. Disney didn't make it, so obviously someone's playing this who also played Infinite.

      It's kind of sad that that engine has better scope than the tiny ass Unreal engine maps Irrational has to use. It would be cool if everyone dropped Unreal engine for good open world solutions next gen.

      what's the shack consensus on Infinity? Briefly played it at Fan Expo and it seemed liek a scaled down version of Skylanders without the fun

        That's badly wrong. It's basically a FAR better game and piece of software than Skylanders ever was.

        It's pretty amazing. For my money, the Toy Box mode (alone) is a better type of Minecraft than Minecraft actually is....and the adventures and stuff are a blast.

        Good luck finding that Lightning McQueen Infinite figure at Toys-R-Us though...they're super hard to get from the sounds of it. :(
