E3 has put out so many amazing bits of information. Some great new stuff from LEGO Dimensions was released and I had so little time to cover this yesterday. The game just expanding more and more and more. It is amazing. LEGO Dimensions just announced Portal 2 as part of the game plus The Simpsons and Jurassic World. Check out this new trailer now to get an idea of the coolness factor that has gotten amped up with LEGO Dimensions. Just Wow.

I’m not sure if I fully understand all of the ways in which this new LEGO toy pad can be used. It looks like there is a myriad of functionality to it that enhances the overall gameplay in a very significant way. You are going to have to be right there on top of things with this game because of all the crazy cool puzzle functions. This trailer makes me even more excited to get my hands on this game.

In addition to the new trailer I received a number of great screenshots of the game plus some shots of the new sets. I will post those below along with the official press release.

Oh and you can pre-order this great game on Amazon.com

LEGO Toy Pad for LEGO Dimensions Unites Physical and Digital Realms through Unparalleled Interactive Puzzle Play

Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment revealed today that the LEGO® Toy Pad, which comes with the LEGO® Dimensions™ Starter Pack, will be an interactive part of the LEGO Dimensions gameplay experience functioning as an additional game controller giving players a unique way to interact with the toys and game throughout the experience. The innovative LEGO Toy Pad – which allows any combination of seven characters, vehicles and gadgets to be simultaneously brought into the game at one time – features three distinct areas of RGB light technology that produce a broad array of colors to provide hints and puzzles for the player to solve.

In a new trailer giving the first glimpse of this functionality, GLaDOS (Genetic Lifeform and Disk Operating System), the fictional, artificially intelligent computer system and main antagonist in the Portal video game series, puts the heroes of LEGO Dimensions through multiple tests that can only be solved by using the LEGO Toy Pad.

In one example, SHIFT mode is activated when characters need to use colored vortexes in the game to avoid danger or traverse areas, the player must physically move the corresponding LEGO minifigure to the correctly colored light section that will enable them to transport the character to the vortex of their choice.

Using SCALE, players can shrink LEGO characters down to micro-size or up to super-size by physically placing the LEGO minifigure on a distinctly colored section of the LEGO Toy Pad. By scaling the character in this manner, the player will be able to access new areas and complete puzzles placed around the level.

Additional modes of the LEGO Toy Pad – CHROMA, ELEMENTAL, and LOCATE – offer further challenges that require a level of interaction between physical and digital play never before seen in the toys to life category.

Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment also revealed a Portal Level Pack with a LEGO Chell minifigure, a The Simpsons Level Pack with a LEGO Homer Simpson minifigure and The Simpsons Fun Packs with LEGO Bart Simpson and LEGO Krusty the Clown minifigures, plus a Jurassic World Team pack with LEGO Owen and LEGO ACU trooper minifigures.

Launching September 27, 2015, LEGO Dimensions will be available for Xbox One, the all-in one games and entertainment system from Microsoft and the Xbox 360 games and entertainment system from Microsoft, PlayStation4 and PlayStation3 computer entertainment systems and the Wii U system from Nintendo.
