When it first released on December 19, 2019, Lego Builder's Journey was initially an exclusive game for the Apple Arcade service on iOS and macOS; however, the game was subsequently ported to the Nintendo Switch and Microsoft Windows, with these ports both being made available on June 22, 2021.[1] It was also ported to Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S on November 25, 2021.[2] Lego Builder's Journey and Lego Brawls are the first two Lego games for Apple Arcade.[3]
Development and release[]
The game, originally developed under the title Lego Arthouse, has been described by Lego as "... a narrative journey about play itself, touching deeply on the belief of we only get old because we stop playing. Targeted at a more mature audience, it is an expression of the value of creativity in a coming of age story, set amongst a micro LEGO world heavily inspired by our AFOL community."[4]. It was the first game developed by Light Brick Studio, Lego Group's own internal video game development studio.[5][6]
The Windows version of the game uses Nvidia RTX.
