LEGO 2K Drive Reviews
Given that this is a full-price, premium game aimed at children, one that is designed to encourage children to buy real-world LEGO bricks, locking content behind season passes and micro-transactions feels gross. It’s not on the level of NBA 2K, but it’s still pretty bad. It’s a black mark against an otherwise excellent game.
Other than having vague missions at times to get to story-essential races, LEGO 2K Drive is an incredible time.
Lego 2K Drive has everything a family should have. You can play it co-op with friends, families, especially little kids, and have a blast time. The creation part of the game is rich and just wait to see some of the most amazing cars build by the community of Lego in this game. The overall design of race tracks and side missions could have been better, but the part that is weak compared to all other things in the game
A perfect embodiment of the LEGO world, with a great handling model and equally great car creation mode, marred by aggressive micro-transactions that nevertheless can be bypassed.

LEGO 2K Drive smartly wields the kart racing genre as a foundation for familiar LEGO game mechanics like creative building and open world exploration. Its casual, humorous tone will appeal to any LEGO or TT Games fan. Aside from unfortunate in-game purchases, the actual racing and LEGO construction are intuitive and offer strong replay value.
LEGO 2K Drive is an absolutely enjoyable and family-friendly fun-racer in an open-world-environment. The game transports the LEGO-formula very well and along with its unique humor, LEGO 2K Drive is a racing-game that stands out. However, there are some flaws regarding the open-world-design and the implementation of microtransactions.

There is simply so much to do in LEGO 2K Drive with engaging side content and a car creator that will soak up as much time as the game itself, that regardless of age you will be amused for hours. The multiplayer is what we have come to expect, joining a pal is seamless and once you’re done player 2 can just drop out without a second thought. The release of LEGO 2K Drive means we could be looking at one of the best family-friendly racing games around and we can’t wait to finish off the rest of the side missions on offer.
LEGO 2K Drive is a colourful, fun and light title, as well as a pleasant surprise. It's not a perfect game or one with great competitive pretensions, but it allows us to spend several carefree hours in numerous activities. Recommended for a young audience as well as a more experienced one, especially for social evenings thanks to the local multiplayer.

Sometimes, as a gamer, you long for a game that you can just let your hair down with. That inner child wants to get some fresh air from time to time, and LEGO 2K Drive is there for just that. Not everyone will be here for the numerous puns and hammy dialogue, but I think anyone picking this up won’t be disappointed in the classic fun of screwing around with a vat of LEGOs. While the vehicle editor has a bit of a spazzy camera and seems to be missing a couple of parts, it’s still so robust when it comes to bringing those childhood fantasies of racing your custom LEGO car to life that it can be easily forgiven. It’s just a shame the same can’t be said about the egregious microtransactions that are about as painful as stepping on a LEGO. Still, if you have a taste for arcade racers and a love for LEGO, or are maybe looking for a good first racing game for the kids, you can’t do any wrong taking a pit stop at LEGO 2K Drive.
LEGO 2K Drive is something grand and fun with its colorful open world and destructive races. Handling the car may be hard at first but it will soon stop being an issue. The big question really are the microtransactions limiting the way we can enjoy all the content the game has to offer.

Bricklandia brings you Lego driving with a twist. An open-world adventure where you can create and operate your own Lego vehicle. Street-based racing, off-road adventuring or water shenanigans, your vehicle transforms wherever you find yourself!
LEGO 2K Drive is a joyful merge of creative construction and high-speed action. Its transformation mechanics and imaginative customization system provide a fresh, exciting twist on the racing genre. Although some hiccups in its execution prevent it from achieving pole position, the game is a solid entry in the LEGO lineup and a must-play for fans of both racing and creative gameplay.
LEGO 2K Drive is a supremely entertaining kart racer, especially for the little ones. So, if you're looking for an easy-breezy time in a delightfully silly game world then you'll thoroughly appreciate what this kart racer has in store.
Lego 2K Drive is a solid offering. It takes the best parts of Mario Kart, adds some vehicle transformations from Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed, and borrows open-world game design from Forza Horizon, but with a Lego twist. Driving is enjoyable and the game’s performance is well-optimized. The mini-games are all sorts of fun and quite challenging as well. Lego 2K Drive is a solid foundation for a potential new franchise.
Despite these easily fixable flaws, I haven’t had this much fun in an arcade racer in a long time. It’s a beautiful and smooth experience with clever level design, cheeky humor, and the ability to make some truly spectacular vehicles. With split-screen and online multiplayer, LEGO 2K Drive is a great choice for some late-night gaming shenanigans.
If you come in expecting LEGO 2K Driver to fit firmly with previously released LEGO games, then you’re in for a world of disappointment. This is a game of its own based purely on racing and open-world exploration. While not all of it works completely, it does have enough charm and creativity to push it through as a game worth playing.
It is difficult to say whether this game is for adults or for children. This game is just too difficult and too extensive for the really small kids, and just too easy for adults. I therefore think that they have tried to find a middle ground that is just not balanced enough for any target group. You notice during AI races that you often get it thrown in the last round and you will still be able to win quite easily with some boosts and power-ups. LEGO 2K Drive, however, is a refreshing concept that especially feels very varied. The racing that is interspersed with chases, then checkpoint races, then bomb-dodging challenges constantly feels quite enjoyable.
