Epic Games has revealed some of the highlights that will soon be introduced to Fortnite.

LEGO Fortnite

On December 7, a new mode developed in partnership with LEGO will hit the game. It will focus on creative construction with bricks and cooperation between players.

Unfortunately, we will have to wait a little longer for details. Interestingly, however, this mode is to be only the first of many joint projects between LEGO and Epic Games, as the two companies are announcing a long-term cooperation.

Rocket Racing

In turn from December 8 in Fortnite we will play Rocket Racing, a racing mode, in which we will compete with other players using jet-powered machines. This gameplay variant is expected to receive new routes on a regular basis.

Interestingly, Psyonix is responsible for the development of the project, i.e. the creators of Rocket League, so it is expected that the vehicles made available in the racing mode in Fortnite will resemble machines from the team's previous work.

Fortnite Festival

While Fortnite Festival will offer gameplay typical of music games. The project was developed by Harmonix, team known for the Rock Band series.

The first season of Fortnite Festival will launch on December 9, and more are planned. Each of them will revolve around a different artist, chosen by the developers as a so-called "music icon."
