Last month, LEGO Universe Design Director Jordan Itkowitz hinted that a major update is coming to the game based on a new LEGO toy line. Well, that new toy line has been unveiled and it's called Ninjago. The product line is full of spinning ninjas (they're masters of Spinjitzu, after all), and they're coming to LEGO Universe in a few weeks!

The new Ninjago-themed adventure zone of Crux Prime will feature a story that unfolds throughout the year, as well as new missions, achievements, gear and items. players must seek out Sensei Wu among the ruins of the Ninjago Monastery to learn the secrets of Spinjitzu.

While you wait for Crux Prime to launch in LEGO Universe, check out the new screenshots in our gallery and the trailer after the jump.
