Warner Bros. Interactive has announced a new element included in LEGO Dimensions. Players will find something known as “Adventure Worlds” in the game.

Adventure Worlds offer something different than the story stages with open-world environments. There are 14 in total, all of which are unlocked by any of that respective property’s characters. DC Comics, Lord of the Rings, and The LEGO Movie can be unlocked with the Starter Pack thanks to Batman, Gandalf, and Wildstyle. It’s possible to unlock other environments with characters from LEGO Dimensions Level Packs, Team Packs, and Fun Packs.

A first trailer showing LEGO Dimensions’ Adventure Worlds can be found below.

On Wii U, Activision is making Skylanders SuperChargers. It’s the next core entry in the Skylanders series with gameplay that is similar to the other versions.

Activision has something different in store for Skylanders on 3DS and Wii. Today, the publisher properly unveiled “Skylanders SuperChargers Racing”. This is a dedicated racing combat game with new tracks, power-ups, boosts, hazards, and more. In the 3DS version, players can experience 4-player online and local races.

Skylanders SuperChargers Racing include Bowser and his Sky vehicle, Clown Cruiser. These can also be used on Wii U. By twisting the figure’s base, the figure becomes an amiibo.

Yesterday, we posted a number of tidbits coming from a Part Time Gamer interview with Nintendo Treehouse localization writer/editor Chris Pranger. If you missed that, you can read it right here.

Gamnesia has since transcribed Pranger’s comments about Super Smash Bros. director Masahiro Sakurai. Here’s what we said about the developer:

“Sakurai’s outlook on the games is very dire. He gets really sad when he finds out how people are reacting and he gets sad whenever there’s a leak, because he really wants to create. And he’s an auteur in the most crazy sense. He’s basically Vincent Van Gogh cutting off his own ear and we’re sitting there going ‘Frick! Stop doing that!’ And he’s like ‘You don’t get it, guys, my vision!'”
