LEGO Worlds is a relatively unique entry in the IP's video game library, adopting the sandbox / creativity-led approach of titles like Minecraft as opposed to structured action-platforming storytelling. Initially released on PC in early-access while development progressed, it's arrived this year on consoles such as PS4 and Xbox One.
Warner Bros. has now confirmed that the Nintendo Switch version will arrive in the Fall / Autumn period. The announcement came as the company confirmed the first 'Classic Space Pack' DLC at a price of £2.99 in the UK, and the Switch retail edition will include two pieces of DLC on the cart from day one. If you pick it up on the eShop DLC will be sold separately.
It was also announced that LEGO® Worlds will be coming to Nintendo Switch™ this autumn and is now available for pre-order. The physical version features access to two bonus packs of premium DLC including Classic Space, and a digital version features the base game with the DLC available separately on the eShop.
Are you interested in picking this up for Nintendo Switch?

One of my student will like this LEGO.
Oh great! I thought this was going to skip the Switch as we saw this in the store the other day for the Ps4
Im curious how it will perform on the Switch, as its actually a really taxing game, at least on PC.
Will have to see actual gameplay footage first but definitely interested!
Nah... Picked this up on PS4. Was really looking forward to it, but its just not good...
@daveh30 What does that mean?
I was excited for this game, but it gets bad reviews and also costs less than £20 on PS4/Xbox One. So I'll probably give it a miss...
Cool! Might be the first Lego game i actually buy. Me son says good things about it so, we'll see.
Side note: I'm in the deepest darkest corner of minority on the internet when I say, I wish they'd do something with Primal Rage. :/
I have it on the PC. If my kids want to play it on the Switch also, might as well.
Better late than never I guess. I've read reviews and unfortunately it's not an outstanding game.
@Nintendoforlife I was expecting more of an open world, Minecraft style game. This one is *very small levels, silly fetch quests, any challenge that might have been there is removed by the fact that you can just delete any part of the world that might be an obstacle. The controls for trying to build anything are terrible. They might work ok on pc with a mouse, but they're awful on a console controller. I'm a fan of other Lego games, but this one just isn't fun. Even my 7 year old quit after about 30 minutes and went back to Minecraft.
@daveh30 That sounds pretty terrible bro, almost like a gimped version of Minecraft. Huh thanks for the insight, I'll keep that in mind.
I can't wait for this!
My kid paid $15 for this when they announced early access about 2 years ago. He's probably gotten his money's worth but there really isnt all that much to it. It's cute, it's quirky - you can ride a giant squid - I think it would be good for 4 to 8 years old. I suppose some people might get sucked in to the creation mode, but there isn't a whole lot of there there. It's the kiddie version of No Man's Sky.
Switch should get Terraria, my kid is addicted to that.
Finally! I bought on PC first day it came out in Early Access on Steam but it never ran to well even with graphics low. So I'm glad to buy on Switch, especially because you can take it anywhere, bigger screen, and better multiplayer!
Need to start playing this again. Bought it on Steam when it was early access. Digging through the terrain in a large mining vehicle was very satisfying.
Was planning on getting this game this week actually as its on sale for $20. Seems like a perfect switch game but looks like the Switch tax strikes again. Preorder price is 10 more than the other versions essentially making the dlc not so free anymore. Hopefully this trend ends soon
@rjejr Terraria was announced for the Switch months ago.

I wish I liked Lego games. I am getting the deluxe version of marvel superheroes 2 because Marvel...but I would kill for a regular superhero game. Which is why Spiderman will be very, very welcome. (that and I have almost every spiderman video game)
@daveh30 Did you collect 100 gold stars to make custom words that can be 'massive'? Never played the game, so wouldn't know
Never have been the LEGO type, physically nor digitally in gaming. I'll keep an eye on it but I'll prob stick with Minecraft.
Looks like Nintendo has put together a good line up from summer through to the holiday season. The Wii U was cursed by long stretches of nothingness. While this game isn't a big target for me, I bet a younger audience would enjoy it. But it's something to add to Arms, Splatoon, Rabbids, Lego, FE Warriors, SM Odyssey, Fifa, Skyrim and Xenoblade 2 that are all due out before the end of 2017. There is something there for everyone!
A maybe for me. Used to love lego games but they followed a certain formula & I just got tired of them. If this comes out in an off month then maybe. We'll see.
I was going to buy this on Xbone a week ago but I'm glad I waited! I'll definitely wait a little longer to give my money to Nintendo instead.
This game is not that bad, it's actually fun to play and create, just not the biggest levels and worlds and the story mode isn't huge. If it was $60, it would be disappointing, but when I bought it at $30, it was worth the price...you get your money's worth and after the various updates, they did add a little more to it! For a cheaper Lego game, it's fun to play (I own it on PS4). With the Switch being touch screen, could be good...suprised it never was released on 3DS. You Switch owners should be happy with it, as long as you like the Lego games! When I purchase a Switch, this is one that I'd pick up again!
Hope they improve this game
Lego Mario DLC. Calling it.
I bought it for my xbox one but its the first lego game I didn't like.
I have it on pc. I don't think it is a good game, I think it is quite poorly thought out and designed honestly, but maybe I will buy it on Switch too because this #@]# little game knows how to give you that itch tha only that very same game can scratch, you probably understand what I mean lol. Lego city undercover is immensely better as a game but it is absolutely not nearly as addictive as this one.
Meh. I'm just hankering for the retail release of the original Minecraft.
I heard the game was very glitchy on PS4, so hopefully they fix it.
@Matthew010 I never did get that far. That's probably the biggest problem with the game, the creative, open world mode that I think most people would want to play is locked away behind hours of linear, restrictive game play. I just got the point with the controls and the janky menus that I figured the open world creative mode wasn't gonna be worth it...
@Nintendoforlife E3 or it didn't happen.
Thanks for the news, my son will be happy to hear that.
Man, between Minecraft, Mario, XC2 I'm not sure how we'll get by w/ just one Switch in the house. Nintendo needs a $199 SwitchPocket by the time Pokemon releases, whenever it does.
@rjejr You might have to stage the death of your switch my friend haha.
Free dlc on the cartridge...however the cartridge might cost more, AGAIN. Trololol.
Any news on split joycon co-op? Or willl co-op require two controllers?
