Lego Dimensions Confirms Midway Arcade License, Shows New Story Trailer
 |
LEGO Dimensions features an original story that combines characters and worlds from 14 of the most popular entertainment brands including DC Comics, The Lord of the Rings, The LEGO Movie, The Wizard of Oz, LEGO Ninjago, Back to the Future, Scooby-Doo, LEGO Chima, Doctor Who, Jurassic World, Ghostbusters, The Simpsons, Portal and Midway Arcade.
Oooh…so we won’t just be seeing Gandalf, Batman, Scooby-Doo and friends playing Portal, but maybe Joust, Defender, Tapper and Paperboy too? Great Scott!
Beyond that, the new trailer gives us a look at new villain Lord Vortech, who is stealing characters from various realities and apparently making Sauron look like a chump, Riddler riding a Balrog, Superman looking like he might go Man of Steel on the Emerald City (watch your neck, Wicked Witch!),and a Batman vs. Batman slap-fight.
I’m maybe thinking that the Scooby-Doo tie-in will lead to Lord Vortech having a true identity as someone we’ve already come across, but that’s just a hunch…
