There are already a number of great racing games on the market, but, like Jell-o, there’s always room for one more.
2K Games has announced that it’s working alongside the developers at Visual Concepts (WWE 2K23) on Lego 2K Drive, an “open-world” driving adventure that’s set to arrive on May 19th for PlayStation and Xbox consoles, as well as Nintendo Switch and PC. The game will be available in three different editions, including:
- Standard Edition ($69.99 on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series, $59.99 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC)
- Awesome Edition ($99.99) – Includes a new vehicle, vehicle flair, and an in-game LEGO minifigure. Players will also receive the Year 1 Drive Pass, which will introduce an all-new biome, in addition to four individual post-launch seasons of Drive Pass content, each with new vehicles and themes.
- Awesome Rivals Edition ($119.99) – Includes multiple new vehicles, a vehicle flair, and in-game LEGO minifigures. Players will also receive the Year 1 Drive Pass, which will introduce an all-new biome, in addition to four individual post-launch seasons of Drive Pass content, each with new vehicles and themes.
In addition, those who pre-order the game can get a special Aquadirt Racer Pack with extra vehicles. It’s already included with the “Awesome” editions, so don’t sweat that.
