LEGO Horizon Adventures Released on Multiple Platforms, Brings Co-op Fun to Zero Dawn Universe

Studio Gobo and Guerrilla Games have transformed the gritty zone of Horizon Zero Dawn into a delightful LEGO adventure. This reimagining trades the original’s somber tone for lighthearted fun while keeping the series’ signature mechanical beasts – now built entirely of virtual LEGO bricks.

Gameplay and Features

Players can embark on this brick-based journey either solo or with a friend in co-op mode. Here’s what adventurers can expect:

• Two playable characters: Aloy and Varl
• Vibrant LEGO interpretations of iconic locations
• Settlement building mechanics
• Creative combat with mechanical creatures
• Cross-platform availability on PC via Steam, Epic Games Store, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch

Mixed Reception and Future Plans

The gaming community’s response has been notably diverse, with review scores ranging from 40 to 90 points. This split reception hasn’t dampened Guerrilla Games’ ambitions – the studio is potentially expanding the franchise further, as suggested by recent job listings hinting at an upcoming Horizon MMORPG.

A Different Perspective

Unlike the original Horizon Zero Dawn, LEGO Horizon Adventures skips over darker plot elements in favor of family-friendly storytelling. The transformation of fearsome machines into LEGO constructions has been particularly praised for its creative design, proving that even post-apocalyptic worlds can sparkle with playful charm.

The game offers a fresh perspective on Aloy’s world while maintaining the core exploration and combat elements that made the original series successful. Whether you’re a long-time fan or newcomer to the franchise, this LEGO adaptation provides an accessible entry point into the Horizon universe.
