Today at the E3 Convention in Los Angeles, CA the LEGO Group announced the release date for their MMOG LEGO Universe. It is set for October 12th, 2010 for LEGO “founders.” The Official launch will be October 26th, 2010.
LEGO Universe will also allow players to create their own content using a simple programming language. Fans or “Founders” of will be able to get into LEGO Universe before the official launch. The game will be sold exclusively through LEGO channels including LEGO Stores, LEGO Online Shop and LEGOLAND.
On October 26th, the official launch date, LEGO Universe will be available through all retail channels distributed by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment. Also, being planned for global release, LEGO Universe will be rolled out to additional territories after the initial launch.
We’ll have a slew of new assets from E3 soon, so check back.
Until then, Play safe.
More updates about E3 and LU would be coming at the MLN blog soon!

Although it is not as long, I like this trailer more than the first one. It defines the background story well, and basically summarizes the main points of the Great Minifig Mission.
Oh, there's a new gameplay video out there:

A lot of new info here. Sorry for the double post, I found this just after my last one.
I am pretty sure this hints at an introduction movie in the game like many videogames have. That would be great! :)
Aaaaand...
Another E3 LEGO video if anybody's interested: http://www.gametrailers.com/video/e3-2010-lego-harry/700062

Its nice to be fore sure on the date of release even though I can't get it. :(
Does founders release mean beta testers?
Founders are the users that found out that the game was available for preorder, those are the founders
@ sim533, I like how you changed the background a lot!
they just sent out the LU email
I know but we can't make a post about that. ^_^
@Sim533
Did LEGO say that you weren't allowed to disclose the contents of the e-mails anymore?
Also, I don't know if anyone noticed, but LEGO Minifigures have been priced at $1.99 each.
well, I got two emails, a beta email and a regular email
I know about them, I just need to recieve them in my mailbox.
Sorry, but I can't still post it. *NDA*
'k, just checking
Yeah, yeah. Sure, no problem... ;)
Ahem...
There is a new Pre-order email that was sent out.
I'm pretty darn sure it was for everyone, since the beta email was sent separately. ;)
Ugh, once again I am wrong...
That email was for betas only. =P
Yeah, I saw it, but that's not a reason I may not publish that comment. =P
