LEGO Ninjago: Nindroids is coming to the 3DS and PlayStation Vita, Warner Bros. announced today. A release is planned for the summer.

Here’s an official overview of the game:

LEGO Ninjago: Nindroids players will face their greatest challenge as they work to protect New Ninjago City from the Overlord’s Nindroid army. Infiltrate Borg Tower, fly the Kai Fighter and face off against the evil Tech Wu. Take to the streets in Cole’s Earth Mech and Jay’s Thunder Raider, defend the skies in Zane’s Ninjacopter, escape Pythor on Lloyd’s Golden Cycle, and enter the Digiverse for an epic final battle. Story mode features additional favorite characters like Nya, Sensei Garmadon, Samurai X, and PIXAL.

Hellbent Games is working on Nindroids as an action-focused sequel to 2011’s LEGO Battles: Ninjago for DS. It’ll feature 30 levels and a story that follows key plot points from the “LEGO Ninjago Rebooted” animated series.

Players will need to use special movies and combo attacks to progress. LEGO Ninjago: Nindroids also offers secret weapons such as Technoblades to hack into computers to solve puzzles and defend the city.

Grab your Ferrari (or just a 3DS), because it looks like M2’s next 3D re-imagining of a retro Sega title is the 1986 classic, Out Run. The game’s logo popped up on the Japanese website for their range of 3DS ports, so it looks like more news on the game should be imminent.

We’re still waiting to see if Sega will localise this second wave of 3D classics, but fingers crossed that we’ll get to play these new versions of Fantasy Zone, After Burner II and, of course, Out Run some time in the near future. But until then I’ll be working on my Galaxy Force II high score.
