    LEGO City: Undercover doesn't quite stand up as well in its 2017 form as it did when it originally came to Wii U; series improvements have come in the years since that leave this one looking slightly dusty in comparison. There are also some technical issues that hold it back, with odd graphical blemishes - a pity as the updated engine is generally an improvement - along with performance issues in co-op and handheld mode. That said, played as a console game in single player, like its original, this still offers an easy-going and slightly anarchic fun time.

    Lego City Undercover is a solid offering from Warner Bros. and TT Games. It doesn’t offer an experience all that different from previous Lego titles, but the jump to the Switch hardware does make it a step up from many other Wii U and 3DS Lego offerings. The game does suffer from some technical warts, but for those that never made the trip to Lego City, this is certainly the best way to experience it.

    Absolutely crammed full of Lego universe humour and a fantastic showing of what the Switch is capable in terms of giving us a 1080p/30fps openAbsolutely crammed full of Lego universe humour and a fantastic showing of what the Switch is capable in terms of giving us a 1080p/30fps open world game in the veins of GTA but without the M+ rating.

    The only minor gripe I have with this game is that the eshop version is coming in at around €50 here but the physical card can be bought for €30-35 it's just a shame to have to pay an additional €20 for the convenience of not having to swap out game cards to play this if the digital versions cost was in line with the RRP it seems to be following right now.

    Really great game though, if you're looking for another open world that isn't Hyrule then this is well work checking out.    … Full Review »

    Yea, the game looks quite cool and I like the basic humor, but thats pretty much it. The framerate in this game is absolutely unacceptable. InYea, the game looks quite cool and I like the basic humor, but thats pretty much it. The framerate in this game is absolutely unacceptable. In undocked mode it happens quite regularly, that the game drops to 15fps and lower, making it basically unplayable. Do not buy!… Full Review »
