People have been begging, literally begging for an open world LEGO game since forever and that pleading only grew louder when Minecraft came on the scene. What makes LEGO so different from Minecraft? I mean hell there’s a LEGO Minecraft set so in my mind it’s the originator of imaginative play. Now TT Games has launched LEGO Worlds on Steam Early Access and it’s blowing up! There’s so many questions and requests for new features it’s staggering. Sadly I think people want LEGO Worlds to be their perfect LEGO video game and I don’t they can please everyone. But since the feedback from the LEGO and video game community is so overwhelming I would be shocked if they totally screw this one up, they have to at least hit 75% of what everyone wants as long as they set their sights high enough. The best part however is that just like LEGO’s you can get in right now and build, play and imagine only know you can give your creative feedback directly to the fine folks over at TT Games and just maybe help shape the game into something super amazing. LEGO Worlds is currently $14.99 for PC on Steam Early Access, no word on any kind of console release and like every recent LEGO game I can think of this one is sadly single player only.
