Funcom announces a June 29th rerelease date for LEGO Minifigures Online, the LEGO-based online adventure that launched last year as a web-based free-to-play game. This is now being re-launched as a buy-to-play game (that's really a thing now?) for Windows, OS X, Linux, iOS and select Android devices, and they also announce that players will be able to play in the same persistent world across all platforms. The game will be available through the LEGO Minifigures Online website, which is currently under maintenance to prepare for the changes. Here's word:

"This really is the definitive version of LEGO Minifigures Online and we are very much looking forward to opening the servers for players to experience it," said Funcom CEO Rui Casais. "Not only will it feel like a fresh, new experience for those who have played the earlier free-to-play PC version, there is also so much potential unlocked now that you can play with each other across platforms on a broad range of devices. Maybe you are playing on an iPhone while your friend is on an Android tablet and your dad is on a high-powered PC; you’ll still play together in the same persistent online world, along with thousands of other LEGO fans from all over the globe."

LEGO Minifigures Online is an online game for LEGO fans of all ages, where players can collect over one hundred Minifigures, each with their own unique personality and abilities, and build a team to take on exciting adventures through colorful, classic LEGO environments. From Pirate World to Space World, players must play together and smash their way through aliens, sea monsters and more to unlock the full potential of their Minifigures. The game is KidSafe certified and fully COPPA compliant, with multiple safety measures in place to ensure a fun and secure online experience for everyone.
