LEGO® Sets and Gaming: A Match Made In Pixelated Heaven

If you love gaming, you probably love LEGO® sets, too. So, the obvious thing to do is combine your two passions. Are LEGO sets and gaming a match made in pixilated heaven? We certainly think so, and the crossover between the world of LEGO play and gaming has been around for a while.

Let's take a look at which direction this perfect partnership is taking and how Fortnite, in particular, is making a big impression on the world of LEGO sets.

Classic ‘90s games get the LEGO play treatment

LEGO toys have always had a close association with the gaming industry. One look at our sets will take you from the heady days of PAC-MAN™ and Sonic the Hedgehog to Fortnite®. You'll find well-loved characters in many LEGO sets, including Mario and Princess Peach from Super Mario™ to Donkey Kong!

These LEGO tie-in sets aim to expand players' opportunities to engage more personally with the characters.

LEGO sets linked to computer games allow younger players to join in, too, giving them a 3D world to explore and discover. They can take characters that they're familiar with from gaming and create their own adventures. The LEGO gaming sets cover all of the best-known and loved games, from Minecraft® and Super Mario™ to Animal Crossing™ and BrickHeadz for younger players.

But let's take a more in-depth look at one particular phenomenon that’s taken the gaming and LEGO games world by storm – LEGO Fortnite.

LEGO play and Fortnite® – the ultimate gaming match-up

Fortnite burst onto the gaming scene in 2017, and quickly became one of the biggest games in the world. Today, Fortnite offers a variety of games and experiences that have made it popular among all age groups, including the first play experience from the Epic Games and The Lego Group partnership, LEGO Fortnite – a survival crafting game inside Fortnite.

Some of LEGO Fortnite’s most recognisable characters have been reproduced as LEGO sets and Minifigures to tie in with the game itself, introducing a whole new generation of players to the Fortnite world.

Some of Fortnite’s much-loved icons can be found LEGO Style in LEGO Fortnite, including Durrr Burger, Peely Bone and the unpredictable Supply Llama. There's also the famous Battle Bus, on of the most iconic vehicles in the Fortnite world.
