LEGO Fortnite enthusiasts are buzzing with anticipation as leaks of the upcoming 2024 update surface, revealing a slew of additions, including new mobs, weapons, and gameplay features. Data miner Happy Power, renowned for accurate leaks, has shared insights into what players can expect from the popular block-building game.
Upcoming Peddling Traders
A significant leak suggests the introduction of Trader NPCs in LEGO Fortnite, providing players with the opportunity to trade items and resources. Three distinct trader types—Wolf, Fox, and Raccoon—will offer various goods, though the absence of a confirmed in-game currency leaves questions about the trading mechanics.
Zipline Pole
LEGO Fortnite’s upcoming update may bring a game-changing feature: the Zipline Pole. Inspired by traversal tools in games like Death Stranding, this addition allows players to craft poles and create their ziplines for faster navigation across the expansive LEGO Fortnite world.
Catapult Weapon
For players who relish using explosive barrels for structure destruction, a leaked Catapult weapon promises to be a game-changer. Craftable and loaded with destructive potential, the Catapult allows users to demolish structures from a safe distance, adding a strategic element to the gameplay.
Compass
Navigating the procedurally generated world of LEGO Fortnite has been a challenge for players, especially newcomers. Leak revelations point to a Compass item, offering players a means to navigate and identify the cardinal directions, potentially alleviating navigation woes.
Battle Royale Cannon
A classic from Fortnite Battle Royale, the Pirate Cannon, is set to make its mark in LEGO Fortnite. While crafting prerequisites exist, players can anticipate using the cannon for flying or projectile attacks, mirroring its functionality in the original Fortnite Battle Royale.
New mobs
LEGO Fortnite is gearing up for an influx of wildlife and adversaries with the addition of new mobs, including bears, bats, eagles, deer, beetles, and more. Similar to Minecraft, the expansion of the mob population aims to enhance the survival experience.
Food potions
Diversifying the food options in LEGO Fortnite, leaks suggest the inclusion of cookies, mushrooms, pies, apple juice, and more. Additionally, bonus foods with unique abilities, such as increased jump height and enhanced damage dealt to enemies, are expected to provide temporary buffs in the survival world.
Stud Gun
Among the leaked weapons is the Stud Gun, categorized as a fully automatic assault rifle. While details about its ammunition mechanics remain unclear, players can anticipate its effectiveness in survival scenarios.
Bow
Details about the Bow, codenamed “BaseBow,” remain scant at present. However, the leak indicates its potential inclusion in LEGO Fortnite, functioning similarly to bows in other survival games.
Gravity Gun
A leaked addition, the Gravity Gun, could revolutionize gameplay by enabling players to manipulate and throw objects at enemies or fellow players. If implemented, this versatile weapon could serve both combat and utility purposes, sparking creativity in the LEGO Fortnite universe.
