Something entirely different from the makers of The Secret World.

New Lego MMO in Development

We suspect there will be more than sixteen to collect...

Today has announced that they’re currently developing a new MMO utilising the prized license.

According to MCV, the family-friendly experience will be centred around ‘Minifigures’ and will be part of the minifigures.lego.com web domain, which apparently draws in millions of unique visitors a month – oh la-di-da.

“The market for family-friendly online experiences intended for children and youngsters is brimming with potential,” explained Funcom CEO, Trond Arne Aas.

“Being able to work with a world-renowned brand such as the LEGO brand to develop an MMO for this audience is incredibly exciting to us as game developers and for Funcom as a company.

“This is source material we all know and love and we simply cannot wait to get started working with the LEGO Group on realising this exciting project.”

We suspect Funcom’s take on Denmark’s proudest export won’t be quite as violent as they’re previous work, such as The Secret World or Age of Conan, and we sincerely hope it sticks around a bit longer than the recently canned LEGO Universe.
