If you’re ready to jump into the world of LEGO Fortnite, you can do just that when it launches on December 7, 2023. There is no confirmed time for the release of this particular mode, but we can only assume that it will take place during the early morning hours of the day when hotfixes and patches are normally deployed. This means that LEGO Fortnite may be available as soon as the following times:

  • 3:00 AM ET
  • 2:00 AM CT
  • 12:00 AM PT

How Can I Play LEGO Fortnite?

You may be wondering if this is a completely new game or something housed within Fortnite itself. If you’re hoping to play LEGO Fortnite, you won’t need to worry about downloading a separate game, as the game itself is playable directly through the standard Fortnite application on your console of choice, mobile device, or PC.

Yes, this means that players on any system, even Nintendo Switch and Mobile devices, can access this particular game mode. I was a bit worried at first that these lower-spec devices may not have had the chance to participate in the LEGO fun, but it appears that Epic is doing everything it can to ensure that every player can join in. You’ll even be able to use the majority of your favorite skins in this mode.

You can find it by searching under games created by Epic within Fortnite, or use the following Island Code to jump into this new world:

  • 9999-0000-1000

What Is The LEGO Fortnite Mode?

According to the description posted on the LEGO Fortnite trailer:

Explore vast, open worlds where the magic of LEGO building and Fortnite collide! Collect food and resources, craft items, build shelter, and battle enemies solo or team up with up to seven friends. Get creative in building and customizing your ultimate home base using LEGO elements collected from the world around you, then recruit villagers to gather materials and help survive the night. Gear up and drop into deep caves in search of rare resources and hidden areas.

So it appears that LEGO Fortnite is going to be more of a survival game, compared to the standard battle royale that we’ve been playing for all of these years. Playable in both Solo mode and Co-Op, we can expect to run into a variety of different enemies, build bases and buildings, and so much more.
