Interactive Entertainment has announced LEGO City Undercover for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC via Steam. It will launch in spring 2017.

Interactive did not announce further details about the spring 2017-due ports. PC, PlayStation 4, Switch, Xbox One, Lego City Undercover, TT Fusion, Warner Bros. Lego City Undercover: The Chase Begins is a sandbox-style action-adventure video game developed by TT Fusion, that was released on the Nintendo 3DS in April 2013.[1] Unlike previous Lego titles developed by Traveller's Tales, which have been based on various licenses, the game is based on the Lego City brand and was published by Nintendo.
It serves as a prequel to Lego City Undercover. Set about 2 years before the events of Lego City Undercover, Chase McCain, a rookie cop working for the Lego City Police Department, has one objective in his mind: to put the most wanted man, Rex Fury, into jail. As far as story connections go, it was Chase who accidentally revealed that Natalia Kowalski, who previously worked as a news reporter turned out to be the secret witness in the Rex trial, which forced her to go under witness protection. It also outlines how Chase managed to arrest Rex Fury. Furthermore, the game reveals that Mayor Gleeson, a character also featured in Lego City Undercover, was formerly the chief of police, and how Chief Dunby was just a common officer. The game was first announced during Nintendo's press conference at E3 2011 on 7 June 2011 with the tentative name Lego City Stories. On 17 January 2013, the game was revealed to be Lego City Undercover: The Chase Begins, and that it would be a prequel to the Wii U game.
Lego City Undercover: The Chase Begins received mixed reviews with aggregate scores of 64% from GameRankings and 65/100 from Metacritic.[3] IGN gave it 6.3/10, calling it a "decent" game that is marred by "a lot of fog, a lot of loading, no voice acting and a jarring framerate". Liam Martin of Digital Spy gave the game 3 out of 5 stars, commenting on the games lack of appeal but praising the game's visuals and stating that "Unfortunately, where LEGO City Undercover referenced movies and used voice acting to great effect, hardware limitations have forced TT Fusion to keep spoken cutscenes to a minimum, something which ultimately detracts from the hilarity. Despite its flaws, LEGO City Undercover: The Chase Begins is a charming release, packed with diverse missions, mostly impressive visuals and a great cast of characters." Chris Scullion of Official Nintendo Magazine gave the game 64% out of 100, commenting on the amount of cutbacks from the Wii U sequel (Undercover), stating that "The Chase Begins has far less funnier bones than Undercover.
The silly jokes, clever spoofs and brilliant dialogue between the characters have been replaced with a handful of average cutscenes and loads of text-heavy dialogue which, while functional, are rarely amusing and never hilarious. Loading times were frustrating enough in LEGO City: Undercover but are even more infuriating here considering the game's running off a cartridge and is designed for handheld play. It's lacking visually, too. Thick fog (to hide having to render distant buildings) smothers the city and roads and pavements are far less crowded, making it feel like you're wandering around a post-apocalyptic LEGO City. The characters' faces don't move, making in-game cutscenes feel awkward and the frame rate is clunky if you're playing in 3D. It's technically impressive(ish), but not as fun or funny as the Wii U game." On 12 September 2013 Nintendo announced that the game has sold 264,000 units in North America.PSLS • News • PS4 News, Trophies, Reviews, and MoreLEGO City Undercover Announced for PS4, Xbox One, PC & Nintendo SwitchJust like ZombiU, LEGO City Undercover is making the jump from Wii U to PlayStation 4.On Twitter today, Warner Bros and LEGO announced that LEGO City Undercover is releasing in spring 2017 for PS4, Xbox One, PC, and Nintendo Switch.
