Built on the first two 'Hobbit' movies.
Just as the new movie has filled movie theaters, Warner Brothers elected to share the first trailer for the 'Lego The Hobbit,' the upcoming Lego video game based on the first two 'Hobbit' films. As we the 'Lego Lord of the Rings' game, 'Lego the Hobbit' will make full use of the films music and recorded dialogue, giving the game a nearly unrivaled level of production quality.
From Warner Brothers, "LEGO The Hobbit sends players of all ages on an unforgettable interactive journey through the first two films in The Hobbit Trilogy, The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey and the upcoming The Hobbit: Desolation of Smaug. 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' is tracking for a Spring 2014 release for the Xbox One, PS4, Xbox 360, PS3, Wii U, PC, 3DS, and PS Vita.
