LEGO 76989 Horizon Zero Dawn Tallneck: a 2022 video game based LEGO set?

Everything starts from a LEGO product listed on the website of the German brand Wagners24 whose title is unambiguous: LEGO would have in its boxes a product based on the video game Horizon Zero Dawn bearing the reference 76989 Horizon Zero Dawn Tallneck. It is in any case under this name that the reference 76989 is presented on the website of the brand in question, with availability announced for May 1, 2022.

The latest rumors to date evoke the possibility of a LEGO range entirely dedicated to the world of video games, within which we would therefore find in 2022 at least the confirmed Overwatch 2 reference. 76980 titanium and possibly this second set which would be based on a successful video game including the second part, Horizon Forbidden Forest, will be available in spring 2022.

The name of the product leaves no room for doubt, it will be a question of assembling a Tallneck (Large-neck in French), these robotic creatures that allow you to obtain a map of the area in which they evolve. It is not known if the main character of the game, Aloy, will be delivered in the box.

A search on the product's EAN (5702017156491) allows you to find other resellers who have already listed this product but without the precise title posted by the German brand. the dealers in question are content for the moment with a provisional title in the form "Gaming IP - tbd-Gaming-IP-18 + -2022"which tells us at least that the set will be a reference stamped 18+.

We will have to wait for a possible leak or an official announcement to be sure.
