Lego 2K Drive is an approachable open-world racing game in the vein of Forza Horizon with a surprising amount of depth.
Forza Horizon 4’s excellent 2019 Lego expansion worked so well that it seemed obvious that an open-world Lego racing game should become its own thing. Thankfully, we didn’t have to wait too long to see that become a reality. Visual Concepts and 2K Games have announced a multi-title partnership with The Lego Group that begins with the open-world racer Lego 2K Drive, which launches on May 19.
While the contrast between the two might seem jarring, the Lego figures and buildings blend in quite well with the pretty landscapes of the game. Creative Director Brian Silva discussed how tricky balancing this was with Digital Trends, ultimately comparing the game’s look to playing with Legos in your backyard.
While real car models are featured in the game, players can build their own too. Lego 2K Drive’s kart creation and customization go very deep, as there are tons of Lego pieces at your disposal, and its menus are intuitive enough to use to where it’s easy to create some wacky vehicles fast.
When racing against real people, properly boosting and drifting becomes way more important, as does using offensive and defensive items that pop out on the track. There’s mission variety outside of standard races too. In one story mission, I was driving through hordes of invading alien robots to defend three generations.
