It's official, Horizon Forbidden West will soon receive a 1,200-piece LEGO set, complete with an Aloy mini-fig and Tallneck model to build. LEGO has turned to video game worlds for sets in the past; Minecraft has been immortalized as a set more than one time, for example. And the Sonic Green Hill Zone LEGO Ideas project went on sale earlier this year in January.
Interestingly, this does not mark the first time that PlayStation and LEGO have occupied the same news item. Rumors were circulating late last year that the two companies would team up for an Uncharted 4: A Thief's End-themed kit packed with over 1,300 pieces to assemble. The rumor went so far as to hint at the inclusion of Jeep and cave models. To the chagrin of many a Nathan Drake fan, though, this rumor quickly proved fake. However, it seems PlayStation and LEGO do intend to do business together, evidenced by a recent announcement about a certain Nora huntress.

As reported by Gizmodo, a Horizon Forbidden West LEGO set will become available for purchase on May 22 for $80. The kit boasts 1,222 pieces in total, including an Aloy mini-fig with a spear, Watcher, and Horizon's docile Tallneck machines. Most notably, the latter stands 13.5 inches tall, with several other intricate details surrounding its long legs, such as a relatively small tree and rusted traffic light. In a statement about the forthcoming Horizon-themed set, LEGO Designer Isaac Snyder noted that he and LEGO worked closely with developer Guerrilla Games to truly capture the most iconic aspects of the PlayStation franchise.
