'LEGO DC Super-Villains' (ALL) Shows Off Character Creator Feature - Trailer

by Rainier on July 19, 2018 @ 2:07 p.m. PDT

Embark on an all-new LEGO adventure by becoming the best villain the universe has seen in LEGO DC Super-Villains.

LEGO DC Super-Villains, the first LEGO game to put players at the center of a villain-centric adventure packed with favorite locations and characters from across the DC universe.  For the first time, a LEGO game is giving players the ability to create and play as their own DC Super-Villain throughout the game. Their character becomes the center of the story, while teaming up with an iconic variety of villains to adventure through the hilarious and original story written in collaboration with DC.

In LEGO DC Super-Villains, the Justice League has disappeared, leaving Earth’s protection to a newcomer group of heroes from a parallel universe, proclaiming themselves as the ‘Justice Syndicate’. Renowned DC Super-Villains from the ‘Legion Of Doom’ discover Earth’s newest heroes may not be the heroes they claim to be. With each player’s completely customizable Super-Villain character in command, this team of misfit lawbreakers must join forces to discover and foil the evil plans the incognito strangers have in store.

At the beginning of the campaign, players can create their own unique villain and main character throughout, while also teaming up with a variety of LEGO DC Super-Villains throughout the story mode. As players progress, they will unlock new abilities, powers and can continue to customize their character to take on the evil threat. Friends and family can join story mode at any time with the fun, two-player, local co-op experiences where players can team up in epic boss fights.

The trailer focuses on the character creator feature and provides players with an extended look at how they can create and play as their own DC Super-Villain character, unleashing mischievous antics and wreaking havoc throughout the action-packed game. A player’s character becomes the center of the story, while teaming up with an iconic variety of villains to adventure through the hilarious and original story written in collaboration with DC Comics.

Fans interested in checking out the character creator feature will have an opportunity this weekend at San Diego Comic-Con, where a hands-on demo of the game will be playable at the LEGO booth (#2829), DC Comics booth (#1915) and the Warner Bros. Booth (#4545) during normal show hours.

Additionally, the team behind LEGO DC Super-Villains, including Arthur Parsons (head of design, TT Games) and Ames Kirshen (VP, Interactive & Animation, DC Entertainment), and voice actors Kevin Conroy (Batman), Tara Strong (Harley Quinn), Julie Nathanson (Silver Banshee) and Fred Tatasciore (Solomon Grundy, Clayface, Black Adam, Killer Croc), will give Comic-Con attendees an inside look at the first LEGO game to put players at the center of a villain-centric adventure packed with favorite locations and characters from across the DC Universe on Friday, July 20 at 2:15pm in Room 6A. This celebration of villainy will provide fans with exciting character reveals and details about the story.

A Deluxe Edition of the game, featuring the main game content, Season Pass content and early access to the DC Super-Villains: TV Series DLC Character Pack, is now available for pre-order.  An exclusive LEGO minifigure, Lex Luthor Superman, also comes with the physical version of the Deluxe Edition, while digital consumers will receive the Justice League Dark DLC Character Pack with their Deluxe Edition.

LEGO DC Super-Villains will be available October 16, 2018 for PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC.
