The Lego Fortnite game mode was released in December last year, providing players with an open world to explore with crafting and surviving elements. The mode was an instant hit and recorded around 2.5 million concurrent players in less than four days of its release, more than the base game.
Epic Games has released several updates and has brought new things to the game mode to keep it interesting for players, including the Star Wars characters and Spider-Man’s Fortnite-exclusive Spider-Man Zero costume. The latest Lego update is here, and it could be a big one for the mode.
Lego Fortnite Update Brings New Kits and Styles
The new season, Myths & Mortals, was also released on March 8 in the game, and Epic Games has also released the v29.00 update that adds new kit bundles and styles and more quality-of-life improvements to the sandbox game mode. The newest additions include the Lego kits in the Item Shop that players can use to decorate the world with new buildings and other decor items.
These include the “iconic OG Fortnite locations” and “iconic LEGO Building Sets.” The first kit bundle is the Beachside Boulevard Bundle, which costs 1,900 V-Bucks. It comes with kits featuring 7 builds and 44 decor items. Next is the Durrr Burger Bundle, which costs 2,000 V-bucks and includes kits with 3 builds and 41 decor items.
Another bundle called The Lion Knights’ Castle is coming to the Item Shop on March 16 and will be available for 2,500 V-Bucks. The bundles feature kits with 10 builds and 64 decor items. This will all be available in the Build Menu of the game mode after purchase and can be used to decorate the worlds for both the players and their friends.
The Update Also Fixes Bugs and Brings QoL Improvements
Several new outfits in the game are also getting the Lego style, including the Beach Bomber, Brite Agent, Burnout, Chomp Sr, Hime, Marshmello, Maven, Spider Knight, Toxic Trooper, and Vertex. Players can also now display the legendary fish that they caught with the latest update.
Several improvements have been made gameplay-wise. The issue where constructs were breaking unexpectedly is now “less likely,” and the developers are working on this issue, including the constructs in the caves. The wheel attachments will also not teleport and damage the constructs, and the issue of players teleporting while getting up from a chair is fixed.
The villagers assigned to the Loom will not give incorrect resources, and they can also follow players on the stairs now. General crashes while exiting caves are less likely to happen now. The issue where players were able to open the crafting menu while upgrading the crafting bench has been fixed with the v29.00 Fortnite update.
The new update is now available in the game mode, and all the new items can be purchased via the item shop. What are your thoughts about this new update? Let us know in the comments below.
