Gameplay

The game borrows from Lego Worlds, and has new additional characters and refined combat mechanics, as well as those from the first game. Worlds and characters from both films are featured in the game.[2] Players create various structures in order to access new levels.[3]

A "Galactic Adventures" DLC expansion pack was made available on April 18, 2019 featuring three levels that expand further on certain plot moments from the film, such as Future Emmet's rise to becoming Rex Dangervest and Mayhem helping out the members of the Justice League.

Development and release

It was officially announced on November 27, 2018 that The Lego Movie Videogame would be getting a sequel, just like The Lego Movie.

The game was released worldwide on February 26, 2019, two weeks after the release of The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part, for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and Microsoft Windows.[4]

Reception

On Metacritic, the Nintendo Switch version of The Lego Movie 2 Videogame has a Metascore of 56 out of 100 points, based on 9 reviews.[5]

gollark: It's not entirely marketing, there's weirdness because SOME PEOPLE don't use the right units.
gollark: I doubt it, they still need a convenient way to say "stores X bits a cell" internally.
gollark: It would have been much more sensible to use 1LC/2LC/3LC but noooo...
gollark: TLC does three bits a cell, so you get 2³ = 8 voltage levels, etc. - you trade off endurance and speed for density.
gollark: The issue with it is that the flash memory wears down in some way after a bunch of program/erase cycles, so it has trouble reading/writing accurately or something, and this is a greater problem for MLC than SLC because it has to read finer gradations.
