LEGO Fortnite Player Creates Massive Castle

gamerant.com:

A talented LEGO Fortnite player is receiving attention from hundreds of other fans due to their impressively massive castle build. The imposing structure, which is filled with plenty of subtle and clever details, is just the latest example of the architectural ingenuity LEGO Fortnite players have exhibited since the surprisingly popular mode's launch.

LEGO Fortnite officially launched in December 2023, marking a major milestone in Fortnite's diversification of game modes. An open world survival game mode, which features a heavy emphasis on crafting, was released around the same time as several other significant modes. These include Rocket Racing, an arcade racer from Rocket League devs, and FortniteFestival, a rhythm music game sharing DNA with the Rock Band franchise. Despite launching just a bit over two months ago, a recent Epic Games survey hints that LEGO Fortnite mods and DLC may soon be on the way.

The massive castle build comes from a Reddit user named Haskyns, who posted their impressive work on one of the site's primary LEGO Fortnite pages. The series of images showcases the medieval building from a variety of angles and lighting, first showing the front of the castle and then moving throughout its various areas, which include plenty of walkways and candlelit walls. Fans of the castle have mentioned the castle's western bridge in particular, which features LEGO knight statues on its columns. One player commented that they even mistook the castle for prominent Fortnite Chapter 4 POI Brutal Bastion.

LEGO Fortnite players also lauded the castle architect for crafting the build-limit building in Survival mode as opposed to Sandbox mode — where resources are unlimited — and in the unforgiving Frostlands biome, no less. While the humongous castle is certainly an impressive creation, it isn't the first one from Haskyns to get noticed. Just days ago, the player was on the receiving end of lots of admiration for their equally impressive Mesa village in LEGO Fortnite.
