Lego Horizon Adventures: Build the Game’s World With Real Bricks

Get ready to experience the world of Horizon Forbidden West in a whole new way! Lego Horizon Adventures, launching this week on PS5 and PC, takes the familiar landscapes and machines of the Horizon series and reimagines them entirely out of Lego bricks.

A Lego World Built from Real Bricks

The developers at Studio Gobo went to great lengths to ensure that every element in the game, from the smallest detail to the grandest structures, is made from real Lego bricks. The game is designed to be so authentic that you could, in theory, recreate it at home with your own collection.

“Everything you come across in Lego Horizon Adventures is made entirely out of real Lego bricks, so if you have the right pieces at home, you could rebuild anything from the world, including the machines, the treasure chests, and Mother’s Heart,” explains Guerrilla’s senior community manager Anne van der Zanden.

A Fusion of Worlds

The team at Studio Gobo went to great lengths to capture the essence of the Horizon series while adapting it to the playful style of Lego games.

“We started out in a very realistic way, by rebuilding the original Old World buildings from the Horizon games,” says Guerrilla art director Roy Postma. “Then someone sneaked in an official Lego set in the background, I believe it was the Lego gas station, and we were looking at it like ‘ah this can work, this is fun!’ It totally made sense for the Old World to be our Lego world.”

A New Chapter in the Horizon Saga

While it remains to be seen if the Horizon IP will translate well into the comedic world of Lego games, Lego Horizon Adventures promises to be a unique and entertaining experience. It may even be the first in a series of family-friendly games that Sony is looking to prioritize.

If you’re a fan of the Horizon series, be sure to check out the remastered version of Horizon Zero Dawn, which brings the visuals up to the same level as Horizon Forbidden West.
