And I don’t see an issue with the comparison. It’s pretty much just Minecraft in a lot of ways.

Gear up and drop into deep caves in search of rare resources, hidden areas and enemies.

Build shelter for defense and customize your ultimate home base, then recruit villagers to gather materials and help them survive the night.

Collect food and resources, craft items, and battle enemies solo or with friends.

Play as some of your favorite Fortnite characters, like Brite Bomber, Cuddle Team Leader and Raven – but in LEGO Style.

In its simplest terms, here’s how the game mode will work. LEGO Fortnite is focused around building out our own world – by yourself or with up to 11 other friends at a time. The LEGO Group has been calling it a survival crafting game, and now we know what exactly that means. Some skins and cosmetics will carry over between the usual one versus 99 multiplayer action, but the actual gameplay is entirely new. The new game mode is now live inside of the main Fortnite launcher, and is an entirely separate experience.

If you thought that LEGO Fortnite was just going to be a reskined version of the battle royale title, then there’s a lot to go over today.
