Here's a peak at everything you need to know:

NEW GAME MODE: BASE RACE

The Base Race game mode is a unique twist on the classic LEGO Brawls gameplay. In this mode, players must work together as a team to collect as many bricks as possible and use them to build their team's tower. One catch – players can also attack the other team's base to steal their bricks. The game mode is a solid mix of strategy and skill. Players must balance between collecting bricks and attacking the enemy base.

Royal Rumble Basics

Compete in teams of four to collect the most bricks and build youteam's medieval tower. The first team to gather (and hold onto) 200 bricks to complete their tower wins. But if both teams get over 200 bricks, a "Tie Break!" is initiated and one team must get the other team's tower below the threshold to win.

By Hook or By Crook

Mine resources to collect bricks! Trees provide 25 bricks before they disappear, but you have to wait for them to replenish before you can mine them again. The rock quarry has unlimited bricks but takes more effort to mine. Watch out for the minecarts full of gold or TNT! Gold minecarts will increase in value over time (watch the compass to see what it's worth), while TNT minecarts will deplete an enemy base of -25 bricks. But be careful! TNT minecarts become more volatile as the game progresses and could explode on you.

Storming the Castle

Players can also attack the other team's base to collect bricks. Only the completed part of an enemy base can be attacked. It is essential to maintain control of your tower's area to protect your base and prevent the other team from poaching your bricks! Bonus – players are healed while standing at their base depositing bricks, so protecting home base has its extra advantages.

Jousting for Position

With resources to gather and enemy bases to attack, the race is on to see which team will emerge victorious. The game mode introduces a new scoring system to LEGO Brawls – players earn points for depositing resources, eliminating other players, and damaging an opponent's tower. It’s essential to work together strategically as a team to come out on top.

NEW CASTLE-THEMED MINIFIGURES & CONTENT

LEGO Brawls is also introducing new LEGO Castle themed content to collect – three new chapters that contain 12 minifigures, plus melee weapons and emotes. These are a must-have for fans of the game who want to expand their collection and add some royal flair to their gameplay. Collect all the new content and become the true king or queen of the castle!

NEW POWER-UP ICONS

Players can now see icons that represent different powerup attributes. Icon attributes show up on: the customization screen, during the unlock sequence, and on the collection screen. Use them to craft the ultimate loadouts for your brawlers! A Powerup Attributes Guide can be located in Help → Hints & Tips → Powerups → Last Slide.

You’re joust in time! The new castle-themed level and game mode are AVAILABLE NOW! So rally your knights, don your armor, and get ready to medieval on some minifigs in this epic battle for glory! Go forth and BRAWL!
