During its Early Access phase, Disney Speedstorm will offer both single-player and multiplayer local and online modes, leaderboards, an in-game shop, and much more.

More competitive players can jump into Disney Speedstorm’s multiplayer modes, which include Local Freeplay, Private Track, Ranked Multiplayer with leaderboards and Regulated Multiplayer - a race mode that allows players to race head-to-head on an even playing field.

*The Golden Pass is a season-based mission system inspired by the idea of a “Battle Pass” used to reward players for completing various missions and tasks during an in-game season. Every Disney Speedstorm Season will have its own Golden Pass that is the main source of rewards while that Season is active. Golden Pass Credits can be used by players to unlock the premium tier of the Golden Pass that grants access to an extra layer of Seasonal rewards like liveries, suits, currencies, racers, and much more. During Early Access, new themed Seasons, each with a free and premium tier of rewards, will be added to the game every 6-8 weeks bringing new Disney and Pixar-related content like racers, unique tracks, and challenges.
