Fans got excited over rumors some months ago, and now it's official. LEGO will be releasing special sets for Horizon Forbidden West.
Horizon Forbidden West, the sequel to 2017 Horizon: Zero Dawn, is set to release on February 18, 2022. The new action role-playing game is hotly anticipated and Horizon Forbidden West has already passed some incredible sales milestones. Now, developer Guerilla Games is collaborating with LEGO to offer fans a unique collector's item; a LEGO Horizon: Forbidden West Tallneck set.
Fans of Horizon Zero Dawn will remember the Tallneck is a titanic machine that towers over the surrounding landscape. The LEGO Horizon Forbidden West set will include 1,222 pieces when it releases on May 22. The set retails for $80, and it contains an impressive Tallneck, an Aloy minifigure, and a few other machines. Also, the base of the model has beautiful scenery, including foliage and derelict lampposts. This stunning LEGO set offers fans famous characters in miniature form, but Horizon Forbidden West has plenty of new characters waiting for players, too.
LEGO has released several awesome game tie-in sets. Fans of the Danish building blocks can find many franchise highlights, from highly detailed Halo Warthog vehicles to adorable LEGO Super Mario. With the release of the upcoming Horizon Forbidden West Tallneck set, it seems that the company is continuing with these collaborations, which is great news for gamers and LEGO fans alike. LEGO is collaborating with a number of non gaming franchises as well, and will be releasing a set which recreates the famous Jurassic Park T-Rex scene.
That's not all from Horizon: Forbidden West developer Guerilla Games. Horizon Forbidden West recently received an exciting cinematic trailer ahead of launch. Fans everywhere have a lot to be excited over. The previous entry to the series, Horizon Zero Dawn, is considered by some to be one of PlayStation's best exclusives. Developer Guerrilla Games made a brave decision to move away from the Killzone franchise, swapping FPS for Horizon's open-world action. It proved a critical and commercial success.
There's plenty more for fans awaiting Horizon Forbidden West, however, be forewarned of spoilers. Gamers looking to get ahead of the pack will likely have seen the Horizon Forbidden West trophy list is out, but it contains big spoilers.
Horizon: Forbidden West is available on February 18, 2022, on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5.
