The Toy Story Retro Roundup physical edition is released as a combined two-in-one double pack alongside Toy Story 3 Complete Edition. Published by Atari and developed by Digital Eclipse, physical copies launch on October 15, 2026, for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and Nintendo Switch 2.
Unlike the digital releases—which are sold as two standalone titles for $24.99 each—the physical release packages both the retro compilation and the remastered 2010 adventure on a single cartridge or disc.

Physical vs. Digital Breakdown
The release strategy differs substantially between physical collectors and digital buyers.
| Feature | Physical Edition | Digital Editions |
|---|---|---|
| Availability | PS4, PS5, Switch, Switch 2 | PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Switch, Switch 2 |
| Packaging | Single double-pack bundle | Sold as two separate digital purchases |
| Total Cost | $39.99 ($49.99 on Switch 2) | $24.99 per title |
| Included Games | Retro Roundup + Toy Story 3 | Must buy each release individually |
Buying the physical double pack on PS4, PS5, or the original Nintendo Switch saves roughly $10 compared to purchasing both games separately on digital store fronts. On Xbox and PC, players must buy the titles digitally through their respective platform stores.
