For our money the adjusted engine and graphics are an improvement, with better textures and far superior lighting we're not talking top of the line visuals, but it's a step up. The other big changes are on the surface, with the visuals getting an overhaul for the current generation interestingly some that watched our comparison footage preferred the lighter and more playful Wii U look.
In 2013 much was made of the GamePad as integral to the game, but in practice it's not a major loss. You now use the D-Pad (or the left Joy-Con's equivalent of it) to answer calls and they pop up on the TV, and there's a map screen along with 'scanning' on the TV. That's gone, of course, though Chase still has his tablet in truth the second screen isn't really missed here. The big change here on Switch, though, is the ditching of dual-screen play - in the original Chase had an in-game tablet that looked awfully similar to the GamePad, and the second screen was a rather charming always-on display. Generally, though, our hero Chase McCain moves pretty well, and it can also be fun experimenting with different vehicles in the game, some that handle beautifully and others like a three-wheeled trolley. Controls are accessible and mostly fine, but sometimes platforming and the camera can be more awkward that they should be we've made this complaint about most LEGO games, so it's obviously no different with this re-release. Like pretty much every LEGO game, including the most recent ones, gameplay is simple and also occasionally fiddly.

The story can satisfy as the full experience, but for those happy to spend dozens of hours then 'completing' the game fully, it's also one big tutorial in teaching you the various ways to play. As such the game pushes and prods you to progress the dozen-hour story in order to access and see new areas, unlock abilities and collect the currencies that you'll need later on to complete various 'Super Builds' and more. Many of the world's secrets and extras, though, will only be accessible once you unlock the various costumes to delight cosplay fans among us - you'll be a fireman, astronaut and more. Like any LEGO game there are three core tasks - unlock abilities, smash everything in sight and hoard stubs and bricks like a shut-in with a penchant for small cat ornaments.

Car time trials, free run courses and basic puzzles are scattered around the city in dizzying numbers. There's not much 'emergent' gameplay going on, but as you progress through the story and unlock more abilities all sorts of landmarks and challenges pop up. In truth some of the gameplay loops and approaches to this sizeable world are a little creaky now, as the genre has moved on in the past few years, but even today LEGO City is a huge and rather fun place to mess about. It wasn't the first entry to dabble in open-world mechanics, but it was certainly on a whole new scale and level of ambition.
