Fortnite and LEGO have teamed up for an epic collab that’s sure to have you building memories (and maybe even some real LEGO sets). Dive into a brand new open-world map, deck yourself in LEGO-themed skins, and you may even be able to recreate your Fortnite adventures with real bricks in the near future.

Chapter 4 Season OG has officially come to a close with the conclusion of The Big Bang event on December 2. The event started by blowing up the current ‘OG’ map before taking the player through some upcoming game modes. One of which is the highly anticipated collaboration with LEGO.

The LEGO collab was first leaked through the Big Bang countdown on the game’s main screen. In the top left corner of the screen, a LEGO Loot Llama can be seen swirling around in a galaxy. This was the first ‘official’ teaser for the collaboration.

Now that the event has ended, here is everything we know about Fortnite x LEGO collab.

The main focus of the LEGO Fortnite collaboration is the new open-world game mode. In this mode, players must build their way through the crafting survival adventure.

LEGO Fortnite skins

According to LEGO Fortnite X account, over 1,200 outfits in Fortnite will receive a LEGO style at launch of the game mode. Players will be able to choose from one of their outfits for its own LEGO style.

Moreover, you’ll also be able to see which Item Shop skins features a LEGO style, before you buy it. However, Epic Games has now posted on X that they have currently added only 317 detailed LEGO styles for skins as they plan to add more in the coming months.

While you wait for those to come out, there’s a free LEGO skin that you can grab at launch by following a few steps.

Fortnite LEGO sets

There is some speculation surrounding the release of actual Fortnite LEGO sets to come with the collaboration. Although like the Fortnite skins, nothing has been confirmed. The speculation comes from a tweet from the official LEGO account which has a picture of a Loot Llama that has been built out of LEGO pieces. However, this could also have just been a teaser for the upcoming game mode.
