How to get Lego Fortnite when it comes out on December 7th
Players are very excited about the prospect of Lego Fortnite, as they look forward to embarking on a survival crafting adventure and other experiences with Minifig characters within Fortnite. So much so, in fact, that some are looking for ways to get their hands on those Lego Styles for their Outfits before the official launch date, which is coming up soon in Fortnite Chapter 5. If you’re eager to get started, here’s the lowdown on when Lego Fortnite will be released and what the status of early access is.
The first of three brand-new game mode expansions launching this week is Lego Fortnite, which will be available on December 7. When it goes live on that date, you’ll be able to access it directly from the main Fortnite lobby, just like you do with the current game modes. At that point, you’ll be able to equip Lego Styles for your existing Outfits for use in all Lego experiences in Fortnite, and over 1,200 Minifig versions of Outfits will be available at launch. Set up your Fortnite Lego Insiders account link to unlock the special Explorer Emilie Outfit when Lego Fortnite goes live, then go grab the free Fortnite Banana Emote code as well.
Unfortunately, no Lego Fortnite experiences are available before the game’s December 7 release date, and there is no official early access program in place.
However, some players have discovered an unofficial method of accessing Lego Styles for Outfits in the Fortnite lobby, which involves either using a Discord bot to add the Lego playlist to your account or joining another player’s lobby that has the playlist unlocked and favoriting it from there. However, by doing so, you risk having your Epic Games account banned for accessing content before it is officially released, and while you can view the Lego Styles in the lobby, you can’t actually play any Lego Fortnite experiences until the official release date, so my advice is to avoid this and wait until the official release date.
