Early Reviews Set Expectations for LEGO Party’s Cross-Platform Debut

Priced at $40, the party title pairs broad variety with deep avatar tools, with some testers reporting laggy controls.

Overview

  • Hands-on coverage confirms roughly 60 mini-games with four boards and four modes, board-building events, and an opening mini-game that sets turn order with fewer random swing factors than genre rivals.
  • Reviewers highlight cross-platform multiplayer and local couch co-op across Switch, PlayStation, Xbox, and PC, though one critique notes there is no random matchmaking.
  • Customization is a major focus with 46 preset minifigures available at start, up to 400 unlockable over time, and robust mix-and-match avatar creation without microtransactions.
  • Feedback on feel is mixed as one review flags laggy, joystick-heavy controls and repetitive commentator lines while others praise the mini-game lineup’s accessibility and consistency.
  • Value positioning is a theme at a $40 price point compared with costlier competitors, with one pre-release review on Switch rating the game 3.5 out of 5.
