Nintendo have announced that Lego City Undercover: The Chase Begins, a Nintendo 3DS exclusive title is set to be launched to the system on the 27th April 2013 in Australia and New Zealand at the very least. The handheld title puts the action of Lego City into the palms of players’ hands allowing for portable exploration as Chase McCain.
Developed by TT Games, LEGO CITY Undercover: The Chase Begins is a prequel to the upcoming Wii U title and stars Chase McCain as a rookie cop on his first exciting adventure in Lego City. Explore a city full of LEGO bustling with wacky characters, brought to life on your Nintendo 3DS, and learn the ropes of police work with Chase McCain, donning disguises for special skills when solving missions and fighting crime on the city’s streets. You can call up your Scanner from the Touch Screen and move your Nintendo 3DS, utilising the motion sensors, to analyse the Lego City environment for audio or visual clues. On your first job as a cop you encounter the crime kingpin Rex Fury and it’s your mission to put him behind bars!
While a prequel to the Wii U edition, it is set to launch after the Wii U release which is set to appear in retail stores and on the Nintendo eShop from the 28th March.
