LEGO Minecraft Rumoured January 2026 Sets

The LEGO Minecraft theme has had another busy year in 2025, releasing sets to coincide with the record-breaking A Minecraft Movie and launching the theme's first LEGO Advent Calendar. In 2026, we can expect another adventure-packed 12 months for the video game-based theme with a total of 16 sets reportedly releasing, including eight of these launching on the 1st of January 2026, which are all covered in this article...

21583 Steve's Taiga Adventure

Our first set is the standard entry-level set with 21583 Steve's Taiga Adventure retailing for $9.99 / €9.99 / £8.99. As the name suggests, the 79-piece model will recreate a very small section of the Taiga biome, most likely similar to 2020's 21162 The Taiga Adventure, which included just five fewer pieces. Steve will obviously be included as a Minifigure along with hopefully one or two mobs, including the likes of a Wolf and a Zombie, for example.

Set Name - Steve's Taiga Adventure

Set Number - 21583

Age Range - 6+

Piece Count - 79

Price - $9.99 / €9.99 / £8.99

Release Date - 1st January 2026

21584 Nether Journey and End Portal

21584 feels like a two-in-one adventure, split between two dimensions. The 7+ model only includes 192 pieces retailing for $14.99 / €14.99 / £12.99, so it won't be a very big or detailed build. This suggests to us that 21684 may include the option to build either a Nether Portal / section of Nether terrain or build an End Portal, basically acting as a 2-in-1 set similar to those seen in the LEGO DREAMZzz theme.

Set Name - Nether Journey and End Portal

Set Number - 21584

Age Range - 7+

Piece Count - 192

Price - $14.99 / €14.99 / £12.99

Release Date - 1st January 2026

21585 The Chicken Farm

21585 The Chicken Farm looks to build on the success of A Minecraft Movie and the popular 'Chicken Jockey' scene. This time, 233 pieces will be used to recreate a small farm and brick-built coop perfect for multiple brick-built LEGO Minecraft chickens. A small play feature, such as a nesting box that can drop eggs into a collection tray, may also be included, similar to the feature included in 2018's 21140 The Chicken Coop.

Set Name - The Chicken Farm

Set Number - 21585

Age Range - 7+

Piece Count - 233

Price - $19.99 / €19.99 / £17.99

Release Date - 1st January 2026

21586 The Pale Garden

One of Minecraft's newest biomes will be recreated in brick-built LEGO form with 21586 The Pale Garden, which includes 243 pieces retailing for $19.99 / €19.99 / £17.99. The 7+ build will be a very unique and interesting set for the theme, as it recreates the monochromatic colour scheme and aesthetic inspired by horror films seen in the in-game biome. The Creaking is one of many creatures that inhabit the Pale Garden and is expected to appear in this 2026 model.

Set Name - The Pale Garden

Set Number - 21586

Age Range - 7+

Piece Count - 243

Price - $19.99 / €19.99 / £17.99

Release Date - 1st January 2026

21587 The Zombie Dungeon

21587 The Zombie Dungeon is a classic LEGO Minecraft build, likely recreating a cobblestone and mossy-brick dungeon swarming with Zombies. At the centre of the brick-built dungeon, we can expect a return of the mob spawner build, along with a baby Zombie and a normal Zombie. A player/hero LEGO Minifigure will also likely be included in the 284-piece build.

Set Name - The Zombie Dungeon

Set Number - 21587

Age Range - 8+

Piece Count - 284

Price - $29.99 / €29.99 / £24.99

Release Date - 1st January 2026

21588 The Fox

We've seen plenty of brick-built mob houses in the LEGO Minecraft theme, and we may possibly be getting another one in 2026 with 21588 The Fox. The 497-piece build may be a much larger version of 21178 The Fox Lodge, which recreated a sleeping baby Fox as a small in-game house. Retailing for $44.99 / €44.99 / £39.99, we can expect multiple fox mobs, a hostile mob and a new skin Minifigure.

Set Name - The Fox

Set Number - 21588

Age Range - 10+

Piece Count - 497

Price - $44.99 / €44.99 / £39.99

Release Date - 1st January 2026

21589 Mini Biomes

The most interesting and possibly most creative set of the wave is likely to be the 12+ model of 21589 Mini Biomes. With 797 pieces retailing for $59.99 / €59.99 / £54.99, we're expecting the 2026 set to include a collection of micro-scale Minecraft biomes, similar to the first LEGO Minecraft sets originally released under the LEGO Ideas theme. Being micro-scale, we expect no Minifigures, but hopefully some iconic mobs creatively built in the smallest of LEGO forms.

Set Name - Mini Biomes

Set Number - 21589

Age Range - 12+

Piece Count - 797

Price - $59.99 / €59.99 / £54.99

Release Date - 1st January 2026

21590 Wither Battle

Last but not least is the most expensive set of the wave and the most action-packed: 21590 Wither Battle. The 8+ set will likely feature a large, brick-built Wither as its centre piece, complete with a poseable head and a launching mechanism. The brick-built battlefield might include soul sand terrain, obsidian pillars and TNT blocks with the usual exploding play features. A couple of Minifigures and mobs will also be included in the $65 2026 set.

Set Name - Wither Battle

Set Number - 21590

Age Range - 8+

Piece Count - 494

Price - $64.99 / €64.99 / £54.99

Release Date - 1st January 2026
