As a longtime fan of the Horizon series, I can’t help but feel like Christmas came early this year! The announcement of the LEGO Horizon Adventures Aloy & Varl vs. Shell-Walker & Sawtooth playset is just what my LEGO and Horizon-loving heart desired. I remember waiting in line for hours to get my hands on the Tallneck set back in 2022, so you can imagine my excitement when I heard about this new set!

On March 1, 2025, a fresh LEGO set based on the Horizon series is set to hit the shelves, and pre-orders are already being accepted. Building upon the success of its latest spin-off, the Horizon franchise remains a popular favorite among Sony fans, further bolstering its financial success.

2022 saw the unveiling of a LEGO set modeled after the Tallneck from Horizon, sparking immense excitement and calls for more Lego versions of the series’ machines and characters. Just days after the launch of LEGO Horizon Adventures on November 14 (available on PC, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch), it seems that fans’ wishes may soon come true as some beloved characters are slated to join players’ collections in the coming weeks.

On the PlayStation Blog, it was announced by Tim Symons, Lead Producer of Franchise Development at Guerrilla Games, that a new LEGO Horizon Adventures action figure set titled “Aloy & Varl vs. Shell-Walker & Sawtooth” will be available on March 1, 2025 for $44.99. This LEGO Horizon set, which was previously leaked, consists of 768 pieces and includes the main characters Aloy and her companion Varl, both armed and prepared to battle the menacing Shell-Walker and Sawtooth as they strive to protect their people and discover the mysteries of their world. The machines in this set have posable components, and the Shell-Walker’s cargo pod and energy shield can be removed. You can pre-order this set now at LEGO.com.

  • March 1, 2025 for $44.99 (Now available to pre-order)

The game titled “LEGO Horizon Adventures” has received a mix of positive and negative feedback. On one hand, people appreciate its vibrant visuals and engaging combat system. However, they’ve voiced concerns about the game’s repetitiveness and level design. Additionally, players are disappointed with the game’s brevity, as it’s possible to complete the main story in less than six hours. Given its price of $59.99, many feel that more content was expected. Despite not appealing to every fan of the series, those who prefer physical LEGO sets have something to anticipate in the spring.

The outlook for the Horizon series is promising, as several projects are underway right now. A job posting from Guerrilla suggests a fresh Horizon game might arrive by early 2025, potentially being the anticipated live-service multiplayer title that fans have long awaited. The developers haven’t specified when we can expect the third primary installment in the series, but many anticipate it will send Aloy across the sea to discover new lands beyond those in North America.
