Lego Worlds Gets Sandbox Mode in New Update
Lego Worlds has been updated with new features and bug fixes. Version 1.1 adds a sandbox mode, UI changes, new content from a couple of sets and various improvements. Hopefully this is just the first in a long line of updates that will bring the game closer to what the fans seem to want. You can read the full patch notes below.
The sandbox mode will allow you to build as you please, with almost all bricks, tools and objects available from the start. Some of the rarest ones will still have to be unlocked in Adventure mode first, but most won’t. There’s no tutorial in it, so if you’re a new player, you should check out Adventure mode before you dive into this. The new content stems from Nexo Knights and City Emergency sets. The developers didn’t mention what it is exaclty they’ve added, but they’re promising this is not the end of content updates.
