LEGO Fortnite was Epic Games\u2019 latest push for making the universe more accessible to all ages alongside Rocket Racing and Fortnite Festival. All three of which were revealed ahead of Chapter 5. The game mode follows a survival-based format and showcases structures and creatures crafted entirely in LEGO\u2019s distinctive style. Since its launch on December 7, LEGO Fortnite has garnered a substantial player base with hundreds of thousands logging in daily. Despite its initial success, the game has only recently received its first significant update. LEGO Fortnite fans \u201cdisheartened\u201d over new builds On March 7, LEGO Fortnite announced its latest addition to the game \u2013 purchasable build kits. These kids are themed around aspects that are already in Fortnite, such as Durr Burger. However, some players think that the hefty price tag isn\u2019t worth it. \u201cSad to see these items be behind a paywall,\u201d said 100 Thieves content creator CourageJD. \u201cDefinitely disappointing!\u201d Several commenters shared a common sentiment, expressing uncertainty about why Fortnite would restrict essential creative items behind purchases. Some believed that the prices might be justified if the sets were actual LEGO builds, but not when they were just virtual additions to the game. \u201cI hope the game will continue to get FREE builds in future updates,\u201d said another commenter. \u201cThis is disheartening.\u201d \u201cYou know for damn sure they won\u2019t do that,\u201d replied one commenter. \u201cThere\u2019s too much potential money in this, and with Lego Fortnite not having any quests, there\u2019s no shot of any \u201cfree for completing quests\u201d stuff that you would get with a battle pass. Lego Fortnite is ruined because of this.\u201d For those who are interested in purchasing these sets, they will hit the item shop on March 8. This will coincide with the release of Chapter 5 Season 2 which will add a new battle pass and change the map.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LEGO Fortnite players say paywall-locked builds will \u201cruin\u201d the game Epic Games, LEGOFortnite is introducing new building sets to LEGO Fortnite, but they come with a price tag of upwards of $20.
