Rumour: Lego Rock Band in works at TT

A VG247 source has claimed Traveller’s Tales is working on a Lego version of Rock Band for EA.

Our chatterer assured us the information was “100 percent correct”.

UK developer TT Games confirmed in a Radio One interview with EGTV’s Johnny Minkley last night that a Lego game is to be released this year, but refused to confirm its identity.

Minkley speculated the title was a second Indiana Jones game during the show.

Traveller’s Tales was rumoured recently to be working on Lego Harry Potter, talk Warner slapped with a swift “no comment“.

A Lego Potter game would have to be a collaboration with EA, as the publisher owns game rights to the Hogwarts hyper-franchise.

Traveller’s Tales – which is owned by Warner Bros – has yet to confirm future projects, having released Lego Indiana Jones and Lego Batman in 2008.

EA US was unavailable for comment at the time of writing.

Huh? Surely not. What would be the point of Lego Rock Band? All that would change would be the background graphics. Not really a worthwhile use of the license. How odd.

ya, wow, wouldn’t copyrights and trademarks stop them from doing this? and c’mon, lego would have horrible graphics for a song playin thing. honestly, i think it’s completely false and would be stupid, so i hope they don’t make it.

They’d obviously be doing it with permission. Tis good advertising for Lego.
