In LEGO The Hobbit, you can play out your favorite scenes from the movies and follow the hobbit Bilbo Baggins, who accompanies the great wizard Gandalf to help Thorin and his dwarves. Leaving the pleasant comforts of the Fylke, Bilbo embarks on a journey through Middle-earth to help the dwarves reclaim the kingdom of Erebor in the Lonely Mountain. Along the way, he encounters goblins, wights and, of course, Gollum and his precious ring.

Players will use and combine the dwarves unique abilities, often with hilarious outcomes, to solve various quests.
