LONDON, UK – 29th May, 2009 – LucasArts and TT Games today announced that LEGO® Indiana Jones™ 2: The Adventure Continues will whip onto Wii™, Nintendo DS™, PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system, PSP® (PlayStation®Portable) system, Xbox 360®video game and entertainment system from Microsoft and Windows in the Fall of 2009. Developed by the same team at Traveller’s Tales that created the award-winning LEGO® Indiana Jones™: The Original Adventures and the LEGO® Star Wars™ series, LEGO Indiana Jones 2 presents a tongue-in-cheek take on all four cinematic adventures of pop culture’s most iconic archaeologist, including for the first time ever Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull and will give players the ability to create levels of their own!

“LucasArts and TT Games continue to set the bar for next-generation family entertainment with the LEGO Indiana Jones franchise,” said Darrell Rodriguez, president of LucasArts. “LEGO Indiana Jones 2 delivers something a little different for everyone. Parents will enjoy the humorous take on the classic moments from their favorite movies, and their kids have an opportunity to experience the most authentic LEGO experience by building their own fun levels brick by brick.”

“It has been a real joy to work with LucasArts on such an iconic character. Indiana Jones embodies the adventurous spirit that perfectly suits the LEGO world,” said Tom Stone, director at TT Games. “Indy also presents us with wonderful and memorable cinematic moments.”

Looks interesting in the fact that users will be able to create levels this time.

No word on a PS2 version though.

VG247.com dropped this news recently.

Looks like there won't be a PS2 version. That's good. Just let the system die already.

I am looking forward to this game. The original was great, so playing through the new levels, and the old ones with new objectives will be fun. As will the 4th movie even though that movie was rather lame. Now I just need to decide if I should buy it on the Wii or the 360. I didn't really use the whipping motion control in the first one, so maybe for the 360 to get some HD eye candy. Or maybe whichever one is cheaper.

Price wise they will probably be pretty close (with the 360 version probably hitting a price reduction before the others-if going by the fact that not much after release it was being bundled with the system and Kung Fu Panda for a cheap price for it all).

If you have the HD setup, I would say go with the 360 version (particularly it will probably be easier to exchange levels with others on it, plus there is a hard drive so you won't have to mess with SD cards and such).

It depends on whether exchanging levels requires a Gold membership or not.

I really think MS has messed up a good thing with that splintering of the membership levels between Gold and Silver.

Another lego-movie game? I really like those, too bad there's no voices, but still they worth the buy

I dunno. They seem to be having a ton of success with their service. I may cave and buy a membership next time I see one on sale as I want to play 1 vs 100.

I have no problem with paying for an online service like Live, just it seems that they would have been better off with one service rather than Silver and Gold, but as you said, they seem to be doing good business with it.

it looks cool, but whats it gonna be about, wasnt the first based on the 3 movies, and they cant make a whole game on the last film, maybe on young indiana jones adventures?
