Update: Revealed, Steam Early Access only right now – Rumor: LEGO Worlds in development
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 3 Comments
Update (6/1): LEGO Worlds has been revealed and released on Steam Early Access today. The full release is planned for 2016, and it’s currently unclear if there are plans for consoles down the line.
Could Warner Bros. be preparing yet another LEGO game? On the back of the instructions for the 60097 City Square set – due out next month – an image has been found that seems to tease something called “LEGO Worlds”.
Based on words included in the advert, it sounds like LEGO Worlds is Mincraft-inspired. Players will be able to “explore”, “discover”, and “create” within the game.
We don’t have an announcement from Warner Bros. at this time, but the image seems to be legitimate as far as I can tell. It also looks to be game-related given the inclusion of TT Games’ logo. All of the recent LEGO games have been on Nintendo platforms as of late, so hopefully this one is planned for Wii U.

An instruction booklet found on the official LEGO site provides a first look at a few packs planned for LEGO Dimensions.
The Simpsons, Portal 2, and Doctor Who will be available as Level Packs. Jurassic World and Scooby Doo are coming as Team Packs.
Warner Bros. still has yet to officially announce most of these products. When LEGO Dimensions was revealed, the company said that packs would ship to stores throughout 2015 and 2016.
Walmart lists new LEGO Dimensions packs – The Simpsons, Portal, and more
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 3 Comments
A couple of weeks ago, we heard rumblings about The Simpsons and Portal possibly coming to LEGO Dimensions in some fashion. Listings on Walmart have now made this practically official.
The Simpsons and Portal are being featured in LEGO Dimensions as new Level Packs. Walmart also reveals the existence of Jurassic World and Scooby Doo Team Packs, as well as a few Chima Fun Packs (Cragger, Eris, and Laval).
LEGO Dimensions arrives in late September. Warner Bros. will be making official announcements about the game leading up to launch.
Tentative LEGO Dimensions minifigures list
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 3 Comments
LEGO Dimensions players will be able to transport special figures into the game when it launches later this year. Thanks to a blurry box image, we know of a few characters that will be sold once LEGO Dimensions hits store shelves.
The image seems to show minifigures like Krusty, Superman, and Bart. It’s also thought that Chell from Portal will be featured. The extreme blurriness of the picture makes it difficult to make out some characters, but we should be seeing announcements from Warner Bros. at some point in the future.
