The two companies say Lego 2K Drive “will combine the best elements of open-world driving and fast-paced competitive racing, while introducing a diverse vehicle customization system”.
Players will journey across Bricklandia’s multiple unique regions as they compete against a series of rivals with hopes of one day winning the coveted Sky Cup Trophy.
They’ll be able to choose how they want to play, with a wide open world to explore full of racing, minigames, challenges, collectibles, things to destroy, and well-known vehicles from Lego themes like City, Creator, Speed Champions and more.
The game’s customisation system allows players to build their own vehicles to suit their tastes, with over 1,000 unique Lego pieces available over the course of their adventure, in addition to a wealth of colour designs, stickers, flairs, and more.
Game modes include co-op, competitive multiplayer, and 2-person split-screen.
In addition, a collaboration with McLaren Automotive will bring the McLaren Solus GT and McLaren F1 LM to the world of Bricklandia.
Remi Marcelli, Head of Lego Game said: “Video games have long been an important way our fans experience the magic of the Lego System-in-Play, and 2K’s strong track record of delivering quality, innovative titles for a broad range of audiences makes them the perfect partner to create the next iconic AAA Lego games.
