A couple of days ago, Paperballpark over on the Brickset forums provided some minor details about some upcoming LEGO Dimensions expansion packs. Currently there are only placeholder initials but there have been guesses already of what the packs could be.
LEGO Dimensions has released a new video featuring some of the voice actors that will be portraying their characters in the upcoming video game. Joel McHale is X-PO, the game’s robot guide and the talented Gary Oldman is Lord Vortech who is the villain of the game.
Michael J. Fox and Christopher Lloyd will be returning to voice Marty McFly and Doc Brown, respectively, from the Back to the Future trilogy.
From The LEGO Movie, a few familiar characters are returning with Chris Pratt being Emmet, Elizabeth Banks as Wyldsty,e Alison Brie as Unikitty, and Charlie Day as Benny.
Chris Pratt is also Owen Grady from Jurassic World along with Irrfan Khan as Simon Masrani.
From the highly anticipated Doctor Who series, Peter Capaldi is the Twelfth Doctor, Jenna Coleman is Clara Oswald, and Michelle Gomez is Missy.
From the Portal series, Stephen Merchant returns as Wheatley as well as Ellen McLain as GLaDOS.
Finally from DC Comics Super Heroes, Troy Baker is Batman and Tara Strong is Harley Quinn.
Of course these are just some of the voice actors listed in the video description but if you want to check out a bigger list of the actors, head on over to IMDB. LEGO Dimensions will be available in two weeks on September 27.
As we’ve already seen before, there are a lot of minifigures and builds for the upcoming LEGO Dimensions video game. The folks over at Hoth Bricks has found the first accessory to be associated with the Dimensions. Over on Amazon UK, there is an accessory called a Gaming Capsule which is able to store game units as well as being able to fit the minifigures and builds for the expansions packs. I’m not sure at this time if the LEGO Dimensions Gaming Capsule is a European item or if it’ll be available here in the US as well. It is currently out of stock on Amazon UK but you can still order it and it’ll be delivered when it is available.
Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment has released a new press release with more information about the LEGO Dimensions Midway Arcade Gamer Level Pack (71235). The level pack will include various classic Midway Arcade games like Super Sprint, Gauntlet, Defender, and Robotron just to name a few. There are more than 20 different arcade games to beat while in LEGO Dimensions. Check out the full press release below as well as new images of the game.
Explore The Simpsons and Midway Arcade In LEGO® Dimensions
Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment today revealed screenshots showcasing The Simpsons and Midway Arcade gameplay for LEGO Dimensions, the upcoming entertainment experience that merges physical LEGO brick building with interactive console gameplay. Both The Simpsons and Midway Arcade levels are part of the LEGO Dimensions main game that can be played through in the Starter Pack.
The Simpsons Level within the LEGO Dimensions Starter Pack incorporates a cel-shaded art style, for a look that is true to the original, animated series and unique from the other levels within the game. Players will face an unlikely pair of evil masterminds in The Simpsons Level – Lord Business and The Joker – who have joined Lord Vortech’s legion of villains and invaded Springfield. It is up to our heroes to defeat them and restore order in The Simpsons world. For fans of The Simpsons that want to customise their LEGO Dimensions experience, a The Simpsons Level Pack which includes a LEGO Homer Simpson minifigure and The Simpsons Fun Packs which include a LEGO Bart Simpson minifigure
The LEGO Dimensions Facebook Page has posted a handy little infographic guide for all of the different expansion packs and the minifigures that will be available for the upcoming video game. There will be five different waves of various Level Packs, Team Packs, and Fun Packs being released on different dates.
GameStop has revealed the release date of the upcoming LEGO Marvel Avengers video game as January 26, 2016. Before this announcement, we’ve only been hearing from TT Games Game Director Arthur Parsons that the game would be coming in the fall but that general release timetable was changed after Gamescom when it was said to be pushed back to 2016.
When you pre-order LEGO Marvel’s Avengers from GameStop, you will also get the exclusive LEGO Silver Centurion Mark XXXIII Iron Man minifigure as a bonus.
FamilyGamerTV has released a new LEGO Dimensions trailer featuring a Scooby-Doo retro-style cartoon. The trailer also shows off some of the gameplay from the Scooby-Doo Team Pack (71206) and scenes from other expansion packs.
For Scooby-Doo fans that want to customize their LEGO Dimensions experience, it was also announced that a Scooby-Doo Team Pack which includes LEGO Scooby-Doo and LEGO Shaggy minifigures, plus a LEGO Mystery Machine and LEGO Scooby Snack, will be available at the launch of the Starter Pack.
Scooby-Doo and Shaggy each have their own abilities and the Mystery Machine and Scooby Snack can be physically built and then rebuilt twice for a total of three different objects that do entirely different things in the digital game for massive variety. Either character can also unlock the Scooby-Doo Adventure World, an open-world environment which provides additional open world gameplay content separate from the game’s main story which allows players to explore iconic Scooby-Doo locations, race, solve puzzles, and more.
