Prepare for Star Wars: The Force Awakens to enter the Lego galaxy.

The Disney-owned (DIS) film franchise is headed to the brick universe this summer. Microsoft (MSFT) Xbox Games Store leaked the title Monday night through a product page. The release date is planned for June 28.

Time Warner-owned (TWX) Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment confirmed the 2016 title a day later. The game will be developed by its Traveller’s Tales studio, which created the first Lego Star Wars video game, A New Hope, in 2005. (The studio has also translated franchises such as Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, and Batman into pixel-bricks as well.)

Watch the goofy trailer, which pokes fun at director J.J. Abram’s promo for the blockbuster film, here:

The game’s description says it will feature “exclusive playable content that bridges the story gap between Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi and Star Wars: The Force Awakens.” Players will also be able to assume the roles of the latest movie’s main characters, including Rey, Finn, Han Solo, Chewbacca, Poe Dameron, Kylo Ren and even the droid BB-8.

Electronic Arts (EA) released its own movie-based game, Star Wars Battlefront, in November.
