Last Friday (July 27, 2007) at ComiCon, LucasArts unveiled a new action adventure title based on the Indiana Jones franchise – Lego Indiana Jones. The classic Indy films will be getting the Lego block treatment that worked so well for Star Wars in this Travelers Tales developed title, due Summer 2008 for all the next-gen systems.

The game takes place across all three classic Indy flicks and gameplay includes vine-swinging, giant boulder dodging, and all sorts of platforming action. The trailer also shows a great deal of the humor characteristic of the Lego Star Wars titles, a good sign for Dr. Jone’s adventure.

If its Star Wars brothers are any indication, Lego Indiana Jones will be something to look forward to next summer. If it does well, imagine what other famous film trilogies could benefit from Lego treatment – Lord of the Rings? Aliens? I hope the licensing gods are listening.
