With Skylanders and Disney Infinity, we’ve become accustomed to yearly releases. However, with LEGO Dimensions, Warner Bros. won’t be taking the same approach.

Speaking with GameSpot, TT Games founder and creative director Jon Burton noted that Warner Bros. won’t be bringing out a new Starter Pack next year. Fans can instead look forward to new content, likely in the form of different packs.

Burton also mentioned that there are plans in place to support LEGO Dimensions for the next three years.

Burton’s comments in full:

We absolutely see Dimensions as a platform. They’ll be no new Starter Set next year, but lots of new content that will be compatible with everything we release. We already have plans for the next three years and plenty of companies have approached us to get involved. We’ll have lots of exciting new announcements in the new year.

Big John Games recently shared some news about Cube Creator 3D. Along with information about the game’s first update, the developer also confirmed that the European submission is happening very soon.

In terms of Cube Creator 3D’s first patch, Big John Games is adding two new environments, new features to existing environments, new enemies, ladders, several new block types, several texture packs, and the ability to transfer environments between creative and survival modes. There will also be several bug fixes along with improved loading time and performance.

Big John Games is also planning on introducing multiplayer at some point in the future. However, it’s only in “the initial planning stages” at the moment, so it’s a fairly long ways off.

Cube Creator 3D’s first update will be submitted to mid-June. The game itself will also be submitted to Europe shortly. Once language translations and ratings are done with, it’ll be just about ready for launch on the European 3DS eShop.
