Launching on December 10th within LEGO Fortnite will be a major game update for LEGO Fortnite Odyssey, the new name for LEGO Fortnite, the original survival crafting game that launched in December 2023. This new update will introduce all-new areas to explore, enemies to overcome and gameplay features.

LEGO Fortnite to Become Home to All LEGO Experiences in Fortnite

From December 10th when players head into the Discover page in Fortnite, LEGO Fortnite will now be its own category within Fortnite.

The new LEGO Fortnite brings together all LEGO content within Fortnite as a centralised destination of family-friendly play experiences, including LEGO Group-made and creator-made LEGO Fortnite Islands. This change demonstrates the LEGO Group and Epic Games’ commitment to delivering on their long-term partnership vision.

Become a Hero in LEGO Fortnite Odyssey

With the hub name refresh, the survival crafting game that was previously called LEGO Fortnite will have a major game update and now be called LEGO® Fortnite Odyssey from December 10th onwards.

In LEGO Fortnite Odyssey, The Storm King has thundered onto the scene in the survival mode’s latest update: Storm Chasers! With his storm-wild legion, led by Raven, The Storm King has everything he needs to complete his sinister quest to consume all. It’s up to you and your friends to stop him!

Become a hero and set out on an all-new adventure in LEGO Fortnite Odyssey. Find the Storm Chaser Village, meet new friends, and build up the strength to take down an electrifying new evil. As you go about your journey, you’ll explore shocking Storms, battle all-new foes, brave perilous dungeons, and build powerful new weapons using improved crafting mechanics.

Updates Rolling Out From Tomorrow Onwards

This week’s launches are the latest to come from the long-term partnership between Epic Games and the LEGO Group to develop fun and safe digital spaces for children and families. In addition to the launch of LEGO Fortnite last December, the two released LEGO elements and tools to Fortnite creators in March 2024, expanding the offering of LEGO content in Fortnite and encouraging creativity, experimentation and collaboration through play.

Remi Marcelli, SVP and Head of LEGO GAME at the LEGO Group, commented: “One year on from our unveiling of LEGO Fortnite, these launches reflect the LEGO Group and Epic Games’ ongoing commitment to continuing to bring even more varied and diverse play experiences to players of all ages. We’re sure that players are going to love the new adventures and ways to play as these updates bring to life a number of new dimensions of LEGO play on Fortnite.”
