Update: TT Games has officially confirmed that LEGO Ninjago is going for free on PS4. In a tweet, the developer has said the game will be available to all from now until 21st May, giving you just under a week to redeem your free copy. Also, all regions now have access to the game for free. Get it downloaded!
Original Story: Here's a heads-up: PlayStation 4 owners with North American accounts can nab another freebie game. We're unsure if this is intended or not, but LEGO Ninjago Movie Video Game is currently available on the US PlayStation Store free of charge.
We're inclined to think this is a deliberate move, as the game is also free on other platforms right now. However, there's yet to be any official communication on the matter. Our advice would be to add this to your PS4 library as soon as possible, just to be on the safe side.
The game itself is a solid LEGO platformer based on the Ninjago film from a few years ago. As with other LEGO titles, it has drop-in co-op for up to four players, so this would make for a great game to play if you're currently staying at home with family.
Over on the European PS Store, the game is still showing its usual price tag, but we'll update this story if that changes. Will you be grabbing this free PS4 game? Act fast in the comments section below.

Just downloaded this no problem. Thanks!
Got it! It's free on Xbox as well so definitely sooner type of promo. Thanks again!!
I already downloaded it for my son via PS Now, so even if it does become free I doubt I'll actually be able to download it again, thanks to Sony's brilliant licensing system
Fun game but watch out for bugs, had to replay it 3 times for the platinum.
Excellent freebie though!
@tomassi The game comes off PS Now in few weeks time if you didn’t see. I can’t remember the date but I think it’s start of June.
Ah yes, once again Murica being showed favouritism. 🙄
I always miss these but not this time
Got em
@viciousarcanum
Just make an American psn account. Use the address of white house. Im
I'm sure he won't mind
Got it, thanks pushsquare for the news
@viciousarcanum Just make usa account, non-usa psn kind of suck, like asian psn didn't have all psn games. Thankfully you can use 2 or 3 account with different region on ps4 with no problem.
Already played and got the platinum a while back.Currently playing Lego DC Villains and got to admit the Ninjago game is more fun.
Nice... Usually get LEGO games when they go on sale. FREE is always good.
@B-I-G-DEVIL cool, hopefully it will still be free by then!
@j_whitfield8 thanks, I'll give it a go.
Seems to be free with Brazilian accounts as well
Got it, thanks, I think the boys will play it.
Read this and thought it would be a great family game
"has drop-in co-op for up to four players,"
but then I remembered we only have 2 PS4 controllers. Though we do have several Xbox 1 controllers - for PC - and an actual Switch Pro so maybe my kid can give them a try, he's into breaking things.
Edit: Still $49.99 w/ the Switch tax. Nintendo hates sales.

If you look on the UK store website, and search for Lego, it says free for Ninjago until you go into it at which point it's full price? Have they forgotten to update something?
@sanderson72 Now when you go to order and pay it should say £0
@nitram2k11 Thanks, I'll get that downloading now!
Officially confirmed by WB Games https://twitter.com/wbgames/status/1261280171241484288?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1261280171241484288&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fforum.psnprofiles.com%2Findex.php%3Fapp%3Dcore%26module%3Dsystem%26controller%3Dembed%26url%3Dhttps%3A%2F%2Ftwitter.com%2Fwbgames%2Fstatus%2F1261280171241484288
I just downloaded for free on the UK store.
The Lego Ninjago Movie Video Game Entertainment Software product.
Featuring Dante from the Devil May Cry Series.
@tomassi - Add it via the webstore and it will treat it as a regular purchase regardless of PSNow.
Can also confirm its free in the UK
@tomassi as well as what @Shigurui said, you can also just create a new account and download it that way, still be able to access it.
Brilliant. Thank you TT games!! Great promotion to see how the lego games have developed ahead of the skywalker collection too
Can't complain about free games. Lego games, although not particularly amazing, are still good fun from time to time
Added it to my list
Oh cool! Love Lego games!
Ooh at least I got one decent free game this month 🙄
cool kids love the movie and its my kinda price
Won't play it but i napped it anyway.
why is it free for a week on PS4 but only for one day on XBL?
that doesn't make any sense
Barely found it via Google and regional page redirections. It's one thing to have Russian PS Store arbitrarily list different games with English OR Russian titles, but when the Russian ones end up flying entirely under the Latin alphabet search radar...
For the record, the giveaway is also happening on Steam. Not holding any breaths for eShop (although it's the only version I'd give an actual try in the visible future), but quite generous of them as it is.
Birthday present from Push, thanks!
@Richnj sweet, adding it to my downloads now 😊
Just getting error messages on the store. Due to high traffic maybe?
Thanks for the alert, telling everyone I know about this nice deal.
Not interested in this, but I will be telling my sister for my little nephew. He'll love it.
