Lego The Hobbit Red Bricks Locations Guide

Our Lego The Hobbit Red Bricks Locations Guide shows you how to find and/or unlock all 32 Red Brick locations in Lego The Hobbit on the Xbox 360, PS3, PC, Wii U, Xbox One, PS4, PS Vita & 3DS game.

Where To Find Red Bricks: All Lego The Hobbit Red Bricks are found in the Middle-earth open world hub, not in levels. Red bricks are only in the overworld – some come as rewards in sidequests (called Fetch Quests) and others require specific actions only certain characters can perform. So in some cases you’ll need to use our “Lego The Hobbit Blacksmith Designs Locations Guide” to build the required Mithril item at the Blacksmith in Bree to then give to the quest-giver. – Once you attain a Red Brick, you still need to pay studs to be able to use the Red Brick cheat. All unlocking methods are listed below.
