As a massive fan of the slightly gimmicky LEGO games, and the Lord of the Rings series…and Batman. I think a preview is in order.

We expect loads more details to come out at E3 but for now we have a couple of images from the game with a bit of side information.

LEGO The Lord of the Rings (Wii, PS3, 360) is developed by Traveller’s Tales, published by WB Games and releases sometime in the later stages of 2012.
