Having already had success with Lego Batman, Lego Indiana Jones, Lego Star Wars and more, developer TT Games now has the assignment of adapting the characters, world and environment from the Pirates of the Caribbean movies into the universe of Lego.
Lego Pirates of the Caribbean: The Video Game will be published by Disney Interactive Studios for the Wii, Xbox 360, PS3, PSP, DS, and Games for Windows - Live to coincide with the highly anticipated Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, scheduled to arrive in theaters next May.
Other Pirates of the Caribbean video games have sold more than 6 million units globally, so Disney is hoping the magic of Lego can build on that success.
"Pirates of the Caribbean is a globally successful franchise based in action, adventure and humor perfectly suited for a Lego Pirates of the Caribbean: The Video Game adaptation," said Graham Hopper, executive vice president and general manager, Disney Interactive Studios. "Combining the excitement of playing as Jack Sparrow and other recognizable characters from the franchise will make the game fun for players of all ages throughout the world."
"The action-packed world of Pirates of the Caribbean is a perfect fit for Lego video games," said Tom Stone, Managing Director of TT Games Publishing. "With so many wonderful characters, in such amazing environments, our teams are having great fun -- and we're sure that players will, too."
In the game, players will be able to take on the roles of more than 70 characters and "experience the pirate adventure, irreverent humor and amazing creatures of the Pirates of the Caribbean films, through action-adventure gameplay and hilariously quirky Lego cut scenes." Players will explore environments from the movies across 20 levels, and as usual with Lego games, a two-player cooperative mode will be offered.

I have had a lot of fun with the previous Lego games and am a fan of the Pirates of the Caribbean movies. This game should be a lot of fun.
