Five new expansion packs have launched for LEGO Dimensions. These are based on Doctor Who, LEGO Ninjago, The Simpsons and The LEGO Movie.

The different packs offer an extra level, buildable characters, vehicles, and gadgets with special in-game abilities. All expansion pack characters can also unlock the corresponding Adventure World of the same brand.

That’s not all for LEGO Dimensions, as a new “Hire-a-Hero” feature update has gone live. This lets players sample a selection of Wave 1 expansion pack characters using studs collected in the game. To take advantage of the functionality, they can select the hologram minifigure near certain hint stones to unlock characters for a limited time to try out their special abilities to solve problems and complete puzzles. More characters from subsequent waves of expansion packs will be added down the line.

More franchises coming to LEGO Dimensions may have been unearthed via website pages. By modifying the URL of product pages on LEGO.com with certain initials, fans have been finding product numbers for unannounced sets.

A few initials have been spotted thus far. These include HP (likely Harry Potter), AT (possibly A-Team), MrT (Mr. T), and KR (perhaps Knight Rider). Other initials are MI (perhaps Mission Impossible or Monkey Island), FB (could be the Harry Potter spin-off Fantastic Beasts) and ET (ET).

LEGO Dimensions will be getting long term support from Warner Bros. Interactive and TT Games. Speaking with Eurogamer, associate producer Mark Warburton stated that there are plans to support the game with new add-ons until at least 2018.

He said:

“We have a three year plan at the moment and we’ve got no intention of stopping there. We’ve created the technology to the degree that we’re happy it meets our needs for the future. We’ve created the toy pad so that it shouldn’t need to be updated. And we can just create new level and character packs to keep expanding that.”

Warburton also commented on a couple of other topics. He spoke about the value of the Starter Pack as well as the Portal tie-in.

“You can 100 per cent the game and get the Platinum trophy just from the base set. People have been playing Lego games for 10 years now, and we shouldn’t be offering anything less than that.”

“You get the game, you get the toy pad, you get 200+ odd level bricks. We think we’re offering a lot of value with that and there’s a lot of gameplay there. There’s also a huge offering [of extra content] if you’re a fan and want to get into that we support that. But if you’re only a fan of particular thing you can only get that.”

“Jon [Burton, TT Games boss] is the biggest Portal fan you could imagine. We knew we wanted a huge cross-section of pop culture and we wanted something huge from the gaming industry too. And Valve are masters of storytelling. We managed to get Stephen Merchant back in to record his lines and JK Simmons fresh from his Oscar win.”
