    • LEGO Worlds - No More Content

      A new “service announcement” video has been released on the LEGO Worlds Youtube Channel and Twitter account announcing the “final collection EVER of LEGO Worlds content” (Showcase Collection Pack 2) is now free.
       
       
      One can draw the conclusion that this once amazing technical attempt to break into the sandbox builder genre alongside the likes of Minecraft has now reached its end-of-life period.
       
      Sadly, this does mean the once exciting prospect of survival mode has…. not survived. Locked in limbo since being placed on hold in 2018 while TT Games focused on “enhancing the LEGO Worlds experience in other areas." and will certainly be missed. The trailer for Survivor has also been hidden on the LEGO Worlds channel. To refresh your memory of something you won’t be seeing, check out the trailer:
       
       
      The good news is, unlike LEGO Universe you will still be able to play LEGO Worlds as no internet connection is required to continue playing, just don't expect any new content. It is not yet clear if or for how long TT Games will still be providing game support.
       
      Go grab your free content pack if you haven't already and remember the good times. Perhaps we will be able to see some new content being adding to the game by our resident modders in the near future!

    • LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga

      Well LEGO Star Wars has made a return to the video game world with a brand new collection of all 9 films to be released in 2020. The game was announced at the recent E3 2019, and will not only include levels from the more recent films but also the Prequel and Original trilogies.
       
      “LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga marks our return to the franchise that kicked off the LEGO video game series. The game will give fans an all-new LEGO Star Wars experience with complete freedom to explore the LEGO Star Wars galaxy,” said Tom Stone, TT Games managing director. “It was an absolute pleasure to be part of the launch of the original LEGO Star Wars game and it’s equally exciting to now move the series forward and help create a new era of LEGO Star Wars games.”
       
      The game will also feature the biggest amount of playable characters in a TT LEGO game to date!

    • Haunted House: A Monster Party opens at LEGOLAND Windsor Resort!

      This year saw LEGOLAND Windsor Resort open its newest addition to the park: The Haunted House: A Monster Party. A Vekoma mad house style ride where the room spins around you giving you the illusion that you're going upside down.
       
      LEGOLAND description:
       
      “Lord Vampyre invites you, and all the little monsters to The Haunted House Monster Party for the most fang-tastic ride EVER! Fun for the whole family, he is going to turn the house upside down!
       
      “MY NEW HOUSE
       
      “Lord Vampyre loves flying and being upside down like a bat – It’s the best bit of being a Vampire! Once you and your little monsters are seated at the grand banquet table the festivities can begin. He’s going to use a fang-tastic potion to turn the house upside down!
      “TOPSY-TURVY SEAL OF APPROVAL
      “Our brand-new ride has been given its official topsy-turvy “seal of approval” by Diversity stars Jordan Banjo and Perri Kiely!
       
      “JOIN THE PARTY
       
      “Get your best monster pose ready to meet Lord Vampyre!
       
      “Capture a photo of your little one pulling their best monster face and upload it via the form below. Lord Vampyre* will pick the spookiest monster faces to WIN!
       
      “We’re offering you the chance to win fang-tastic prizes and experiences all year. You only need to enter once to have a chance to win a prize!”
      I went on this ride a couple of days before it actually opened and I can honestly say I enjoyed it. It is like an actual disco in there and would highly recommend it to anyone.
