The PC and PlayStation©2 versions have been developed by Attention to
Detail (ATD) a leading UK developer. LEGO Racers 2 builds on the winning
structure of the original title, adding a story-based adventure scenario
whereby players race to improve their skills and their cars in an effort
to take on Rocket Racer! A new game engine has been added, producing
stunning graphics, and racers will explore all-new LEGO worlds based on
popular play themes.
LEGO Racers 2 picks up where LEGO Racers ends - Rocket Racer has been
beaten and has gone away to practice his racing skills. He ends up on
the planet Xalax, where he meets the Ramas, small car-crazy alien
creatures based on the all-new collectible LEGO Racers line of play
materials. The Ramas love to race around the planet and in the Dome -
a huge racing arena. Reluctant to admit defeat, Rocket Racer issues a
new challenge to find the best racer in the galaxy, summoning the
greatest racers of all time to the Dome for the Galactic Racing
Championship. Players must prove their driving skills in four different
worlds to qualify for the ultimate race on planet Xalax.
You will discover new key features as they race their way to the
championship. Just as in the original title - and because it's LEGO -
players first must build their car and mini-figure driver using virtual
LEGO elements. What's more, improved destructability causes cars and
scenery to break into individual LEGO bricks on impact! Bricks can be
regained during a pit stop, but if players lose all the bricks on their
car, they'll have to make their way to the pit on foot!
Half the fun of LEGO Racers 2 is in exploring the four new worlds,
based on new and popular LEGO play themes - Life on Mars, Adventurers:
Dino Island, Arctic and City Center. Each world has a "boss" racer for
players to beat, and each boss has a unique vehicle to reflect his or
her world. 24 new tracks combine to form a network of roads in the
racing worlds, and some have movable barriers that form different
courses. Realistic weather conditions also contribute to the creation
of exciting racing environments instead of just linear tracks.
An improved power-up system helps racers along the way, in addition to
an all-new Golden Brick system, awarded to players as they win races in
the various LEGO worlds. Golden Bricks also may be picked up along the
course, and as players collect enough, they advance to the next LEGO
world. As players win races within the worlds, they gain access to
exciting new bonus levels.
