Tomorrow, 18th June, LEGO CON 2022 kicks off, which promises to have news and reveals for everyone, not just LEGO fans.
The company has really ramped up what this event has to offer after the one last year left people a bit underwhelmed.
“LEGO CON is a virtual convention for LEGO families and fans, but it’s also much more than that. Join us for a live extravaganza of entertainment and be the first to know about what’s new with us as we unveil new sets, share the latest news and take you behind the scenes. Connect with friends, special guests and each other for an action-packed schedule,” reads the official description of the event.
We’ll get back to the actual content of the show in a minute but it’s worth mentioning where you can actually watch it and what languages are available.
LEGO CON 2022 is mostly taking place on YouTube with several stream options available:
- Main stream in English
- American Sign Language
- British Sign Language
- German subtitles
- French audio description
- French subtitles
- Dutch subtitles
- Spanish subtitles
- Italian subtitles
That’s quite the list of options when it comes to language support and we’re happy to see two different sign language systems supported for one event.
Back to the details of the stream itself and those watching it live can expect two hours of showtime. As always we prefer to catch these kind of shows after the fact when we can watch them at a higher playback speed, but those who prefer the atmosphere of a live event can tune in.
Now for the juicy stuff, the actual contents of the show. LEGO has promised news from just about every IP you can imagine: Lightyear, Super Mario Bros., Minecraft, Harry Potter, Star Wars, Marvel, James Cameron’s Avatar and more are all in the docket.
On top of this several of LEGO’s own creations like Friends and Ninjago will be getting their own sections.
LEGO CON 2022 starts at 18:00 local time in South Africa tomorrow.
