Changes

Epic Games has also made changes to the gameplay in Lego Fortnite. The company in a blog wrote that placing a build will now remove any small bushes, rocks, or plants that are in the way, and that users will be able to pick from a variety of sizes for floors, walls, and roofs. The company has also added more snap points to Building Parts so that they lock together easily in the Snap Mode.

Talking about the villages, Bushranger, Rustler, and Tomatohead can now appear as potential villagers and villages can now be instantly removed with the “Delete Village” option in the Village Square. Players can also remove a village by getting rid of their bed and then asking them to leave.

New styles and outfits

With v28.10 update, Epic Games has also released a host of new styles and outfits for the Lego Fortnite players. Here’s the detailed list:

Styles: Ahsoka Tano, Finn, Jack Skellington, Loki Laufeyson, Scarlet Witch, Spider-Man, Star-Lord Outfit, Thanos and Wolverine.

Outfits: Cosmic Infinity, Crusher, Ex, FFC Sparkplug, Khari, Love Ranger, Skully, Snowfoot and Stoneheart.

Gameplay updates

Epic Games has also rolled out updates to the gameplay. These updates will let players eat while moving, ping locations in a world, let villagers open doors, and fried eggs take time to eat. Additionally, players will be able to remove shared worlds from their ‘Shared Worlds’ list, adjust UI screen on mobile, and access ‘All Items’ menu in the Sandbox Mode easily to name a few.
