Good news for fans of LEGO and the Animal Crossing: New Horizons video game on Nintendo Switch! The next free game update, available from January 15, 2026, will allow players to enjoy LEGO items that can be used to furnish their homes with brick-based furniture and wallpaper.

So the cycle is complete: we already had LEGO Animal Crossing sets, we'll have LEGO in the Animal Crossing game, and we'll undoubtedly have LEGO Animal Crossing sets based on the LEGO available in the Animal Crossing video game. Simple, effective, the marketing loop is unstoppable.

LEGO took advantage of Gamescom 2025, currently taking place in Cologne, Germany, to announce the LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight video game, and the manufacturer logically went all out with a stand dedicated to this game, planned for 2026.

Visitors can try out the game, enjoy the decorations with giant minifigures and a life-size Batmobile, and get a small souvenir of their visit to the stand.

Let's not get carried away, no collector's set or exclusive minifig, we know that LEGO has really calmed down on this subject in recent years, those who have spent two hours in the queue to enjoy the proposed animation simply leave with the pretty "collector's" bag that you can discover below. It's always better than nothing.
