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.

tbh I'm interested to see what they will do with this; it sounds good. It doesn't have to be good to compete with Minecraft though

THQPosted:

Wouldn't be surprised if Microsoft ends up buying this and merges it with mine craft down the road

This wont do as well as everyone is hoping imo.

This looks like it could actually be good.

Lego fans will probably enjoy, but I don't really see it selling that well otherwise.

Actually looks pretty good, might get it after it is released seeing some more gameplay of it.

SkittlePosted:

I think this will actually be really fun and different, but I see this and Minecraft as different games that you can't really compare.

MickersPosted:

This actually looks quite good. Will have to look out for how this does.

MissPosted:

Wonder if this will actually go anywhere with Mojang or, whoever owns it now, having such a tight grip on the audience already. Guess we'll wait and see.

Tbh dont think this will sell that much ;/
