The time has finally come. After such a long wait, LEGO is finally coming to Fortnite, shortly after the release of Chapter 5 season 1.
Lego and Epic are planning to bring a space for children to play, build and communicate with each other to Fortnite. And all of this is going to be much bigger than we can imagine. We have collected all the news, leaks and details about the new Fortnite x Lego crossover for you.
LEGO Fortnite: Everything We Know
Considering Lego is one of the most popular brands in the world, including them in Fortnite makes a lot of sense. Both the toy manufacturer and the video game developer would benefit.
The forthcoming collaboration appears to be another Fortnite Creative 2.0 project in the form of an open-world mode. Similar to Minecraft, you can give your creativity free rein here.
Almost every Fortnite skin will also get a new Lego version that you can use to run around in this world.
