The fedora-wearing archaeologist is set to get the plastic brick treatment in time for Summer 2008...
LucasArts has confirmed the development of LEGO Indiana Jones: The Videogame ahead of a release to coincide with the launch of the fourth movie during Summer 2008.
Following in the footsteps of Lucas empire's other famous brand Star Wars, LEGO Indiana Jones: The Videogame will recreate the storylines of the first three movies in 'plastic bricks', and is currently in production at TT Games.
"LucasArts and TT Games are setting the bar for next-generation family entertainment with the LEGO Star Wars franchise, and our incredible relationship continues with LEGO Indiana Jones," said Jim Ward, president of LucasArts. "In addition to providing the quality bonding time inspired by any good family game, LEGO Indiana Jones delivers something a little different for everyone. Parents will enjoy the humorous take on some of their favorite movies, and their kids get some rousing action/adventure gameplay that may also introduce them to Indy's original adventures for the first time."
"It has been a real joy to work with LucasArts on the LEGO Star Wars games. Indiana Jones is the perfect character for the next LEGO-based videogame adventure," said Tom Stone, director at TT Games. "Indy also presents us with wonderful and memorable cinematic moments. The boulder scene of Raiders of the Lost Ark in LEGO is hilarious!"
LucasArts themselves are currently working on a new Indiana Jones videogame, set a year after the events of The Last Crusade, which is also pencilled in for release during 2008.
