‘Lego City Undercover’ to be re-released on new platforms

Lego City Undercover will be making its way to more consoles in the “Spring of 2017.” The game, which originally launched as a Wii U exclusive back in March 2013, is going to be re-released on the Nintendo Switch, PC, Microsoft Xbox One, and Sony PlayStation 4. Lego claims the game is both a “re-release” and a “remastered” version but it won’t say yet if it’s a direct port or if there will be improvements to be made. Lego City Undercover is unlike other Lego video games as it is based on an original story where you’re left to play as undercover police officer Chase McCain.
