On January 12, 2026, The LEGO Group and The Pokémon Company International announced their first collection of LEGO Pokémon building sets, available for preorder immediately and scheduled for release on February 27, 2026, at LEGO.com, the Pokémon Center, LEGO Stores, and certified retailers. To celebrate the launch, fans can participate in a digital scavenger hunt from January 12 to February 27, solving puzzles to uncover hidden LEGO Pokémon clues and unlock rewards. The initial sets allow fans to build and display Pikachu, Eevee, Venusaur, Charizard, and Blastoise in LEGO form: The LEGO Pokémon Pikachu and Pokéball set (2,050 pieces) features Pikachu emerging from a Pokéball. The set includes a base displaying “25” to match Pikachu’s Pokédex number and allows for posing Pikachu in either an attacking stance or seated with the Pokéball closed. The LEGO Pokémon Venusaur, Charizard, and Blastoise set (6,838 pieces) enables builders to display each Pokémon individually or together on bases inspired by their respective environments. All three figures feature multiple points of articulation. The LEGO Pokémon Eevee set (587 pieces) allows for adjustable head, tail, and limb positions. Builders can also collaborate using the Build Together app.

In Case You Missed It

In an unexpected turn of events, Xbox has found itself in uncharted territory with its worst annual sales ever recorded in the UK market, a historic collapse analyzed by Marcus Thompson in his recent piece “Xbox Endures Historic Collapse in UK with Worst Annual Sales Ever” Xbox Endures Historic Collapse in UK with Worst Annual Sales Ever. While the overall hardware market saw decline, Xbox’s performance was particularly alarming, leaving PlayStation 5’s milder 12% decrease looking almost favorable by comparison. Meanwhile, in other gaming news, we’ve recently come across an insightful piece by Jonathan Dubinski published on January 2nd, 2026, revealing that Elder Scrolls Online leader Matt Firor departed ZeniMax Online Studios after nearly two decades due to disagreements with Microsoft’s restructuring decisions, particularly the cancellation of Project Blackbird Elder Scrolls Online Leader Departs Due to Microsoft. And in another surprising turn, Marcus Thompson’s article “Before Release, Sandfall Believed Clair Obscur Would Score Just 80 on Metacritic” Before Release, Sandfall Believed Clair Obscur Would Score Just 80 on Metacritic shares that Sandfall Interactive initially had much humbler expectations for Clair Obscur: Expedition 33’s Metacritic score, projecting just 80 points before release.
