After a limited run as a free-to-play game on PC only, LEGO Minifigures Online will be fully released next week. Funcom announced today that LEGO Minifigures Online will be launching on June 29 for PC, Mac, Linux, iOS, and select Android devices.
Funcom has spent the last few months optimizing the game for these additional platforms. Features such as voice acting, storylines and cinematic cut scenes have been added to the game in order to allow users an optimal experience. The Android and iOS platforms will also blend seamlessly with the PC, providing useres with the same persisent online world across all platforms. Users will be able to play with their friends no matter what platform they are on. LEGO Minifigures Online will feature one, interconnected world that will see all users playing together.
In a press release sent out today, Funcom CEO Rui Casais stated:
"This really is the definitive version of LEGO Minifigures Online and we are very much looking forward to opening the servers for players to experience it. Not only will it feel like a fresh, new experience for those who have played the earlier free-to-play PC version, there is also so much potential unlocked now that gamers can play with each other across platforms on a broad range of devices. Maybe you are playing on an iPhone while your friend is on an Android tablet and your grandma is on a high-powered PC; you’ll still play together in the same world, along with thousands of other LEGO fans from all over the globe."
LEGO Minifigures Online will be priced at $29.99 on PC (via Steam), and will include all content. The iOS and Android versions will cost $4.99, but will only include the first world. Players on iOS devices will be able to purchase additional worlds starting June 29th, while Android users will be able to purchase more worlds later this summer.
