This is huge news for fans of the game, which is currently available on Steam Early Access. "LEGO Worlds" is still slated to launch on PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One next month.
The game was initially teased at the back of a LEGO set's construction manual, and was formally announced on June 1, 2015 alongside an early access release on Steam.
According to IGN Southeast Asia, the game itself offers players the opportunity to create their own worlds using the lovable toys. This is akin to "Minecraft," only this time players may actually get to play with other LEGO "personalities" who were also featured in their own games.
The sandbox video games allow players to build their own worlds and be rewarded for collecting objects across the map. They are given in-game currency called "studs."
Players will be able to build various objects and machinations using the parts they have gathered. They can even use pre-defined LEGO structures to make their own buildings or use a "brick-by-brick" tool. The game also features its own vehicles and creatures. Options like multiplayer and world-sharing will be added through later updates.
