  • Since its launch in January 2011, LEGO® NINJAGO® has become the LEGO Group’s longest-running homegrown entertainment IP and a prominent evergreen toy line
  • The 15th anniversary year will bring epic storytelling, creative and fun LEGO sets, exclusive collaborations, and immersive real-life experiences to fans

Billund, Denmark, 14 January 2026: As LEGO® NINJAGO® marks its 15th anniversary, the LEGO Group is thrilled to tease and unveil a year of epic celebrations, special edition LEGO sets, new stories to enjoy, unexpected collaborations including new partnerships, new digital adventures in Fortnite, and in-person events that will unite fans old and new in the spirit of the ninja lore.

When LEGO NINJAGO debuted in January 2011, it went beyond a typical product launch. After 18 months of research, it transformed a simple ninja concept into a dynamic universe rich with powerful characters, immersive storytelling, and innovative playsets. The pilot season of the LEGO NINJAGO series in 2011 captivated audiences, prompting the team to expand the series further. The journey continued with the launch of the Ninjago movie in 2017 and entered a new era in 2023 with merged realms and source dragons.

The plan was for NINJAGO to run for a few years, but 15 years later the homegrown entertainment IP is still going strong and has a major fanbase across age groups. In fact, NINJAGO has one of the largest fandoms in the LEGO brand. The stories about teamwork, mastering, development and unlocking true potential have been consistent throughout the years in the TV series and products, and in 2026, the adventure will reach new heights.

Nigel Kong, Head of Product at the LEGO Group said: “As we celebrate 15 years of LEGO NINJAGO, we’re incredibly proud of how this universe has developed and inspired creativity, resilience, and adventure for fans around the world. We are also endlessly thankful for our fan community, who continues to engage with the Ninjago universe. This anniversary is not just a celebration for us, it’s for our fan community – whether a lifelong or new fan, now is the time to Go Full Ninja! 2026 marks the beginning of an exciting new era for the franchise.”

Ninjago as the first homegrown LEGO IP to be featured in LEGO Fortnite
Ninjago entered the LEGO Fortnite world for the very first time last month, inviting players to experience what it means to Master their True Potential in the digital world. The launch introduced a major content update for LEGO Fortnite Odyssey including a brand-new LEGO NINJAGO Island for fans to explore. It also transformed iconic Ninjago characters into life-size battle-ready forms within the popular Fortnite Battle Royale, complemented by Ninjago-themed Emotes in the Fortnite Shop. This is just the start of bringing fans of both Ninjago and Fortnite together, as the story continues in a second NINJAGO update in 2026!

LEGO NINJAGO Family Boardgame coming
To further celebrate the anniversary, the LEGO Group and Asmodee are launching a new cooperative family board game, called Ninjago Destiny’s Bounty Adventures. This collaboration offers fans and families a new way to connect and enjoy the Ninjago universe together. The game is designed to bring friends and families together and lets players team up as Ninjas to defend the iconic ship Destiny’s Bounty from a host of villains. The game will be available globally from July 30, 2026.
