Developer TT Games and publisher Warner Bros Interactive will be releasing a ton of expansion packs for its toy-video game hybrid LEGO Dimensions in the next year. They will include packs based on franchises like Harry Potter, Ghostbusters, Adventure Time, Knight Rider, The A-Team and many more. LEGO Dimensions is available for the Xbox One, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4 and Wii consoles.

Warner Bros. Interactive's press release says:

LEGO Dimensions packs based on 16 new entertainment properties will begin launching on September 27, 2016 with the Ghostbusters Story Pack, Adventure Time and Mission: Impossible Level Packs, Harry Potter and Adventure Time Team Packs, and The A-Team Fun Pack. Additional expansion packs based on other highly anticipated films Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them and The LEGO Batman Movie and wildly popular properties The Goonies, Sonic The Hedgehog, Teen Titans Go!, LEGO City Undercover, Knight Rider, The Powerpuff Girls, Gremlins, Beetlejuice and E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial will be released in product waves stretching into summer of next year. All expansion packs provide players with continued compatibility to use everything from waves 1-9 interchangeably, anywhere throughout the game. And no new starter pack is required, as all new packs will simply enhance the LEGO Dimensions Starter Pack game and work with the existing LEGO Toy Pad.

Some packs will support the new Battle Arenas feature, which will offer offline multiplayer split-screen features for up to four players:

LEGO minifigures included in the wave 6 through 9 expansion packs will come with special, golden Toy Tags which unlock a Battle Arena within the Free Play Adventure World of the corresponding entertainment brand. Each Battle Arena has four different gameplay modes and comes with its own traps, special powers and interactive environments that make every battle arena unique.

  • Not exactly my kind of game, but that trailer had me smiling the whole time.
  • hopefully it won't go the route of Infinity.   then again, I still have a bunch of Lego games to play with my daughter, which I've bought for $5 each  
  • Well good thing is its not directly associated with ttgames like their mmo
  • If you pick "The A-Team", do your bullets hit anything?  Does Murdock try to get B.A. to fly?  Does Faceman get some hot chicks and a Corvette?  Does Hannibal smoke a cigar and save the town?  DO THEY BUILD A RIDICULOUS CONTRAPTION IN A GARAGE??  I must know!!!
  • Does KITT have turbo boost, ski mode, ejection seat, super pursuit mode, and a laser?
  • The problem with Lego Dimensions is that it's like every other Lego game except you have to pay for the characters instead of unlocking them. I'll stick with Lego Batman 3, Lego Avengers, etc., thanks.
  • Ah, but you get mini figs too! Posted via my MotoE2
  • Well theres always Legends of Chima Online & Lego Minifigures Online
  • I though the same, I have all of the lego games except the indiana jones and batman, this Dimensions looks just like them, can't find any compeling reason to get it...  is it really worth it? Infinity had a good idea, but implemente poorly
