LEGO Fortnite players uncover huge hidden changes in 28.20 update

One LEGO Fortnite player has revealed that Epic Games has missed out some massive updates from their official v28.20 patch notes, including a Fridge Chest and much easier ways to get your Brightcore.

With Fortnite’s groundbreaking LEGO Fortnite mode having been out for over two months, players have constantly called out for fresh content to be added.

The survival-crafting game’s first major update came with the v28.10 update. This vastly improved the gameplay, in particular for building, as well as fixed various bugs and even introduced Launch Pads as a new Building Part Toy to play with.

Now, Epic Games has followed up with v28.20 on February 7, 2024. It brought along an array of changes, and the star of the show this time was the Hunting Dagger weapon joining.

However, players have already been finding various other changes that have been implemented that weren’t included in the official patch notes. A player has now summarised these, so here is everything you need to know.

Here is all the missed changes and additions from the 28.20 LEGO Fortnite patch notes:
