Minecraft Lego announced by Mojang

5 December 2011

In many ways, Minecraft is a lot like a big open-world digital Lego box, so it seems fitting that it should be converted and released in the form of an actual Lego box.

And that is exactly what’s happening, according to Mojang.

The official announcement was made on the Lego Cuusoo webpage.

“Seeing LEGO Minecraft sets is also our dream, so we linked to one of the projects. It’s clear to us that there are many creative people with good ideas for this and we want to throw our own hat into the ring and start this project to bring the best LEGO Minecraft builders together,” reads the official release.

“We are working directly with Lego to make this happen,” tweeted Mojang spokesperson Daniel Kaplan.

It is difficult to say whether the Minecraft Lego range will make its way to SA. We have fired off an e-mail to a local Lego reseller and are investigating the possibility of local distribution.
