Epic Video games is continuous its quest to make Fortnite an all the pieces sport, because it publicizes Lego Fortnite and extra.
Earlier this week, the launch of Fortnite Chapter 5 introduced with it Stable Snake, Peter Griffin, and Eminem within the sport’s first dwell occasion in nearly a yr. It ended with the sport’s OG Island being sucked right into a black gap once more (even when Epic has promised it plans to convey it again subsequent yr), however the largest bulletins have been a trio of latest video games all playable inside Fortnite itself: Lego Fortnite, which seems to be to be… effectively, Fortnite, however all the pieces’s made out of Lego, Rocket Racing, which sure, does have a connection to Rocket League, and Fortnite Pageant, a rhythm sport that followers of Guitar Hero will discover one thing acquainted in.
As detailed by Epic, Lego Fortnite is “the last word survival crafting LEGO journey. It introduces huge, open worlds the place the magic of LEGO constructing and Fortnite collide. Designed for individuals of all ages to get pleasure from collectively, the sport will encourage creativity, experimentation and collaboration by play.” This’ll be the primary new “digital play expertise” that gamers will be capable of check out, because it’s arriving in-game subsequent week, December 7. Plus, over 1200 of your outfits could have a Lego model of them, although collab costumes do not seem to have been confirmed but.
Rocket Racing is “a supersonic arcade racer the place gamers drift, fly, and increase with associates by an ever-growing number of tracks.” This one’s really being developed by Rocket League developer Psyonix, and you can leap into this one December 8. Lastly, Fortnite Pageant is a “new music sport the place gamers can play in a band with associates or carry out solo on stage with hit music by their favorite artists,” and is made by Rock Band developer Harmonix, out there December 9.
Personally, I discover Epic’s ambitions to make Fortnite a sport for everybody somewhat bit terrifying, although I’m curious to see the way it pans out. You do should marvel if Lego Fortnite is to alleviate considerations over the sport’s youthful viewers members, however I doubt it will cease all of them from persevering with to chug jugs.
