Batman and Gandalf Team Up in New Lego Dimensions Trailer

Warner Bros. has released a new story trailer for its upcoming toys-to-life game Lego Dimensions, giving fans a look at what kind of crazy events can unfold when franchises like Lord of the Rings, Batman, The Wizard of Oz, Back to the Future, and more more come together in one grand adventure.

Lego Dimensions brings together characters and worlds from an array of big-name entertainment brands, including DC Comics, The Lord of the Rings, The Lego Movie, The Wizard of Oz, Lego Ninjago, Back to the Future, Scooby-Doo, LEGO Chima, Doctor Who, Jurassic World, Ghostbusters, The Simpsons, Portal, and Midway Arcade.

This is explained by way of a "mysterious and powerful vortex" that appears out of nowhere, sweeping characters from the various franchises away into another universe. Together, they must fight against the forces of an evil mastermind named Lord Vortech.
