It looks like LEGO Dimensions is aiming for a truly immersive experience as many of the original voice actors are reprising roles for LEGO Dimensions
If there is one thing I demand in my games like LEGO Dimensions it is authenticity. If there are two things I demand it would be that TT Games resurrected some of those dead actors to come back and reprise their roles in LEGO Dimensions. I don't care what kind of necromancy or time travel that would be needed but they have Warner Bros. money here so I am sure that they could do it. Sadly though I think I am only getting part of that in LEGO Dimensions when it launches on September 29th for the PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, and Wii U. Now you can guess which part but I'm guessing it is not going to be the necromantic arts path we all hope for in LEGO Dimensions.
What we will be getting is a whole buttload, real unit of measurement, of voices coming in to bring all of the characters in LEGO Dimensions to life. This is above and beyond the generally assumed ones and the ones that Warner Bros. have already announced. I think the big kicker for many is going to be most of the cast of Ghostbusters and the living doctors who were willing to drop by TT Games' place and make each of their characters from Doctor Who come back to life in LEGO Dimensions. I thought each incarnation only had one go at it? Although I'm just glad that Michael J. Fox is bringing Marty McFly fully back into existence again here in LEGO Dimensions.
Have a look at some of the people that will be bringing LEGO Dimensions to life in the latest trailer for the game. There are only so many featured actors in the video but there are also a slew of names and of course Warner Bros. gave us a list to go along with it. Even though said list still isn't complete as I am sure that there are some surprises that will want to be kept for LEGO Dimensions proper. None the less here's who you can expect to hear when you crack this bad boy open.
LEGO Dimensions — Who's Got Talent
Some of the talent and entertainment properties featured in the video include Michael J. Fox who played Marty McFly and Christopher Lloyd who played Doc Brown in the Back to the Future films, and have rerecorded and reprised their roles in LEGO Dimensions. From The LEGO Movie, Chris Pratt returns as Emmet, Elizabeth Banks as Wyldstyle, Alison Brie as UniKitty and Charlie Day as Benny, among other actors from the film. And as part of the original LEGO Dimensions story, Joel McHale is X-PO, the game’s robot guide, and Gary Oldman is Lord Vortech, the evil mastermind who seeks to control the LEGO Multiverse.
LEGO Dimensions includes many other famous voice actors in addition to those featured in the video. Members of the original cast of Ghostbusters, The Lord of the Rings, The Simpsons and Scooby-Doo will also be reprising their roles for the game. In addition, Chris Pratt is Owen Grady and Irrfan Khan is Simon Masrani from Jurassic World, along with other members of the film’s original cast. Peter Capaldi is the 12th Doctor, Jenna Coleman is Clara Oswald, Michelle Gomez is Missy from Doctor Who, and many other original actors from the long running British science fiction television series have also returned to voice their characters in the game as well. From the world of DC Comics, Troy Baker is Batman and Tara Strong is Harley Quinn. Stephen Merchant is Wheatley and Ellen McLain is GLaDOS from the Portal video game series.
Did you see all of the names you were hoping for here in LEGO Dimensions? Do you think the Ghostbusters will include Bill Murray or will it be just Aykroyd and Hudson? Were you hoping for Will Arnett for Batman or did you want Troy Baker? Do you hope that there is some point were Chris Pratt talks to himself in LEGO Dimensions? Let us know in the comments below. We are only a few weeks out from the game's launch so hopefully we will have more information to give you; even though I am sure that surprises are wanted to be kept for LEGO Dimensions when all is said and done.
