What if Hydra Cap is in this?
10 years and still no online co-op, it's maddening.

In for Spider-Gwen, in for Baby Groot.

They're probably supporting this or working on an unannounced Lego project.

What does this mean? November 14th is already pretty far into the holiday season...is the Switch version instead releasing the 21st or 28th? First week of December? It seems odd to know that a game will miss launch by a week or two this far in advance. Or is this game going to release the same day as the others and Nintendo has claimed the right to announce this? (I have no idea why Nintendo does this sometimes.)
Good point well made!

It's probably because the game will more than likely come out in December before Christmas, but after Thanksgiving. They want to have as many units as they can before Black Fridays, to the PC/XBO/PS4 versions come out then.

Color me interesting if and only if it includes XMen and Fantastic Four. Not interested in just Marvel Cinematic Universe: The Lego Game, but I would love to see a proper good Marvel crossover again like the first Lego Marvel was.

2099 awe yeah
Literally none of these will be in the game
2099 with their great characters, like Spider-man 2099 and...uh...Bloodhawk?
Getting that feeling of deja vu all over again.....

Keep waiting, that's owned by MEGA and LEGO retired the TMNT LEGO sets a while ago.

I did like the concept of Halloween Jack and Doom's whole thing.

That line about the holiday season just meaning "December" makes sense. I'm a bit surprised they didn't give that release date, too, but perhaps they're going to try to release it as early as possible, so they won't set the week until they know for sure when it will hit.

That 4 player coop mode sounds cool but is it a permanent feature or just something for the battle arenas?
Also... that story synopsis does not sound good IMHO, I hope it's not going into LEGO Batman 3 territory with the lame hub worlds that were as big as a building in LEGO MSH. I need my open world Manhatten hub fix for this one too.

Day one, I hope they add the Spider-Man from Homecoming.
I like the corporate made bootleg heroes.
And fucked up clones of the original x-men
They confirmed open world.
I hope you realize you're saying this in a thread about a WB team making a game for a Disney owned IP

But that person is saying Lego doesn't own the rights to produce TMNT toys which means a game is probably not happening. What's the point in using an IP to make a Lego game if you can't use it to make Lego toys?

Weird that Spider-Man 2099 is front and center on the box art; I assume he has a major role in the story given the time travel premise, but he's not exactly what I'd consider a huge draw for the masses.

I don't know about anyone else here, but I'd be interested in a Lego Bojack Horseman.

Yeah a
Yeah, this. Licensing things like this tend to go hand in hand.
Nothing implausible about it considering how late third parties got Switch dev kits. Switch development likely started late because they had no choice in the matter.
Seeing Spider-Gwen and Miguel warms my heart. Not seeing any X-men makes me want to flip tables at this bullshit. Also the Switch version not being same day and date as the rest makes me very uneasy. Not liking this treand of wanting to play games on Switch but having to wait longer. Third parties screwing their shit up with a popular system.

LCU was a simultaneous release and was one of the very first multiplatform retail games to be officially announced for Switch, though.

Well their hubs are all technically open world with quests etc. It's just that some games had multiple smaller hubs rather than 1 big hub (like Manhatten) which is a bummer. LEGO Avengers topped the list with the big manhatten hub + multiple smaller (although bigger than the Batman 3 planets) exotic hubs like Sokovia or South Africa.
We'll see, debating getting this for PS4 for the easy controller setup but I can't justify 40 extra (PC is 29, PS4 69 here) for effectively the same version of the game.

Can't wait for this on the Switch.
I'm playing LEGO City Undercover right now and even though the performance can bog down in the open world parts, it's still great to have a full console LEGO game on a handheld.

Nowadays Kang is more of an Avengers villain than an FF villain.

Yup. I was pumped for Lego Avengers and it was fucking awful compared to the first Marvel game.

The cover and press release make it very obvious this is more shovelware and not a true successor to the first one that had all of the characters in it, this is more MCU trash like Lego Avengers.
I don't care who the bad guy is, the fact they went out of their way not to mention the characters they don't have rights to anymore says a lot, how could they honestly think this wouldn't be the ONLY question people would have of the game.
