Gameplay
Lego Brawls is a mobile fighting game with a four-player vs. four-player multiplayer with the goal to control the center of the map until your team's color is full.[6] Lego Brawls also comes with a training and party feature. Lego Brawls allows the player to create their own "hero" to their liking with their own weapons and power-ups.[3] As the player plays, the player will be rewarded with mystery chests that contain either a cosmetic element or a combat element.[3]
Minifigures
The collection of playable minifigure characters is based on recognisable Lego minifigures that have been released throughout Lego history either as part of Lego construction sets, as collectible minifigures or as part of one of the Lego themes. Minifigures are grouped into different types and include classic space, pirates, town and city, castle, collectibles, Ninjago, Hidden Side and Jurassic World.

LEGO Games Vice President Sean William McEvoy said that the game was developed for families to enjoy; “Having grown up playing with LEGO, we were inspired to make LEGO Brawls something that families could play together. Apple Arcade is the perfect venue for this shared experience. Whether they’re playing on iPhones in separate locations or sitting next to each other in front of an Apple TV, players of all ages can enjoy the fun of LEGO Brawls anywhere at any time.”[8]
Lego Brawls was announced to be an Apple Arcade game exclusive during Apple's March 26 event.[9] The trailer was released later that day.[10] On October 25, 2019, Lego Brawls was released on macOS.[11]
