Morning all,

Due to popular demand, Sandbox Mode now has everything unlocked by default. So that means creatures like the Dragons and T-Rex can be placed in Sandbox Worlds with wild abandon! The same goes for special characters such as the Minotaur and the Cyclops.

Character customisation is also fully unlocked in this mode, so enjoy making loads of whacky characters to play as.

Oh, and a bunch of bug fixes that we've toiled away at.

Many thanks!
Chris

Hi everyone!

Before we go any further, we would like to take this opportunity to thank those who post their opinions and share their thoughts on Worlds so far, on what they both like and dislike. As avid gamers ourselves we keep an eye on all formats of feedback from video reviews to popular forum websites, and this both helps and informs us as they are very valuable forms of feedback. We are always aiming to improve Worlds as an experience. This leads us into our next point, and to talk about the upcoming patch.

The next big patch after this one, is very much a quality of life patch and should be addressing a number of issues that we have collated and addressed as being of high importance tweaks or features. As a game that’s based on LEGO building as its core, we have spent our time this patch on improving the building tools by tweaking their functionality and adding features to improve and enhance players ability to be creative with LEGO. We have also looked into many bug fixes and we are constantly looking into improving performance and stability on all formats moving forward.

To us, Worlds is a living breathing project and one that, although isn’t counted as being in early access anymore, is one that we believe can be enhanced each time we create a big patch. Each big title update will often have a goal, this one was to enhance and improve the building experience and tools used to build, the next big patch will have a different function (Not telling ). In the coming weeks, we will be releasing the patch on all formats and an accompanying video created by the very talented Bear Parker to show off everything new, and to showcase the patch on our social media outlets. We look forward to you guys getting your hands on it and more importantly await the community’s feedback.

So without further ado, let’s see what is coming up for Worlds in Title Update 3!

---

The Planner Tool

Introducing the Planner, a tool designed to build a house rapidly and with ease! Use the various materials and pre-built wall types to get your new house/town/city underway! You can find the Planner Tool underneath the Build Tool sub-menu options.


Wall Building

Another update to the Build tool! Instead of just tapping the button to place it, you can now hold the placement button to draw in an entire wall.

Discoveries Grid changes

After many content updates, DLC and Showcase Content, we’ve come to the conclusion that the Discovery Menu is no longer fulfilling its purpose. As a result, we’ve now added a tabbed system to make it much cleaner to find what you’re looking for, including the addition of Categories to help narrow down exactly what you’re after. Oh, and to make things even simpler, we’ve added a search function so you can really narrow down the ever-expanding list of Discoveries. And check out the Silhouettes to the grids so you can see exactly how much you’re missing!
Additionally, you can now delete Custom Characters and Custom LXFMLs too! Sorry that took a while!


Camera Car

Ever dreamed of being a Movie Director? Perhaps a YouTube personality? Maybe you just love the idea of taking some lovely wallpaper worthy screenshots? Well we have the car for you! A vehicle that can be utilised by either one player or two, providing you with all you need to set some epic action sequences, or possibly re-create that documentary you watched.


Waypoints

We’ve slightly updated the waypoints. Instead of them scattering around everywhere, they’re much more localised to the area you operate in, and have clearer indications of exactly what they point to.


Galaxy Map

We’ve slightly tweaked the Galaxy Map again too! We put the options behind a slider (cleverly disguised as PUG-Z) and made it all just a little tidier. Also, instead of a white 2D rocket, a micro-build of PUG-Z flies around the planet you are now on. Much nicer.


New Landscape Tool shapes

We’ve added a few new shapes to the Landscape tools, to further improve just how you edit your Worlds! Press the ‘Shape’ button while you have a Landscape tool open to see all the new options you have at hand!


Copy Tool

We’ve made an alteration to how the Copy Tool functions on Controller. You can still choose an exact size, but we’ve also added a nice and simple ‘Hold to expand’ option instead of opening up the box with multiple options.

---

OK, so that covers the major features, and with Monsters on the way, you should be kept busy until we roll out the final update of 2017 and run headfirst into 2018. Oh and for 2018, let us tell you, that will be well worth keeping an eye on. A few features that have been discussed before will finally live….LIVE WE SAY!!!

The LEGO Worlds Team

Hi folks,

Been a while since we spoke. We've been busy getting the Switch version out there and now are back on the track of version parity once again. We've got an update due soon for the next DLC, but it'll also include some changes to the main game as part of an update too.

These include a new tool we're calling the Planner, which auto-builds houses in quick time for you. And a much needed update to the Discovery Tool menus, to allow for quicker and easier navigation. This will also include adding Silhouettes to stuff you don't yet have (we finally changed our minds on that one).

There's also the Monsters DLC pack as mentioned previously, which will see new quests, characters etc, and we'll be adding achievements to that and retroactively adding them to Classic Space too.


Then, in 2018, we have A LOAD of new stuff new planned (free and paid). We'll share more on those soon, including what's going on with Survivor.


Thanks,
Chris

It’s time to make space, literally! The Classic Space pack has finally arrived for LEGO Worlds and it’s packed with an assortment of plastic perfection for you to explore, discover and create. Whether you want to zip around in style in a moon buggy, fly through the atmosphere in a rather epic Space Cruiser or hunt down an alien there’s plenty to play with.

There’s so much to peruse and play with we’ve rustled up this video to give you a better idea of what to expect!

Hello heroes!

The TT team has been busying away on a whole host of extra goodies to make your LEGO® Worlds experience even more fun. Starting today you’ll see a plethora of particularly impressive bits and pieces so without a further ado…

NEXO KNIGHTS

The legendary NEXO KNIGHTS™ have arrived in LEGO® Worlds alongside a suite of creatures, vehicles, props, items and of course the heroes themselves; Clay, Macy, Lance, Aaron and Axl. Not only that, but on the main menu (aka the Brick Build Showcase) you’ll be able to download the magnificent Knighton Keep, with the rest of the castle pieces to follow every day for the rest of this week. Be sure to take the especially epic vehicles for a spin and test out the NEXO KNIGHTS™ special powers!

Who better to test those special powers on than the enemy itself? That’s right, Ruina, Jestro and an assortment of gruesome goons are also available. That’s enough wordy waffle for now though, let’s see it all in action!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5FgDrIIsi1w

There’s plenty more content coming to LEGO® Worlds in the near future which we can’t wait to share with you. For now, boot up the game and check back regularly for more new Brick Builds. Oh, and be sure to share your brilliant builds with us on your social network of choice – just tag it #LEGOWorlds.

For now, happy adventuring LEGO fans!
The LEGO Worlds Team

Hi everyone!

We’re pleased to announce that Title Update 1 for LEGO® Worlds is now live! This update has added a few heavily requested features, as well as adding additional content and lots of new tweaks that we have made as well!

SANDBOX MODE
We’ve added 'Sandbox Mode’! This is a fully creative building experience for LEGO Worlds: you’ll have all of the tools, objects and bricks unlocked from the start. Let your imagination run wild!

We’ve kept some of the rarest, harder to find creatures locked until they’re found in Adventure Mode.

This mode will also skip our tutorial worlds, so we recommend that beginner players try Adventure mode first in order to get to grips with the tools.

LEGO NEXO KNIGHTS AND LEGO CITY EMERGENCY CONTENT
Keep an eye out for new models in the Brick Build Showcase. These will be updated regularly and will not only be brick built models but will often include new characters, creatures, vehicles, props and items from the LEGO Nexo Knight and LEGO City Emergency themes, with other themes to follow. Don’t forget to add them to your collections!

UI ALTERATIONS

Hi all,

The Crash that was introduced by yesterdays Patch (Completing quests that resulted in the player being awarded an LXFML or Item) has been resolved and is now live. We have also updated a quest we discovered had an issue during test as well (Dino Tracker Protection Quest against the Coelophysis)

Regards,
Chris

Hi all,

A new patch resolving multiple crashes and Save Data loss from entering Online games is now live.

Please continue to share any issues you have in our Bug Reporting forum, as our QA team are diligently reading through them to make sure we're aware of everything.

And those players who were missing the Early Access item (the Tt Games cap) and Soundtrack should also now see it appearing correctly (this applies to anyone who bought the game during the E3 BOGO deal). If it is still missing from your games install directory, then please let me know in this thread and I will investigate further:
