Fortnite, a widely acclaimed video game with over 400 million registered players, has integrated Lego into its gameplay, emphasizing crafting as a fundamental aspect of its online shooting experience.The newly introduced survival mode in Fortnite adopts Lego bricks as the crafting medium, drawing clear inspiration from the monumental success of Minecraft, the best-selling block-building game in history.
This fresh game mode is accessible through Fortnite’s various platforms – PC, PlayStation, Xbox, and Switch – offering a free-to-play experience to its user base.While Fortnite offers multiple game modes, its battle royale format, engaging up to 100 players in a fight for survival, reigns as the most popular among them.
Contrarily, Minecraft thrives as a survival-focused game, enabling players to construct intricate structures and fashion tools and weaponry.Initially, Fortnite included a crafting survival mode named Fortnite: Save the World before its renowned battle royale mode took center stage.The overwhelming success of Fortnite: Battle Royale, influenced by Japanese cinema and PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, overshadowed the game’s other modes. Consequently, Fortnite became synonymous with an online shooter enriched by crafting elements.
This collaboration signals Fortnite’s return to its foundational aspects, yet the partnership with Lego transcends a mere aesthetic upgrade.
