As first reported by IGN, the original Toy Story 3 video game will be removed from the digital Xbox store starting September 29, 2026. This decision comes just weeks before the release of the anticipated remaster, Toy Story 3: Complete Edition, scheduled for October 15, 2026.
The digital store page for the 2010 title has been updated to reflect this change, confirming that the game will no longer be available for purchase at its current price of $9.99 on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S. However, players who have already purchased Toy Story 3 will still retain access to the game after the delisting date.
The timing of this delisting aligns with the upcoming remaster, which aims to bring the classic Pixar adventure to modern platforms. Toy Story 3: Complete Edition promises significant enhancements, including upgraded graphics, improved resolution, and a boosted framerate. Additionally, players can expect some content that was previously exclusive to certain platforms.
The announcement on the Xbox store page stated, “Starting on September 29, 2026, Toy Story 3 will no longer be available for purchase. Players who have purchased Toy Story 3 will still be able to access the game after this date. Toy Story 3: The Complete Edition will be released on October 15th, 2026, on Xbox Series X|S, and will include all of the features in the original game with updated graphics and additional new features.”
The original Toy Story 3 was developed by Avalanche Software and published by Disney Interactive Studios. The upcoming remaster is part of a broader initiative by Disney, Atari, and Digital Eclipse, which has been dubbed Toy Story: Retro Roundup. This initiative is set to reintroduce several Toy Story titles, providing both nostalgic and new players with refreshed experiences.
As the release date approaches, fans of the original game may want to consider purchasing it before the delisting takes effect. For others, the Complete Edition appears to be an enticing option that guarantees an updated take on the beloved classic, enhanced for contemporary gaming systems.
