Developer TT Games also introduced three more expensive Story Mode packs that allowed players to redecorate their portal pad, as well as several expanded mini campaigns for various sets. Franchises included ET, The Goonies, Gremlins, Knight Rider, Sonic and Harry Potter to name just a few. As a result of wanting to remain competitive, each pack was sold with a tiny margin, which meant that packs that didn’t sell well and were eventually discounted ended up making a loss.ĭimensions allegedly tried to rectify this in its second year by offering a wider range of franchises with a smaller number of sets. While other toys to life series have benefitted from the production of cheaper, plastic models, Lego Dimensions packs were always made with real Lego. Eurogamer speculated the cause may stem from the sheer cost of making the Lego figures in the first place.
Originally set to run for three years when the game launched back in 2015, the third year-long phase will now never see the light of day.
