So much for the return of Lego Racers.

I see the store page and I think, "Awesome! a Lego racing game for the first time in decades" Then I see the publisher, and I think "Oh no!" then I see the DLC plans and the "Driving pass" and I think "OH NO!"

All we needed was a non predatory, family friendly game that would also appeal to older fans who remember the classics. I'm not pretending that would be easy, but was that really too much to ask?!

I feel the same way. Was pretty excited thinking a new Lego racing game was coming out, Loved Lego Racers so much!

Sadly I predict it will be a mess.

You know you can still just buy and play the base game and not care about any of the extra stuff, yeah? Like I agree I'm sick of the over-monetization of games when they don't even know if it'll be successful but I'm not gonna let that stop me from enjoying the core game if I find it fun.

lmao see the thing with 2k is they will absolutely make an amazing game but yeah it will be full of the most ridiculous microtransactions ever

The mysterious racer you're trying to dethrone isn't even Rocket Racer, which is so insulting to older fans.

When this game leaked I remember defending the concept, and lego games in general to people. With the exact reasoning of "Lego games are feature complete, not laden with microtransations and DLC and have great cheats, unlockables and secrets". LEGO games are always a safe bet for a family friendly experience that avoids the predatory nature of modern gaming. You can let your kid play a LEGO game without being hounded to buy a new skin, or inadvertently give them a gambling addiction. 2K is literally the Draft Kings of the video game industry. This game should get me really damn excited, especially now that I have a nephew who was my age when Lego Racers dropped. But it's honestly feeling more like a brand betrayal than a game to be excited for.

Source on this? I've been trying to confirm or deny this and I can't find information on it anywhere

From what i understand, Rocket Racer is the "final boss" of LEGO racers.

Since LEGO 2k drive is NOT "LEGO racers" / "LEGO racers 3", we shouldn't be expecting the same characters. LEGO racers was from 1999. LEGO 2k drive is comming in 2023, which is more than 20 years later. Of course we are going to see some kind of modernisation with new, modern content (talking about open world, field challenges, new bricks options, detailled customisation, ...) .

And modern DLC Pass BS which is the actual issue here.

I mean I don't mind expansion passes. It just means more content for the game, instead of waiting for years for either an expansion pack if you're lucky, or a sequel if the game took off. It's battle passes I don't like, and thankfully it doesn't look like this game has it.

As for open world, it's nothing new to Lego Racers, as Lego Racers 2 was open world. Neither are field challenges, as Lego Racers 2 also had that. From what we've seen about the game so far, it pretty much is Lego Racers 3, all but in name, and of course, Rocket Racer not being here.

Oof! Probably not a good idea to bring up elements from Lego Racers 2. Last I checked those features were implemented poorly and that game is the reason there wasn’t a Lego Racers 3.
Even if nowadays there are examples of how to do these right, I’m not sure if 2K can be trusted to pull it off given their track record with other licensed sports games.
