There had been some strong hints that Warner Bros. and Tt Games would be completing Lego The Hobbit’s story with DLC. The title was released in advance of the concluding cinematic chapter, meaning the game covers only the first two films.
Unfortunately, that cliffhanger is likely to remain unresolved, at least where DLC is concerned. GameInformer reached out to Warner Bros. a number of times on this matter, and were previously told there was no news.
Today, there’s closure. Gamespot reports and we can confirm that Warner Bros. has no intention of releasing DLC representing The Battle of the Five Armies.
"The LEGO The Hobbit video game gives LEGO and Middle-earth fans a fun, new way to experience the legendary adventures of Bilbo and company as told in the first two films of Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit trilogy,” a Warner Bros. representative told us via email. “The game provides an excellent set-up for the concluding chapter of Peter Jackson’s film, The Hobbit: The Battle of Five Armies. There are no plans to develop DLC based on the final film of the trilogy."
Our Opinion
With this news I am shocked, I personally waited to get this game because i loved the series and did not want any spoilers and was disappointed when the game ended at the end of the second movie. I loved the Hobbit series and the whole time watching the final movie I kept thinking of how awesome the Lego levels would be for it. After that disappointment i thought well maybe they will release the final movie as a DLC. NOPE! Gameinformer posted on Twitter that Warner Bros. won't complete the trilogy in the game with a DLC. This news shocked me and angered me.
There is still a possible hope, the only thing confirmed is no DLC. Warner Bros. can still release a collection pack with The Lord of the Rings & Hobbit together for the Xbox One similar to what GearBox Software did with Borderlands 2 and the Pre-Sequal.
