Lego is rolling out a fresh wave of gaming-themed sets this June, with more than a dozen new builds hitting shelves. The lineup pulls heavily from popular digital worlds, including Fortnite, Minecraft, and a few surprises from classic arcade titles. For fans of blocky brick builds, this month offers a mix of large display pieces and smaller, affordable kits.
The Fortnite collection expands with a new Battle Bus model that includes a rotating propeller and a detachable roof, letting you recreate the iconic drop sequence. There is also a compact Loot Llama set, which opens up to reveal a tiny stash of weapons and shields. Over on the Minecraft side, Lego is releasing a deep cave biome set with a working minecart track and a glow squid figure that uses a new translucent brick. A smaller Nether portal build comes with a piglin and a zombie piglin, both designed in the classic minifigure style.
Beyond the big two, Lego is tapping into retro gaming with a Pac-Man maze set. It features a crank mechanism that moves the ghost figures along a track, plus a light-up cherry power-up. Another set based on Sonic the Hedgehog includes a loop-de-loop section and a spinning Eggman mech. Prices range from 15 dollars for the smallest Minecraft pack to 120 dollars for the Fortnite Battle Bus. All sets are available now on Lego's official site and at major retailers.
