A brick-built version of the original PlayStation console may be on the horizon, offering fans a nostalgic building experience. Reports indicate that Lego is planning to release a set based on Sony’s iconic 1994 gaming system later this year, adding to a growing collection of retro gaming recreations from the toy company.
The potential Lego PlayStation set was first leaked by Instagram user lego_minecraft_goat, a source with a track record of accurately revealing upcoming Lego releases. The user claims the set, numbered potentially as 1911, will include the console itself and at least one controller, and will be available in December for $159.99.
This wouldn’t be Lego’s first foray into the world of classic gaming hardware. In 2020, the company released a highly detailed Lego Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) set, complete with a buildable controller and a miniature television displaying Super Mario Bros. The NES set, comprised of 2,646 pieces, quickly became a favorite among Lego and gaming enthusiasts. More recently, in 2023, Lego released a 421-piece recreation of the original Game Boy, further demonstrating their commitment to bringing beloved gaming consoles to life in brick form. Gamespot first reported on the leak.
The leaked PlayStation set is expected to contain 1,911 pieces, placing it in size between the Lego Atari 2600 (2,532 pieces) and the Lego NES (2,646 pieces). Dexerto reports that details regarding any additional features or interactive elements included with the set remain unknown at this time.
A Nostalgic Appeal
The original PlayStation holds a special place in the hearts of many gamers, introducing millions to franchises like Final Fantasy, Metal Gear Solid, and Resident Evil. Sony’s decision to recreate the original PlayStation’s design for the PS5 30th Anniversary bundles highlights the enduring popularity of the console, with limited-edition versions quickly selling out due to high demand. The Lego set taps into this nostalgia, offering fans a unique way to celebrate the console that revolutionized the gaming landscape.
Interestingly, a fan-created concept for a Lego PlayStation 1 was already submitted to Lego’s official Ideas platform in January 2026, demonstrating existing community interest in such a product. The Lego Ideas program allows fans to submit their own designs, with the potential for them to be officially produced by Lego if they receive enough support.
Expanding Lego’s Gaming Universe
Lego has been actively expanding its presence in the gaming world beyond console recreations. The company has collaborated with Sony on figures from Horizon Forbidden West and the Lego Horizon Adventures game. They also maintain a strong partnership with Nintendo, offering a range of sets based on the Mario franchise, including figure sets and Mario Kart builds. GameRant notes that new Mario minifigures are slated for release in 2027.
The reported Lego PlayStation set is currently {unconfirmed} by both Lego and Sony. However, given the leaker’s previous accuracy and the growing trend of retro gaming-themed Lego sets, the prospect of building a brick-built PlayStation appears increasingly likely.
As of March 11, 2026, Lego has not officially commented on the reported set. Fans eager to add a PlayStation to their Lego collection will likely be watching for official announcements from Lego and Sony in the coming months. The December release window, if accurate, suggests a potential holiday gift for gamers and Lego enthusiasts alike.
