LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens - Some New Gameplay Features

Today we are talking about the LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens video game with some information on the evolution of the gameplay of the LEGO games which will benefit from this title expected at the end of next June.

The big novelty of the next LEGO game is the possibility of participating in air or space battles in open space. More than rail shooting 2D directed and scripted as in previous versions of LEGO video games declined from the Star Wars universe, it will be possible to shoot Tie Fighter in 3D.

Another novelty that should expand the usual mechanics of LEGO games a little: The possibility of building several different objects or elements with the same pile of parts. It will be possible to choose which of these "multi build"we want to assemble in priority according to the objectives to be fulfilled.

TT Games also promises battles with even more protagonists on screen, a temporary change of view, from third person to shoulder height view, during blaster combat phases, 18 levels: 11 based on the film and 7 completely new ones developed in partnership with Lucasfilm, 5 totally open spaces, around forty controllable vehicles and more than 200 playable characters.

In short, no major changes to the mechanics that made the success of LEGO video games, but some welcome changes to give a little tone to the whole.
