LEGO 2K Drive is a fantastic racing experience that’s sure to appeal to both younger players and those who take their driving VERY seriously. The open world looks great, is full of events to complete, and lets you unleash your destructive side by smashing through seemingly endless LEGO blocks, whilst it’s super rewarding to show off your creative side with the robust vehicle creator. Plus, the racing feels great, which is perhaps the most important aspect of all.

LEGO 2K Drive is a really solid kart racer, built on top of an incredibly powerful customisation system which really lives up to the level of freedom we think of when thinking about LEGO. It’s a game that is legitimately fun for all ages and will appeal to players that want a really fun kart racing exploration game, and also those that like to spend hours upon hours creating LEGO vehicles.

LEGO 2K Drive is a wildly impressive triple threat of a great LEGO game, a great open-world adventure and a great racing game. Whether you want to challenge your friends in slick and exciting head-to-head races, tackle a hefty single-player campaign stuffed with varied and plentiful content, or just spend hours building your own LEGO vehicles by the brick, you're absolutely covered here. A couple of issues aside, this is easily the best multiplatform arcade racer around.

LEGO 2K Drive is a really fun expierence for younger, but also older LEGO fans. The games has many incredible things to offer. For example, there are many really enjoyable challenges to find in the open world, and it's incredibly cool to build your own racecar with LEGO bricks. The story is a bit unoriginal and the game has microtransactions, what we could expect from a game made by 2K. Nevertheless, everyone who enjoys LEGO or arcade-racers, should give this game a shot!

The open-world approach of the single-player and the good number of alternative challenges make LEGO 2K Drive a good alternative to the usual Mario Kart. Visual Concepts may lack some experience to achieve Nintendo's sublime track-design, but the start of this potential new franchise is more than good.

Lego 2K Drive builds an incredibly inviting world where speed and silliness reign supreme as you race and morph across its delightfully destructible setting. Despite some frustrating mission design and a smattering of bugs, Lego 2K Drive quickly won me over with its absurd narrative full of irreverent dialogue and moreish open-world challenges. If only the specter of microtransactions didn’t loom so large in this kid-friendly game, it would make for an even smoother ride.

The racing is addictive, vehicle customization is deep, the world is charming, and there is much to see and do in LEGO 2K Drive. Some minor speed bumps are baked-in, but they cannot stop this otherwise solid racer.
