Today Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, The LEGO Group, and TT Games announced the latest LEGO game: Legends of Chima –Laval’s Journey will make its way to the Nintendo 3DS and PlayStation Vita handheld systems in Europe on 21st June. A DS version will follow this Autumn, as will a free-to-play online world, LEGO Legends of Chima Online.
There seems to be also TV and product tie-in to the new LEGO Legends of Chima. The television show is described as an “action packed world ruled by eight animal tribes that tells the classic story of good and evil, friendship and family”.
“Kids will have a great time embarking on new adventures, living out a fantasy of traveling to captivating worlds and discovering new things,” said Tom Stone, Marketing Director, TT Games Publishing. “LEGO Legends of Chima: Laval’s Journey offers an entirely new and exciting virtual playground for kids to explore, build, solve puzzles, all the while playing as their favorite Legends of Chima characters.”
Wow, they weren’t kidding about the product tie-in…
In the new LEGO game players embark on an epic adventure with Laval, a warrior from the Lion Tribe, who races to unlock the secret of the legendary triple-chi armor before his arch rival Cragger, the Crocodile King, harnesses its power to destroy Chima.
As you can see from the trailer it’s a bit hack and slash with players fighting through 15 levels of intense action and gameplay. There are also vast areas to explore, hidden collectables to find, and over 60 characters to unlock.
What’s more, players can earn points in LEGO: Legends of Chima: Laval’s Journey that can be redeemed at the Chima Vault, which houses an exclusive reward system.
…really really not kidding about the product tie-in.
