Lego Universe game makes worldwide debut



THE Lego Universe computer game has been released worldwide, concluding a seven-month testing phase that had drafted in members of the public to try it out in a pre-release version.

Lego Universe allows players to trot through challenges with customised characters, creating buildings out of the Lego pieces they rescue, linking up with others for team games, and exploring various worlds that are in need of a fresh burst of imagination and creativity.

The game is a family-friendly take on the Massively Multiplayer Online (MMO) genre, populated by titles such as Guild Wars, MapleStory, EVE Online, and of course the famous World of Warcraft.

Previously franchised Lego games majored on the toy line's film licences, with Star Wars, Batman, Indiana Jones and Harry Potter finding themselves appearing on screen in brick form.

Lego Universe is available on both PC and Mac. Like many MMO games it uses a subscription model, in which the first 30 days after installation are free, with subsequent batches of 30 costing US$10 (RM31). - Relaxnews 2010
