More Characters and More Ways to Play
The LEGO Dimensions team has been giving hints about this new content over the week. With nods to both Harry Potter and Gremlins in their teases we finally got our full look at everything included with this new trailer! There's a lot of stuff jammed into this upcoming wave of content including levels based around the Ghostbusters reboot and Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. Not only that but we can also look forward to a new mode in the Ghostbusters update called "Rip." "Rip" will allow players to tear open a hole in the game's universe and go into an alternate universe to solve puzzles to play through the game!
This year 2 content also includes new "Battle Arenas." These are new competitive multiplayer game modes which feature split-screen gameplay against your friends! Each of the mini figures that will be released soon come with a special golden ticket, this ticket allows you to unlock new "Battle Arenas" based on that character's world. All of the unlockable Battle Arenas come with four different gameplay modes, their own traps, special powers, and interactive environments to make every battle arena unique.
