GAME OVERVIEW:

Join the Chase! LEGO® CITY Undercover is coming to current and new generation consoles for the first time. In one of the most expansive LEGO videogames to date, players become Chase McCain, a police officer who goes undercover to hunt down the notorious – and recently escaped – criminal, Rex Fury, to put an end to his city-wide crime wave. This open-world LEGO adventure allows fans and newcomers to explore the sprawling metropolis that is LEGO® CITY with more than 20 unique districts to investigate, filled with car thieves to bust, vehicles to navigate, mischievous aliens to capture, hilarious movie references to discover, lost pigs to rescue and of course, hundreds of collectibles. With 15 special assignments to conquer, LEGO CITY Undercover brings together witty, original storytelling with signature LEGO humor to create a fun-filled experience for players of all ages, available on the PlayStation®4 computer entertainment system, Xbox One®, Nintendo Switch™ and PC.

GAME FEATURES:

BECOME LEGO CITY’S FINEST – Assume the identity of undercover police officer, Chase McCain, and track down the fiendish Rex Fury to finally put an end to his city-wide crime wave.

EXPLORE THE CITY – With more than 20 distinct districts to investigate, LEGO CITY is a bustling metropolis that is ripe for exploration and filled to the brim with people on the streets to interact with, criminals to take down and hundreds of collectibles.

BE A MASTER OF DISGUISE – As a man of many talents, Chase McCain has eight disguises to choose from, each with unique skills and abilities to infiltrate every corner of the city, allowing him to access places a regular old officer can’t.

OVER 100 VEHICLES – In LEGO CITY, every vehicle on the street can be commandeered with more than 100 to choose from so players can get behind the wheel of sports cars, motorcycles, helicopters and more to chase down criminals or take a leisurely ride through the urban jungle to check out the sights.

FIGHT CRIME – Take down criminals with hand-to-hand combat or arrest bad guys using Chase’s handy grapple gun and standard issue police handcuffs.

THE CAST – Chase is joined by officer Frank Honey, Chief of Police Dunby and paramedic Natalia Kowalski, who are just a few of the more than 300 unlockable and playable characters that gamers will meet throughout the adventure.

HUMOR, HUMOR, HUMOR – Featuring an original storyline, LEGO CITY Undercover is chock-full of signature humor with hilarious movie and music references peppered throughout the open-world.

The Amazon (UK) listing (at £44.99 [Switch] & £49.99 [PS4]/[Xbox One] with £2.00 discount for Prime Members) states this:

"The best-selling, well-reviewed LEGO City Undercover brings humorous, open world LEGO gaming - with newly added two player co-op - to new gen console players for the very first time!"

Heat added. I was originally going to get this on PS4, but after getting a Switch and loving the ability to just take the console out of the dock and carry on exactly where you left off (and vice versa) I am sold on getting the Switch version

You're right; [Add to basket] is shown (& disabled) for the Nintendo Switch product, but [Pre-order] is enabled for the PlayStation 4 & Xbox One items.

It wasn't like that when I submitted this "Deal" thread.

I wonder if the initial stock allocation has been pre-ordered &, hence, the item is no longer available.

Previous "Deals" for this merchant have seen similar issues when items go out of stock, then return again a few hours later.

The button on the product page (for me) says [Pre-order] (not "add to basket").

I used Mozilla Firefox (64-bit for Windows) when I placed my pre-order (my first order at the site), & just now to check.

No issues here.

Which browser are you using?

so the same game with just co-op added. I thought the game was very simple on the Wii U compared to other Lego games, as though they'd dumbed it down a bit so wouldn't see the point in co-op unless playing with a very young child.

Also the original Wii U version utilises the second screen quite a bit, not just for the map but as a spy camera using the gyro's built in, obviously this will have to be taken out of this version.

Ye i will still keep my digital preorder as still cheaper than the actual physical price its been. Warner bros made another big boowoo again. Should repackage all games prior to release but guess they wont

27 Mar 17 #51

13gb you havd to download if you buy the physical cartridge eg you pretty much downloading the game as they only putting it on a small capacity game cartridge, if you dont have internet then you wont be abls to play straight out of the box!

Warner Bros. clarify LEGO City Undercover box info snafu

Switch owners looking to get hold of LEGO City Undercover were left confused yesterday after images of the game’s box cover went online. The issue revolved around a warning on the cover stating that “up to 13 GB storage” would be required to play the game, taking up a significant chuck of the 32 GB memory that comes with the Switch as standard. Thankfully, this morning Warner Bros. provided Eurogamer with a statement that the information was “listed incorrectly”, and that Switch users “do not need to download additional content to enjoy the full experience.”

Speak for yourself, disastrous sales but far from a disastrous console. I would argue that the 'Wii' and the 'Switch' are disastrous consoles considering both were/are minor improvements to old tech in the 'Gamecube' and the 'Wii U'.

The Wii had some dreadful shovelware, and after trying the Switch out at the launch event in Hammersmith I was far from impressed.

haritori

9 Mar 17 #26

This game is hilarious, I am not a fan of the Lego games but this is something else, I hope sales are really good for it because it deserves a sequel.

I would say the Wii U version would be the definitive version as the gamepad adds a lot to the game, and graphically its not going to be much improvement on the XB1 or PS4, I imagine the Switch version will be very similar in graphics..

I'd say a remaster of the Wii U version.

This version will have much better load times (Wii U load times was beyond terrible for this), Improved visuals, 2 player co-op exploring this GTA Lego world type game.

It's definitely by favourite Lego game, aside from perhaps Dimensions, well worth a purchase if you haven't played it before. This price is brilliant compared to the likes of Amazon as well.
