Sep 27, 2017  From a performance perspective, LEGO Worlds is definitely not a showcase of the Switch’s capabilities. Docked or undocked, the draw distance occasionally calls to. The chance to explore other worlds and go where no LEGO Astronaut (or Intergalactic Girl) has gone before is a welcome one, and LEGO Worlds is a game that’s lofty creative ambition is clear. I’d argue that it is the perfect fit for Nintendo Switch, seeing that you can create at home or on the move, but inconsistency still continues to cast.

Lego Worlds is a Lego-themed sandbox game developed by Traveller's Tales and published by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment. The game allows players to build constructions in a 3Dprocedurally generated world. A beta version of the game was released on 1 June 2015 on Steam Early Access. It was released on 7 March 2017 for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. A version for Nintendo Switch was released on 5 September 2017 in North America and 8 September 2017 in Europe.

A variety of vehicles, such as helicopters, and creatures are featured in the game. A multiplayer option and features for world-sharing have been added to the game through later updates.^[3]

Microsoft pinball for windows 10. Lego Worlds has long been announced for Nintendo Switch, although it has always lacked firm details on its release.

PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One editions of the game got a physical release back in March. Before that, the game was playable via Steam Early Access since June 2015.

A mix of Minecraft, the defunct Lego Universe and other sandbox games, Worlds has come a long way over the past few years. But will it tear you away from Minecraft: Switch Edition, with cross-network play on the way for that?
