LEGO Brawls announces update with Base Race mode, Castle-themed level

More content is trickling out for LEGO Brawls, as it’s been announced that the title is set to receive a new update which adds a Base Race game mode and Castle-themed level.

The Base Race mode has players working as a team to collect as many bricks as possible and using them to build a giant tower before their opponent.
