PS2 may get its own LEGO set

A creative LEGO set inspired by PlayStation 2 can be officially produced after being submitted by a fan. The unique design would allow fans to construct the legendary PS2 console out of LEGO bricks, down to its controls and internal components.

First released in 2000, Sony's PlayStation 2 went on to become the best-selling game console of all time until it was dethroned by the Nintendo Switch in December 2024. Over 4,000 games would be released for the hardware during its lifetime, and the PS2 sold over 160 million units globally so far. 25 years later, the console's legacy continues to be a common topic of conversation in the gaming space, with major releases too Final Fantasy, Kingdom Heartsand Grand Theft Auto franchises on PS2 dubbed some of the best. Recently, a creative fan found a new way to show love for Sony's legendary home gaming console, and their design may eventually end up in homes all over the world.

Nintendo reveals release date for new LEGO set

Two of Nintendo's franchises and LEGO are teaming up again for several new themes to be released later in January 2025.

A post made by user RippleDrive on the LEGO Ideas website details plans for a LEGO PS2 set, which has received enough support to be officially considered by the Danish company for mass production. If released, the set would allow PlayStation fans to not only construct a PS2 console out of LEGO bricks, but also make its controllers, memory cards and internal components. In its current state, the set contains over 2,000 pieces and is close to 1:1 scale compared to the original non-slim PlayStation 2. While it's unclear if it will get Sony's approval, fans are keeping their fingers crossed that the design will appear in store shelves sometime in the future. According to RippleDrive, they chose to build the PS2 because it is their “favorite gaming console of all time” and “video game-related LEGO sets have been successful.”

User-submitted PS2 LEGO set could see official release

In 2024, many LEGO sets inspired by video games found success with builders around the world, from those inspired by Animal Crossing: New Horizons to Sonic the Hedgehog and Super Mario 64. The release of LEGO Horizon Adventures for PC, PS5 and Nintendo Switch in November also inspired a unique set featuring protagonist Aloy, her ally Varl, and fully articulated Sawtooth and Shell-Walker machines.

In recent years, the series of LEGO video games created by Traveller's Tales has found new popularity, with titles such as the iconic LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga found massive success after its initial release in 2022. While no new LEGO titles have been announced for 2025, fans are hoping to see some new crossovers, with many predicting that a new LEGO Marvel title could be on the horizon.
