Cars 2: Double Mission was a web game published by “The Walt Disney Company Italia Srl” around 2011, featuring racing elements and various mechanics. The game was primarily available in Italy and Spain.
Avatar customization
Users could customize their car avatar from two options: 'Speed' or 'Espionage'. The avatar's appearance differed based on the selection, resembling the design from “The World of Cars Online,” albeit in 2D. Players had a wide array of cosmetic elements to choose from, including tires, spoilers, Piston Cup and WGP decals, paint schemes, and TROC elements like the silver paint scheme. For 'Speed' avatars, a racing number could be chosen. Luigi provided tips during the customization process, serving as a character design and tutorial assistant.
Racing Mechanics
Players could select from various tracks to race on, including locations such as Italy (Porto Corsa and Uncle Topolino village), Japan (Tokyo Track and Airport), Paris, Iceland, Spain, Germany, and England.
Showroom
Players had the opportunity to view avatars created by other players and vote for their favorites. They could assign ratings ranging from one star (minimum) to five stars (maximum) to express their preferences.
Music
The game featured tracks from the Cars 2 soundtrack, including “You Might Think” and “Collision of Worlds”.
Codes
Exclusive power-ups and accessories could be obtained through Cars merchandise and official Mickey Mouse and Cars magazines. These items came with special codes that could be redeemed on the website.
Contest
Between October 3, 2011, and October 23, 2011, users could customize a car and participate in a competition. The drawing took place on October 26, 2011, in Milan, with all valid participants eligible, regardless of the number of votes received for their customized car. Participants could enter the draw once or twice, depending on whether they customized one or two cars (choosing the "Race" and "Spy" modes).
Closure
The game lasted for approximately seven years, from 2011 to 2018. However, it was mostly available until 2017 coinciding with the launch of the new Cars 3 website.
