Funcom to make Lego MMO

MCV reports that Funcom and Lego have teamed up to create a massively multiplayer Lego game based on the extremely popular Lego Minifigures.

Funcom, makers of {The Secret World} (releases July 3), and Age of Conan, have previously dipped their feet into more casual territory, while Lego made an attempt at a Lego MMO with {Lego Universe}, ultimately closing it down earlier this year as it was unprofitable.
