June 29th, 2012 by Brad Ward
Funcom, the independent developer who is developing the Secret World MMO has just announced that they have signed a license with the LEGO Group to create a new LEGO MMO based on the massively popular Minifigures franchise. This obviously proves were never to old to play with lego’s. With the LEGO Minifigures MMO you’ll be able to expect a “oddball” in a gorilla suit, a Knight and even a firefighter. With how big the Minifigures franchise is you can expect there to be tons of different options in the game.
“The market for family-friendly online experiences intended for children and youngsters is brimming with potential,” says Funcom CEO Trond Arne Aas. “Being able to work with a world-renowned brand such as the LEGO® brand to develop an MMO for this audience is incredibly exciting to us as game developers and for Funcom as a company. This is source material we all know and love and we simply cannot wait to get started working with the LEGO Group on realizing this exciting project.”
The independent developer, Funcom, is set to release their other MMO, The Secret World, on July 3rd with having finished their final beta weekend this past week. Hopefully after that, we’ll be able to see a trailer for this LEGO Minifigures MMO in the next few months.
