‘LEGO Worlds’ Halloween DLC Pack Will Take You to Monster Town
In Monster Town, Halloween is every day.
Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, TT Games, and The LEGO Group just announced that Monsters, the second downloadable themed content pack for LEGO Worlds, will be available in October.
The Monsters Pack adds Monster Town, a peculiar place full of scary quests, terrifying creatures, haunted houses, and ghastly vehicles sure to send chills down players’ spines.
“In Monster Town, Halloween is celebrated every day! But delinquent zombies are taking their trick-or-treating a bit too seriously. Players must use their LEGO brick building skills to repair the damage and scare away the zombies with tricks of their own.”
Check out the announcement trailer below!
LEGO Worlds, a galaxy of imaginative worlds made of digital LEGO bricks where players can explore, discover, and create together, is currently available for PlayStation®4 computer entertainment system, Xbox One, and STEAM.
In the grim darkness of the far future there is only war, but it was a cheerful illustrator from England who helped to define the terrifying war-torn imagery that inspired what we now know as Grimdark (a hybrid genre combining horror with sci-fi/fantasy).
Unfortunately for fans of Warhammer 40,000, Trench Crusade and countless other sources of Grimdark thrills, veteran artist John Blanche passed away this week after struggling with health issues for the past few years.
While the artist retired back in 2023, he leaves us with an enormous legacy of iconic artwork that continues to inspire gamers and storytellers around the world to this very day.
The news is especially gloomy as it was only last year that Daniel Lowman and Napoleon Dynamite himself Jon Heder released The Grim & the Dark: The Search for John Blanche, a documentary following Heder’s exploration of the Grimdark genre culminating in a heartwarming encounter with Blanche in his own home.
Below is one of my favorite pieces by Blanche, his highly influential depiction of Warhammer 40k’s God-Emperor of Mankind on his Golden Throne.
We send our deepest condolences to John Blanche’s family, friends, and fans.
