We're still very early into this merger and any news of cancellations, layoffs or closures are likely to be weeks if not months away, though I am hopeful about TT Games' future following the success of LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight.

So far, there's been very little news on the gaming side of both companies, but we do know that Warner Bros. Games, owner and publisher of LEGO game developer TT Games, will be merging with Paramount Games Studio.

It's official: Warner Bros. Discovery and Paramount are merging into a single entity named "Skydance".

Two new LEGO Batman sets have been announced to be coming next year that feature tie-in rewards for LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight: the Batman Returns and Arkham Batmobiles, both of which unlock the Golden Red Brick in-game!

To celebrate the arrival of Batman in LEGO Fortnite Odyssey, the LEGO Group sent me everything I need to save Gotham City: a newspaper, a pen and... my very own Batmobile? Watch it here: youtu.be/rAE8kSjnaKA

However, when the game launched on other consoles a little over four years later, these were all removed except for the Nintendo Switch version. But, now, with the help of a mod, these easter eggs can be added back to the PC version. Watch it here: youtu.be/oOg211DHgEc

Did you know that not all versions of LEGO City Undercover are the same? Originally, the game was an exclusive for the Nintendo Wii U. Because of this, it was filled with tons of easter eggs and references to various Nintendo franchises.

Several activities were planned, though some ended up being cut to not bloat the game, like house customization and dog training. 13 years later, the LEGO Friends theme would launch with its own game also titled "LEGO Friends", though it's unknown if it took any inspiration from the original.

MinikitSophie @minikitsophie.com · 01/10/2026

27 years ago this month, LEGO Friends released. The game was created out of an attempt by the LEGO Group to research if there was a market for video games aimed at teenage girls.

Here are the patch notes for today's update to LEGO Fortnite Odyssey:

000

MinikitSophie @minikitsophie.com · 30/09/2026

One year ago today, LEGO Party! released. Around 250 minigames were prototyped during its development, with the ones able to have a title featuring a pun usually being selected.

111

MinikitSophie @minikitsophie.com · 29/09/2026

Star Wars: Battlefront II's LEGO mod got a massive update this year, adding support for Geonosis along with a ton of new vehicles, and the Galactic Civil War is coming right after. Watch it here: youtu.be/T3IFQHTyn48

MinikitSophie @minikitsophie.com · 27/09/2026

11 years ago today, LEGO Dimensions released. TT Games had always struggled with getting license-holders to agree to a game mixing multiple IPs, especially with the lack of paid DLCs at the time. However, the success of The LEGO Movie as well as the arrival of toys-to-life changed this.

120

MinikitSophie @minikitsophie.com · 26/09/2026

29 years ago today, LEGO Island released. The game is actually heavily based on the multiple intelligence theory, with players being able to switch between characters that embody unique abilities like mathematics, music and coordination.

130

MinikitSophie @minikitsophie.com · 25/09/2026

26 years ago today, LEGO Stunt Rally released. Originally, the game offered free-roam racing, but young players frequently getting lost after going off-road lead to the vehicles being put on rails, though this functionality can still be re-enabled using console commands.

MinikitSophie @minikitsophie.com · 24/09/2026

The winning designs from LEGO Ideas' Batmobile contest has been added to LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight! Have you spotted them yet? 👀

011

MinikitSophie @minikitsophie.com · 23/09/2026

18 years ago today, LEGO Batman: The Video Game released. Due to the 90s films and Dark Knight Trilogy being considered too dark for the target audience, TT Games instead opted to create an original story with a focus on which environments to portray, like abandoned fairgrounds.

110

MinikitSophie @minikitsophie.com · 22/09/2026

It notably features a character exclusive to those who purchased the original film on home media but, as this promotion has since ended, you'd have no way of knowing the cheat code "D9TZ39".

020

MinikitSophie @minikitsophie.com · 22/09/2026

Nine years ago today, The LEGO NINJAGO Movie Video Game released. As it was the first LEGO game to not release on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, several improvements were made to its graphics, lightning and performance, like allowing for more enemies to be on the screen at once.

121

MinikitSophie @minikitsophie.com · 22/09/2026

26 years ago today, LEGO Alpha Team released. The earliest concept for the game was that basic household objects, like dog bowls and toasters, were actually secretly powered by incredibly complicated contraptions controlled by minifigures.

110

MinikitSophie @minikitsophie.com · 21/09/2026

25 years ago today, LEGO Racers 2 released. When work on the game started, developer Attention to Detail requested a large amount of LEGO bricks from the LEGO Group to make physical prototypes of the vehicles. This led to their offices being quickly covered in bricks.

100

MinikitSophie @minikitsophie.com · 19/09/2026

Seven years ago today, LEGO Brawls released. The main inspiration for the game came from the multiplayer of New Super Mario Bros. for the Nintendo DS, which the co-founders of Red Games would constantly play while on business trips.

MinikitSophie @minikitsophie.com · 18/09/2026

With every event, my LEGO Technic collection in Asphalt Legends keeps growing 🥰

MinikitSophie @minikitsophie.com · 15/09/2026

One year ago today, LEGO Voyagers released. The basic mechanic for the game came about shortly after the release of an update for LEGO Builder's Journey, where a question was pondered: if you were a singular LEGO brick, how would you interact with the environment around you?

100

MinikitSophie @minikitsophie.com · 11/09/2026

20 years ago today, LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy released. Originally, you wouldn't have unlocked the final level of each episode after completing the fifth one. Instead, you needed to earn a certain amount of gold bricks, similarly to the bonus levels.

221

MinikitSophie @minikitsophie.com · 10/09/2026

You can now unlock the Bat-Signal in LEGO Fortnite Odyssey's Knight Shift event by completing new Batman quests!

Since LEGO Skylines was first revealed, several content creators were allowed to play an early demo which gave us a ton of new information as to what to expect, including the potential lack of trains. Watch it here: youtu.be/c8EH1ZlY8iU

MinikitSophie @minikitsophie.com · 07/09/2026

Still have a few extra things to find and there's the Mayhem Collection right around the corner, so I'm definitely not done playing... 😅

000

MinikitSophie @minikitsophie.com · 07/09/2026

The open world, however, felt much more like a chore, mainly due to the repetitiveness of the side activities, some of which you have to attempt multiple times due to unforgiving conditions, as well as the fact that it all looks the same which, yeah, it's Gotham City.

MinikitSophie @minikitsophie.com · 07/09/2026

Just 100% LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight! 🥳 Playing through this game's story was an incredible experience from start to finish. As a massive Batman fan, getting to progress through all of his different incarnations, from the humorous 60s to the much more serious 2010s, was a blast.

MinikitSophie @minikitsophie.com · 06/09/2026

27 years ago this week, LEGO Racers released. In the mid-90s, developer High Voltage Studio started work on a game allowing you to build LEGO cars and race them. Its founder would go on to call the LEGO Group to pitch the idea, which quickly greenlit the project.
