They all aid you in tracking and catching criminals in various ways. It’s much the same controls and interaction as any regular open world Lego game, but there are some tweaks and additions that help Undercover stand out.Ĭhase’s tools and abilities are an important addition in this regard, lending to the feeling of TT’s lighthearted skewering of cop-based drama. This protocol sees you learning about Chase’s various crime fighting abilities and tools. The TT way of mocking and poking fun at pop culture references is alive and well though, almost immediately after you begin, the game is already having a sly dig by gleefully lampooning GTA IV’s intro scene set to ‘Walkin’ on Sunshine’, you’re introduced to the ‘protocol’ you’ll need to follow for solving crimes and busting perps in your hunt to recapture your nemesis. Lego City Undercover is a rarity in that it isn’t beholden to a license, so TT gets to go freeform with a template that is essentially ‘’Lego does crime procedural does GTA’’. That character is Chase McCain, a disgraced cop brought back into the fold to catch a master criminal he put behind bars once before.

You play as a singular character in Lego City Undercover, rather than choosing from a wide selection as in other Lego games.
