LEGO City: Undercover Reviews
Like all Lego Games we have not a challenging experience on Lego City Undercover, but undoubtedly this is one of the most complete games on the franchise with an original story based on the famous toys. With all the classic humor of Lego Games, a varied city to explore and the new split-screen coop game, Lego City Undercover is still fun four years later than its original release.

LEGO City Undercover for Nintendo Switch is an adaptation that succeeds in its main goals. This is an open world LEGO game that remains fun to play, with a very large amount of content to explore and even though it doesn't represent a revolutionary development compared to its original version, it's certainly a game that should be played by all those who haven't had a chance to do it before.

Having played all those other Lego games in the past, Lego City: Undercover feels like a retread, despite its solid design and mechanics. If you're a newcomer to the series, Lego City: Undercover will be loads of fun, especially when played with a sidekick in your living room. If you're someone who played the Wii U version or many of the games in the series and are looking for something new, however, Lego City: Undercover will likely feel like more of the same despite being one of the best incarnations of the Lego formula.
It's easy to see why some would outright dismiss LEGO City Undercover purely on the basis of it being a LEGO game. The formula has gotten a bit too stale over the years, so if you're looking for something fresh in the LEGO universe, Chase McCain's adventure won't satisfy you. But if you're still interested in some brick hunting and cop action - and you can look past some awful load times - then LEGO City Undercover will serve you nicely. Its charm, humour, and open world nature was, for the most part, enough to win us over.
The voice actors do an absolutely splendid job delivering the dialog – whether it's Chase McCain's tough demeanor or Frank Honey's silly quips, all of it is spot on.
A bit more love and attention would have seen the PS4 version of Lego City Undercover receive the commendation it deserves, but its unresolved shady past has caught up with it.
LEGO City Undercover is a great game, and one many players likely missed on its first go-around. This is a prime example of a smart re-release. It also helps that each version is improved, and co-op is now an option. For anyone that missed this game on Wii U, there is no longer any excuse. Check out what I think is TT Games best effort in the LEGO genre.
If you have played many hours of Lego City Undercover on Wii U, it's difficult for us to recommend you this lazy port. It has nothing new to offer but a simple coop mode, a better framerate and a little bit more refined graphics. Our judgement might seems a bit harsh, but it totally changes if you're new to Chase Mccain's adventures. Because except a certain heaviness in the controls and the absence of a true liberty, the search for Rex Fury in the streets of Lego City is a real pleasure, truly funny and refreshing. In short, if this beginning of the year is absolutely amazing in terms of game releases, keeping a place for Lego City Undercover might not be the worst thing you could do.

Lego City Undercovered was a pretty descent game on Wii U,

New LEGO City Undercover is not the best remaster of the original game. Updated graphics and co-op option is OK, but developers forgot to fix most of the technical flaws. If you have not played it on WiiU and you like LEGO, then do not skip Undercover. The implementation of game mechanics is still one of the best in the series, together with an excellent full translation into Russian language it can give you about twenty hours of wonderful experiences in cubic LEGO-world. On the other hand, the updated version does not add nothing really new, and if you played the original on the WiiU, you can safety skip the remaster.

If you've enjoyed other LEGO games, LEGO CITY Undercover should definitely be on your radar, but for those who don't, there is nothing revolutionary from the previous formula that will make you change your mind.
LEGO City Undercover is a slap-happy LEGO GTA. This 2017 remaster of the 2014 Wii U exclusive now introduces the originally absent co-op play, while also jumping onto the Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. Easily my favorite LEGO game in years.
This is one of the sloppiest porting ever made, full of bugs, crashes and framerate drops. This is especially unfortunate, because LEGO City Undercover is probably the funniest LEGO title ever made by TT Games. Our suggestion? Wait for a solid patch, a price drop or a sale.

LEGO City Undercover, like many games exclusive to the Wii U, is an undiscovered gem. I’m happy Warner Bros. and TT Fusion decided to update it for a new audience. The story is laugh-out-loud funny, full of witty one-liners and fantastic movie references for kids and adults (“Compupers!”). While the co-op feels very tacked-on, and the loading requires a bit of patience, it’s a worthy addition to the LEGO universe.
With such a fun story, great gameplay, and the ability to enjoy with a friend or relative, you’re never short of having a good time.
LEGO City Undercover was already a great game when it released on Wii U four years ago and this new release takes that and tweaks it just a bit. The overall experience is a little smoother and the addition of co-op is a nice touch, and even though there's nothing substantially new here, those that missed out before will want to check out LEGO City Undercover this time around.
A game that stands the test of time with little improvements to its original formula on Wii U.

Apart from some technical limits on Switch, even today, after four years from Wii U release, LEGO City Undercover remains one of the best LEGO games ever.

For fans of the series who've perhaps tired of the ceaseless march of movie tie-ins, Lego City Undercover is a hilarious, expansive, brick-infused open-world experience that's begging to be explored.
Lego City Undercover is a very enjoyable game for all ages and with a lot of possibilities, but it has some poorly used elements that could have been much better.
