Launched last December, LEGO Fortnite brings gamers an exciting new way to play Epic Games’ ever-expanding title. Combining the creative freedom of previous LEGO titles and Minecraft, this game mode brings a break from the typical chaos of Fortnite’s Battle Royale mode.
Since its launch, LEGO and Fortnite have made it a point to expand the game with new scenarios and modes. However, the game mode’s most crucial is all set to drop on August 6th, 2024, which will truly revolutionize how we play and experience LEGO Fortnite.
LEGO Fortnite is Finally Getting The Most Essential Features
Brick by brick, we’ve witnessed Fortnite steadily improving the LEGO game mode since its arrival, but traveling long distances and dealing with night-time ambushes from skeletons has always been challenging, though not for much longer.
Epic Games has finally announced the Battle Bus update for the game mode, which will finally introduce the highly-requested fast-travel feature. The developers previously hinted at the update through an X/Twitter post, which showcased a bus station with in-game characters waiting to hop onto the Battle Bus.

The update will include A LOT of LEGO content, including the Battle Bus, sleep until morning, toys, and more! pic.twitter.com/2cOgAZvv1w
It’s mind-boggling how it took Epic Games so long to add such an essential feature to the game that’s all about exploration and survival. If any other developer dropped the ball like this, their game would’ve collapsed entirely.
Good things it’s epic, if any other game took this long to add such basic features it would be dead already

Providing one of the biggest quality-of-life improvements, which the community has been desperate for, is surely a huge boost. Now, it’s time for Epic Games to carry this momentum and finally give us the ability to share designs for our custom builds in LEGO Fortnite!
LEGO Fortnite’s Next Update is Packed With Content
The upcoming Fortnite update will not only bring fast travel to the game mode but also the much-anticipated option to sleep till morning. Just like in Minecraft, this feature will allow players to rest their LEGO Fortnite beds throughout the night, allowing them to skip over the deadly nighttime environment while exploring landscapes entirely.
The developers revealed that the update brings more toys for players to utilize in the game mode for added fun! Items such as Thrusters and Activation Switch allow gamers to craft things such as planes and cars. The introduction of additional toys opens up even more possibilities for players to create unique designs that could help them survive.
Most likely, we’re going to see even more content for the game. While it’s not clear what it could entail, it will be revealed to players as we get closer to August 6th, 2024.
Lastly, we can’t forget about the Fortnite roadmap leak, which hinted at a Klombo update. While we still don’t know anything about Klombo making it to the LEGO game mode, there’s a chance that Epic Games might add the files related to the update with the upcoming patch.
Do you think Epic Games and LEGO need to add any other basic features added to the game mode? If so, let us know in the comments.
