The highly anticipated LEGO Fortnite has received its first gameplay trailer alongside its launch today, December 7.
The trailer, below, reveals how the brick-building gameplay blends with Fortnite's battle royale. The trailer didn't show any player versus player action though, instead focusing on the building, survival, and cooperative elements.
The mode appears to be exactly what it says on the tin: Fortnite gameplay in a LEGO style. LEGO minifigure skins explore the Fortnite map, destroying trees and boulders to gain resources to then build as normal, except in the style of LEGO bricks.
Building takes on a more permanent role in the mode, however, with various intricate and extravagant models being shown off in the trailer. Survival elements featured too, as players will seemingly be left bricking it as night falls and all sorts of spooky beasties appear.
Wolves, skeletons, and angry dragon-looking bosses all appear in the trailer, all made up of LEGO bricks. Even Fortnite's iconic loot llama makes an appearance in the LEGO style.
The gameplay trailer blurb offers more details: "Explore vast, open worlds where the magic of LEGO building and Fortnite collide. Collect food and resources, craft items, build shelter and battle enemies solo or team up with up to seven friends.
"Get creative in building and customizing your ultimate home base using LEGO elements collected from the world around you, then recruit villagers to gather materials and help survive the night. Gear up and drop into deep caves in search of rare resources and hidden areas.
"Find the ultimate survival crafting LEGO adventure in Fortnite! The journey is only just beginning with new world building, gameplay features, and more LEGO Style Outfits
