The official announcement trailer for LEGO The Hobbit has now been released by Warner Bros. Gone are the LEGO Star Wars days of having no dialogue as they use the real actors’ performances.
Of course it’s full of the typical LEGO Traveller’s Tale humour with it rated PEGI 7. LEGO The Hobbit covers both of the first two films in The Hobbit trilogy. It’s out next year.
”Players will follow Bilbo Baggins as he is recruited by the Wizard Gandalf to aid Thorin Oakenshield and his Company of Dwarves. Bilbo leaves the comforts of the Shire on a journey through Middle-earth to help the Dwarves reclaim their lost Kingdom of Erebor within the Lonely Mountain. Along the way, he is introduced to ravenous Trolls, dangerous Orcs and, of course, Gollum and his precious Ring. Players will utilize and combine the Dwarves’ unique abilities – often with hilarious results – to solve the most diverse Quests of any LEGO videogame to date.”
LEGO The Hobbit releases on PC, Xbox 360, PS3, PS Vita, Xbox One, PS4, Wii U and 3DS in 2014.
