Nintendo Unveils Lego City Undercover
Update: Screens added
Nintendo showed a new Lego game that does not take advantage of an outside license.
It looks like a open-world title where you take on the role of a police officer solving crimes, like some kind of Lego Noire. You will be running down crooks in the street, wearing disguises, and using the Wii U controller to scan for clues.
The action looked all over the place in the best way. There was kung-fu combat, Prince of Persia style platforming, and there was even what appeared to be a skydiving sequence.
It looks like the game will retain that Lego sense of humor that we have seen in more recent Lego titles.
Nintendo said a portable version is in the works, but didn’t offer any other details.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
