Lego Ninjago characters: a ninja running along a red wall in a city

Want to know about the Lego Ninjago characters in the video game? Well, read on! One of the many successes Lego has had is Ninjago. Introduced in 2011, there’s been a Lego Ninjago TV show, movie, and game. So, as you can imagine, there’s a heck of a lot of characters. Really, Lego games have exploded in the last decade or so. The mid-noughties Star Wars games kicked it all off, and since then we’ve seen an endless stream of intellectual properties molded into the blocky shapes that Lego is known for.

Lloyd Garmadon

As the leader of the Secret Ninja Force, Lloyd has a lot of pressure on his shoulders. Still, he shrugs it off with aplomb, leading his team with compassion. He has lots of different outfits to choose from. You can get him masked or unmasked, in his high school outfit, in his classic get-up, with a hoodie, or even in his Kendo look. The final character unlock is Lloyd in the Gold Ninja skin.
