The aim is to defeat Lord Garmadon, who has a Shark Army, and save the land of Ninjago. Check out the trailer below:

Each location has its own Challenge Dojo where players can test their skills against enemies that become increasingly difficult. There is also a localized multiplayer feature where 4 players can battle it out in split-screen action! TT Games managing director for the new Lego Ninjago game Tom Stone talked about the game’s playability:
