The World of LEGO Dimensions is getting a whole heck of a lot bigger. Today it was announced that The Simpsons, Doctor Who, Ghostbusters, Portal, Jurassic World, Midway Arcade, LEGO Chima and Scooby-Doo! are coming to LEGO Dimensions!

You can also earn gold bricks from missions but you accumulate those slower than if you were a member or you flat out bought a bunch of gold bricks. I personally don’t think that you need them to enjoy the game. There are always things to do whether you have all the fanciest equipment or not.
