LEGO Teases Brand New Theme Announcement for LEGO Con 2022

May 31, 2022 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

LEGO has released another teaser for LEGO Con 2022 and this time, it is for something big and out of this world. The video also shows a brand new theme that will be launching this year. All signs are pointing towards LEGO Avatar: The Way of Water as the official Avatar Twitter account already teased it a few weeks ago but LEGO has never posted about it until now. I’ll be very surprised if it is something totally different but I wouldn’t hold my breath.

Spoiler alert. Something big and out of this world is coming to LEGO® CON 2022. Tell no one.

Watch the livestream on 18 June 2022, 5pm London, 12pm New York, 9am Los Angeles. #LEGOCON pic.twitter.com/9V8o9HqbqQ
