Lego Fortnite gets its first major update: Launch Pads, new skins on the menu

Lego Fortnite update:  Epic Games introduced Lego Fortnite in December 2023. Now, almost a month after its launch, the company has released its first major update to the game. This update brings a host of new features, new Fortnite skins and bug fixes to the game. It also brings a host of new rewards for the players.

Here is what’s new in Lego Fortnite

Launch Pad

Epic Games has introduced a new feature dubbed as Launch Pads in the game. Launch Pad, as the company explains, is a toy players can use to build to get somewhere fast. Players can use a Launch Pad to jump or even deploy a glider.

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.
