Lego 2K Drive: A Nostalgic Racing Game with a Chaotic Twist
Lego 2K Drive, an open-world racing game created by veteran studio Visual Concepts, combines the explorable world and discoverable challenges of Forza Horizon with the fun handling, weapons and power-ups of Mario Kart. Executive producer Mark Pierce's ambition has been to bring the arcade design mentality of 1980s Atari to modern open-world racing game design. The game has an in-depth construction mode where you can build your own vehicles from scratch using around a thousand different Lego bricks, as well as stickers. It's been 20 years since US developer High Voltage Software released Lego Racers, a driving sim that combined the knockabout gameplay of Mario Kart with the visual style and construction possibilities of Lego.
