Online support boosts Outer Wilds Hearthean’s Ship to 10,000 LEGO Ideas supporters 

LEGO Ideas fan designer SuperSirLink has created the Hearthean’s Ship from Outer Wilds, and after a few high-profile tweets the project has reached 10,000 supporters.

Outer Wilds, developed by Mobius Digital and game publisher Annapurna Interactive, has been widely praised for capturing the experience of exploring in a way that allows the player to learn about the lore in a way that doesn’t seem exhausting. 

The LEGO Ideas Hearthean’s Ship project is a recreation of the ship that the player uses in Outer Wilds to explore the solar system, travelling to planets that can reveal different puzzles and information depending on the time of the day in-game. 

The ship itself in this LEGO Ideas project has been designed to carefully match the experience of the game, with removable side pods and console. As well as having the versatility of removable parts, the spaceship also comes with the reactor core, a computer log system, a small antigravity crystal, and shelves for gear to be placed on.

The Hearthean’s Ship was first put onto LEGO Ideas on August 6, 2021, and Mobius Digital first tweeted about the project in 2022, and again just yesterday to try and boost support and gain the last 200 supporters needed for the project to go to the review phase. Annapurna Interactive did the same, and when the project did reach 10,000 supporters they thanked everyone for supporting ‘the fan-driven idea’.

The model now becomes the 53rd project in the first LEGO Ideas 2023 review, and is in contention to become an official LEGO set available for purchase. We’ll find out whether it’s been given the green light later this year.
