Affairs Cindy Gordon said the company hears from many parents who want to give their child a way to relax.
"It's a great way to ease the transition before school starts, and to take away the stress and anxiety that comes with starting back to class," she said. "And parents like the opportunity for kids to unwind from school and explore their imagination through play." Note: deals still apply if you are an adult not going back to school who still wants to explore their imagination through play.Punch "LEGO" into the search bar on the right hand side and you'll quickly be greeted with more than 20 titles available between Xbox One and Xbox 360. But, believe it or not, that's not all of the LEGO games that exist in the world. Publisher WB Games has announced the formerly Wii U exclusive LEGO CITY Undercover will be making its way to Xbox One next year.Undercover follows a police officer, Chase McCain, as he goes undercover to try to bring down the game's bad guy, Rex Fury. Players have a closet full of disguises at their disposal, including robber, miner, farmer, construction worker and fireman, to help maintain their secret identity.
As a LEGO police officer, Chase is skilled at hand-to-hand combat, platforming and free-running. The gameplay of Undercover is often compared to that of the Grand Theft Auto series, but with a lightheartedness familiar to LEGO fans. It was reviewed favorably by many publications and holds an 80% on Metacritic with an 8.2 average user score.Since it was a former Wii U title, it will be interesting to see if the developers change much of the design. The Wii U game pad tablet was used as the player's map, communicator, and scanning device, so these functions will have to be reintegrated back into a regular controller. Hopefully we can expect some of the problems that plagued the original, like long load times, to be relieved in its newer counterpart.We'll just have to see when LEGO CITY Undercover launches on Xbox One in spring 2017. Warner Bros. Interactive anunció hoy oficialmente que LEGO City Undercover llegará a PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch y PC vía Steam. El lanzamiento de esta entrega tendrá lugar en la primavera de 2017.
LEGO City Undercover debutó originalmente en Nintendo Wii U, un juego de aventura y de mundo abierto que llegó al mercado en marzo de 2013. En esta entrega, los jugadores deberán tomar el rol de un policía encubierto llamado Chase McCain. Lamentablemente, Warner no ha informado mucho más sobre estos ports; por ejemplo, no sabemos si las nuevas versiones del juego tendrán alguna mejora técnica o si serán añadidos nuevos contenidos.
