What's new in Fortnite?

Fortnite just dropped its new season, which is a collaboration with Marvel. It's called Absolute Doom, and focuses on Doctor Doom, with all new map POIs and weapons. There's new mythic abilities based on Captain America, Iron Man, Black Panther and more.

Lego Fortnite launched late last year, and ever since, the survival/building game has been regularly updated with new content. We've seen vehicles added, as well as a steady stream of new Outfits and items to keep players ticking over.

In many ways, Lego Fortnite is considered a separate game from the base Fortnite battle royale experience. While it may live inside Fortnite's launcher, it offers a very different experience that's more akin to a survival-crafting game like Minecraft.

Players start out with nothing and must farm resources to gradually build up their Camp, unlocking new items and technology in the process. In our initial Lego Fortnite review, we praised the game's devilishly more-ish progression loop, as well as its gorgeous open-world design.

Here's when to expect the next Lego Fortnite update, as well as some info on what was added in the most recent patch. Expect this page to be updated regularly, given how often Epic Games continues to tweak the brick-based survival game.

A set of new modes launched on June 13, 2024. Thanks to a blog post, you can see exactly what was added. You can check out the key points below:

  • Cosy Mode - Maybe you like combat, but want it to be a little easier so you can build, farm, AND feel mighty. That’s where the new Cozy mode comes in!

  • Expert Mode - Do you have what it takes to face fiercer foes? Think you can up your game against regular enemies? And above all, are you willing to take on these challenges with the risk of permanent elimination?
