Today at the E3 Convention in Los Angeles, CA the LEGO Group announced the release date for their MMOG LEGO Universe. It is set for October 12th, 2010 for LEGO “founders.” The Official launch will be October 26th, 2010.
LEGO Universe will also allow players to create their own content using a simple programming language. Fans or “Founders” will be able to get into LEGO Universe before the official launch. The game will be sold exclusively through LEGO channels including LEGO Stores, LEGO Online Shop and LEGOLAND.
On October 26th, the official launch date, LEGO Universe will be available through all retail channels distributed by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment. Also, being planned for global release, LEGO Universe will be rolled out to additional territories after the initial launch.
We’ll have a slew of new assets from E3 soon, so check back.
Until then,
Play safe.
Dear Lego Universe: In such an important announcement as the introduction of a new game featuring the “famed” Lego, it would be really “cool” if you PROOF READ your announcement so that it made sense, before you put it on the web!! Please re-read the second graph and notice that it does not make sense, as there is an omitted word. Beginning “Founders” of XXX will be able to ….. I realize many people on the Internet are semi-literate but for those of us who still understand the reudiments of the English language, please try to proof read your announcements.

That was actually our bad. Good proof reading!
