Unlocking characters in LEGO games such as LEGO The Hobbit is one of the most time consuming elements, so how about some DLC that will unlock new characters for you by just paying for the privilege? Not so sure myself, but check out the three new pieces of DLC anyway.
LEGO game launches are becoming more regular than the seasons themselves. The LEGO Movie Videogame has only been out for a few weeks, but hot on its tail is LEGO The Hobbit, out now on most platforms you would wish to think about. Almost by coincidence a launch trailer for the game has also been released.
Not a whole lot coming this week, but a movie tie-in that is tying in with the DVD and Blu-Ray release is on the fore front and a release of a console title on Steam. Of note, Broforce is out on early access on Steam too - but we won't count that as an official release...yet.
We all know what LEGO The Hobbit game is about. It is based on the popular fantasy films which themselves are based on the book. Kind of highbrow elves and dwarves and stuff. However, the new trailer for the game wants you look at things in a different more Ocean's Eleven style.
The LEGO games have glommed onto a number of big-name franchises over the past decade, including The Lord of the Rings. A release for The Hobbit was basically a "no duh" thing, but the game missed an opportunity for a simultaneous launch with the second movie. Now, the official release date has finally been set for LEGO The Hobbit: April 8th in North America and April 11th in Europe.
LEGO The Hobbit is trying to include even more aspects of playing with the real-life LEGO play sets than ever before. Gamers will soon find themselves having to interact with a virtual set of the mega popular toy line within a brand new, in-game feature.
Just in time for the release of the second film in the series, LEGO The Hobbit finally has a trailer. The full game won't see the light of day until next Spring, but they want you to go ahead and get pumped for their upcoming title. If you've seen the first movie (or the second one, I guess) you'll recognize some scenes recreated with syrupy-sweet Lego charm. Shocker: It looks a whole lot like a Lego game. Check it out.
Following the LEGO Lord of the Rings game, Warner Bros. Interactive announced their latest game based on the Tolkien classic, LEGO The Hobbit. Will it take us to fantastic co-op gameplay and back again?
