PlayStation has just revealed a brand-new line of collectible action figures featuring characters from its biggest games. This line of highly detailed figurines features fan-favorite PlayStation protagonists from Ghost of Tsushima, Horizon Forbidden West, and God of War Ragnarok.

PlayStation Studios is renowned for its exclusive cinematic single-player experiences. However, Sony’s long dedication to exclusivity has often placed many of these epic stories out of the reach of gamers on other platforms. Thankfully, this era of the console wars appears to be nearing its end, with recent PC ports of first-party PlayStation titles such as Ghost of Tsushima, Horizon, and God of War proving extremely successful. With more gamers than ever invested in these captivating narratives and their indomitable heroes, PlayStation has announced that a new surprise is just around the corner.

A new PlayStation blog post has just revealed "The Shapes Collection," a new range of highly detailed and customizable 6-inch action figures which is scheduled to be released on August 15, 2024. Fans will soon be able to decorate their gaming rooms with their favorite characters from some of PlayStation's best single-player games, including Aloy and Varl from Horizon: Forbidden West, Kratos and Atreus from God of War Ragnarok, and Ghost of Tsushima’s shadowy fallen samurai, Jin Sakai. The figures will be manufactured by Canadian toy maker Spin Master, who has previously produced action figures from franchises such as How to Train Your Dragon and the DC Universe.

Details of all the Five New Collectible PlayStation Figurines

• Aloy, Horizon: Forbidden West, $49.99: Deluxe 6" figure with 42 points of articulation and 12 accessories including interchangable weapons, hands, and faceplates.
• Varl, Horizon: Forbidden West, $29.99: Collectible 6" figure with 32 points of articulation, two handsets, and his formidable axe.
• Kratos, God of War Ragnarok, $29.99: Collectible 6" figure with 31 points of articulation, Leviathan Axe, Blades of Chaos, and more.
• Atreus, God of War Ragnarok: $29.99: Collectible 6" figure with 33 points of articulation, bow, arrow, and interchangeable hands for various poses.
• Jin Sakai, Ghost of Tsushima, $29.99: Collectible 6" figure with 32 points of articulation, katana, tanto, mempo mask, and additional sword.

Priced at $49.99, Aloy’s deluxe collector’s grade 6-inch figurine is the collection’s flagship model and comes bundled with 15 accessories and a staggering 42 points of articulation. Fans can recreate Horizon’s photo mode in real life by customizing Aloy’s pose, weapons, and even her expressions with six different hands and five different faceplates to choose from. PlayStation Studios developers worked closely with Spin Master to ensure the models accurately portray the characters as they appear in-game. Speaking about the high-quality figures, Arno Schmitz, the lead character artist at Guerrilla Games, revealed that “they are based on the actual digital sculpts used for the game, something you can really see in the final result.” Later this year, Aloy will also appear in an entirely unexpected form in LEGO Horizon Adventures.

The other figurines may not be as versatile and customizable as Aloy, but fans of Jin, Kratos, Atreus, and Varl will still be able to enjoy their quality collectibles at a slightly cheaper price point. Costing $29.99, these other figurines feature between 24 and 34 points of articulation and include two to four accessories. Jason Connell, the creative director at Sucker Punch, commented on the recreation of Jin's iconic armor from Ghost of Tsushima, stating that “Jin’s Ghost armor has so many beautiful details, including intricate fabric patterns and overlapping armor plates that are integral to the design of his character.” The figurines are currently available to pre-order on Amazon US and the PlayStation Gear website, where fans can find all sorts of PlayStation memorabilia and merchandise.
