LEGO Party Launches With Crossplay and 60 Mini-Games as Early Reviews Arrive

Early reviews cast it as a skill-forward, family-friendly alternative to Mario Party.

Overview

  • The game is out now on Switch, PlayStation, Xbox and PC with cross-platform multiplayer and local co-op.
  • Roughly 60 mini-games punctuate board play on dynamic, build-as-you-go maps where players chase golden bricks.
  • Design emphasizes skill over chance, including an opening mini-game that sets turn order plus practice and voting options.
  • Customization runs deep with hundreds of minifigure parts and up to about 400 unlockables earned via in-game currency rather than microtransactions.
  • Launch reviews cite occasional control lag in joystick-heavy events, repetitive host lines and the lack of random online matchmaking.
