The Incredibles aren't just coming to theaters this summer.
They're also getting their own video game. Wednesday, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, TT Games, and Disney announced a "Lego The Incredibles" video game.
The first Pixar/Lego game let's fans play as members of the super-powered Parr family — Mr. and Mrs. Incredible, Violet, Dash, and Jack-Jack — as they navigate through adventures from both "The Incredibles" and "Incredibles 2" storylines.
TT Games executive producer Nick Ricks tells INSIDER "Lego The Incredibles" has been in the works since 2016 and they worked very closely with Disney-Pixar to get every detail just right.
"It has been our first time collaboration with Disney-Pixar and this has had a profound effect on how we’ve created our story, cut-scenes and characters," said Ricks. "This collaboration certainly comes through strongly with the innovations we’ve made in the characters designs and abilities, along with ensuring the dialogue, scene selection and camera work are some of the best that I’ve ever seen. On top of this we have a massive open-world hub, filled with crime lords that must be cleaned up, all new ways to build immense Lego structures and focus on the Parr family’s collaborative crime-fighting results."
What you'll do in the game
Fans will play through adventures from both 2004's "The Incredibles" and its 2018 sequel. A lot of the gameplay is being kept under wraps to avoid spoiling the new movie, but we can tell you the game will have story levels along with worlds to visit, including Municiberg and Nomanisan Island.
Both were seen in the first film.
Players will use the Parr's super powers to progress through levels and take down villains in each city. The game will include an addition that hasn't previously been seen in Lego games before.
"Alongside the narratives of both films, we’ve crammed our world full of the challenges and puzzles players have come to expect, and added something new; crime waves," said Ricks. "In these sections, our massive hub world has been sub-divided in to a series of districts, each under the dominion of an infamous crime lord. The players will need to use the family’s differing and unique crime-fighting styles to defeat the goons, confront the lords, and bring law and order to all."
Who you can play as
If you've played any Lego game before, you'll be able to play on your own or team up with family or friends in a two-player co-op mode.
Ricks was careful to not give specific names, but it sounds like you'll be able to play as more than just the Parr family. The game will include characters from both "Incredibles" movies.
"All of your favorite supers, villains, and locations have been meticulously re-built in Lego style to combine the epic story telling of Disney.Pixar, with the endless creativity and customization of Lego play," said Ricks.
You can bet if the Incredibles are heading to Syndrome's headquarters of Nomanisan Island that the villain is bound to be there. The photo above shows the Incredibles' friend Frozone on, what appears to be, the same island.
Expect some Easter eggs
"One of the many meeting of minds that we’ve had over the course of this game, has been both TT’s and Disney-Pixar’s fondness for self-referential jokes and hidden references," said Ricks. "For us, its speaks of how kids play with their Legos toys, happy to combine and incorporate other minifigures and Lego bricks as best suits their imagination. It is precisely this imaginative stimulation that Disney-Pixar tap into as well, delighting and surprising their fans. Whilst I can't speak of any specifics, Easter eggs do feel like a very natural fit…"
"Lego The Incredibles" will be available for the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC June 15, 2018.
