Aside from the UEFN tools being made available for creators, three new LEGO Islands have been introduced as well. Here is what players can expect from each:

• LEGO Prop Hunt: Uses popular Prop Hunt mechanics to create LEGO fun for you and other players within the expanse of a wacky shopping mall.
• LEGO Battle Arena: Allows you to become the next Spinjitzu master. You can enroll in special training at the LEGO NINJAGO Dojo. Lloyd and the Masters of Spinjitzu will be present there. This island will allow you to compete against other trainees, hone your skills, and prove yourself.
• LEGO Cat Island Adventure: This is all about meeting and nurturing your relationship with a friendly cat on the island and spending time together. You will need to complete tasks to keep your cat happy, and they’ll let you know if they are not.

These new islands have joined LEGO Raft Survival and LEGO Obby Fun, which were launched earlier in February. While the lineup for this brand has already expanded considerably, there’s still more to come.
