LEGO Minecraft Sets – January 2024

January 2024 is an exciting month for fans of the global bestselling sandbox video game Minecraft, with seven new sets styled on scenarios and themed areas seen in the game.

Originally developed by Mojang Studios, Minecraft was initially released in 2011 and has since become one of the best-selling video games ever. The game is known for its distinctive blocky, pixelated art style, and the virtual world perfectly translates to LEGO brick design, as seen in 2023 with a popular wave of models released.
