Rumored Racing Game Lego 2K Drive Leaks

gameranx.com:

An upcoming racing game has leaked after rumors about it were just starting to circulate online.

The game in question is Lego 2K Drive, and it is a collaboration with Lego and 2K Games.

Lego 2K Drive isn’t a total surprise. Video Games Chronicle had reported last year that 2K Games won the Lego license, with the intention to make sports and racing games with it, as opposed to the action games TT Games has made under Warner Bros.

Video Games Chronicle’s report elaborated that 2K’s first planned games were a soccer game by Sumo Digital, and a racing game by Visual Concepts. Not confirmed but hinted at is the possibility for 2K to make a Lego NBA game, as they have both licenses.

On a recent episode of the Xbox Era podcast, Nick Baker revealed the game’s title, and supported Video Games Chronicle’s findings from a year ago. Nick describes it as a kart racer with closed circuit racing. He doesn’t quite agree that it’s a full open world, but it may have a somewhat open structure to access the different game sections.

Since Nick’s podcast, NintendoLife and Tom Henderson at Inside Gaming have been able to independently verify that the game is in development, and the name Lego 2K Drive. Tom says that the game is already on closed beta. This could mean that the game is scheduled to release as soon as this holiday. At the very least, we may see an official announcement as soon as this year’s E3 season.

But now we have to cover the latest news, as shared by GameRant. Images of the game, including a logo and renders of the vehicles and in-game graphics have leaked. Because these are leaked images, we won’t be able to share them with you here, but we can discuss what other information was shared.
