LEGO 2K Drive will combine the best elements of open-world driving and fast-paced competitive racing, while introducing a diverse vehicle customization system.
Additionally, a collaboration with supercar and hypercar company McLaren Automotive will bring the McLaren Solus GT and McLaren F1 LM – just released in a LEGO Speed Champions double-pack set to help celebrate 60 years since McLaren was founded by racer and engineer Bruce McLaren – to the world of Bricklandia, as the cover cars perfectly encapsulate the thrilling, high-octane experience fans can expect in LEGO 2K Drive.

A 3v3 online multiplayer mode that can also be played in 1v1 local splitscreen, the skirmishes push players to wreck an opponent's vehicle, while hosting matchings in unique arenas that are full of destructive Power-Ups, criss-crossing pathways, and obstacles that players can use to their advantage.
- Ranked Multiplayer Online Modes arrived as an addition to the Play with Everyone online multiplayer modes**. The Race and Brick Brawl modes allow for Ranked competition, and you can queue for them in a party of up to three players online.
