Travellers Tales have come out with their latest addition in their established Lego franchise. No it’s NOT Harry Potter, OR Lord of the Rings. No, it’s LEGO Battles.
Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and TT Games are teaming up with The LEGO Group to deliver LEGO Battles for Nintendo DS, a videogame based on classic play scenarios in evergreen themes that include LEGO Castle, LEGO Pirates and LEGO Space.
Yeah, the next game is a DS exclusive. Interesting decision and sounds to me like filler until the next ACTUAL release in the LEGO series. Hopefully it will be better than LEGO: Batman. Not too hard though I guess.
LEGO Battles offers a new kind of “build and battle†LEGO gameplay. Through six distinct story lines, players build their own LEGO bases and battle teams as they engage in over 70 different levels, mixing and matching units to create the ultimate customized LEGO squad. These unique LEGO battles teams see pirate swordsmen fighting side-by-side with wizards and aliens; dragons battling ninjas; and pirate ships launching broadsides against spacecraft and knights! Players can also challenge friends on the battlefield in multiplayer mode through wireless DS multi-card play.
It doesn’t actually sound as terrible as I first thought. Kind of like a strategy / action game. With LEGO. And Dragons fighting ninjas. And pirate ships firing cannonballs at spaceships. This game sounds like it should be played whilst smoking something illegal. *Monstervine does not advocate the using of drugs in any way shape or form, but it DOES endorse Ninjas and spaceships.*
