2021 LEGO Sets
In 2021, LEGO continued its expansion and innovation, introducing new digital-physical hybrid experiences while reinforcing its commitment to sustainability. One of the most notable additions was LEGO VIDIYO, a collaboration with Universal Music Group, designed to let users create digital music videos using augmented reality (AR) and LEGO BeatBits. The theme blended physical collectible minifigures with app-based interaction, but despite its unique concept, it was short-lived and later discontinued due to low engagement.
