Lego Worlds is an upcoming Lego sandbox game developed by Traveller's Tales and published by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment. The game allows players to build constructions in a 3D procedurally generated world. A beta version of the game was released on 1 June 2015 on Steam early access. It will be released on 24 February 2017 for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
Gameplay
Lego Worlds is a sandbox video game which allows player to build a world made up of Lego bricks.[1][2] The player is rewarded for collecting objects spread across the map with "studs", an in-game currency. The player can then build using the items they have encountered. Players can create their own world by using predefined Lego structures or using the "brick-by-brick editor tool". Players' appearances and outfits are also customizable in the game. Terrain and environment can be modified via landscaping tools. A variety of vehicles, such as helicopters, and creatures are also featured in the game. A multiplayer option and features for world-sharing are also set to be added to the game through later updates.[3]
Development
Prior to the game's official release, it was teased in the back of a Lego set's construction manual.[4] It was formally announced on 1 June 2015 with a simultaneous early access release on Steam to allow the gaming community to provide feedback for continual improvements and the integration of additional content over time.[5]
