Racers will be able to build, explore and race their LEGO creations in the new game available on PC and across all consoles including PS5 and Nintendo Switch from May 2023.
Image: LEGOLEGO has teamed up with 2K, the makers of computer games WWE 2K22 and NBA 2K23 to release LEGO 2K Drive, the ultimate AAA driving adventure game. Players will be exploring Bricklandia, home of a massive open world LEGO driving adventure where they will be able to race anywhere, play with anyone, build their dream rides, and defeat a cast of wacky racing rivals for the coveted Sky Trophy.
From the first look at the trailer, this has all the makings of an instant classic in the same style as Mario Kart, The Simpsons Road Rage and Crash Team Racing.
A collaboration with McLaren will see the McLaren Solus GT and McLaren F1 LM which have been released in LEGO Speed Champions form, available in the world of Bricklandia, as the cover cars.

The wide open world is full of racing, minigames, challenges, collectibles, things to destroy, and well-known vehicles from LEGO themes like City, Creator, Speed Champions and more.
