Lego's 'Minecraft' competitor is real and ready to download

4.6
Yes, those rumors of Lego building a direct competitor to Minecraft were true: meet Lego Worlds. The sandbox game has launched on Windows through Steam's Early Access program for $17, and promises to do more than just let you sculpt buildings and fight off critters. You can alter the terrain on a large scale, and access ready-made drivable vehicles (including dragons) to get around the procedurally generated landscape. Not too surprisingly, there's also a big tie-in with Lego's real-world plastic bricks. You can play using a handful of old-school and current Lego sets, and more are promised down the road. Don't be surprised if you're eventually buying digital blocks at the same time as their physical counterparts arrive.

Yin I tried Minecraft. It was pretty meh. This looks really enjoyable though. I wonder if it will ever come to consoles and include multiplayer. I heard on Twitter from someone that isn't the case at the moment (about multiplayer.)


Minecraft is on consoles and has been for a while.. And it includes multiplayer


I feel like this will just never be able to pass Minecraft because it's been around for so long. Just like games trying to compete with CoD.

I know, which is why I want this game to be on consoles and have multiplayer like Minecraft. It could potentially compete with Minecraft, and there is a bigger chance I would play this.

Hopefully it doesn't have as many issues that Minecraft had when it launched.
