Epic Games is about to unleash two incredibly exciting updates for LEGO Fortnite. The first arrives tomorrow, and is a complete overhaul with a new title, LEGO Fortnite Odyssey, and a host of new content.
The second, and possibly more exciting update, is basically LEGO Grand Theft Auto. It goes by the title Brick Life, and it features a whole city to explore in a wide variety of vehicles, and activities everywhere you look.
LEGO Fortnite Odyssey arrives tomorrow, December 10, while Brick Life launches on December 12. Let’s take a look at everything we know about both updates.
What’s LEGO Fortnite Odyssey?
If you’d just like to know at a glance, here’s all of the new content that LEGO Fortnite Odyssey includes:
- Biome
- Dungeons
- Enemies
- Items
- The Storm King boss
Judging from the teaser trailer above, there’s a lot going on in LEGO Fortnite Odyssey. It begins with a bunch of LEGO characters carrying a range of different weapons as they explore a new biome.
The action then swaps to a farming mode, complete with tractors, animals, and crops. We then see a pirate ship, mountains, and them some eerie, creepy forest.
It’s then all about Star Wars, and suddenly we’re in a fort. It’s, quite frankly, all over the place.
The trailer ends with the crux of the new update though: a new villain, a purple storm-themed wasteland to explore, and a bunch of creepy new villains.
The denizens of LEGO Fortnite take up arms to combat these new enemies, ending with a showdown with the new villain, The Storm King himself.
Dive into LEGO Fortnite Odyssey tomorrow, December 10.
What About Brick Tales?
Brick Tales is like a full-blown Grand Theft Auto-style mode within LEGO Fortnite. It lets you live a whole second life within a LEGO city called Brick Bay.
The teaser trailer above begins by showcasing a wide variety of vehicles to get around in, including bikes and fancy cars. Of course, you could always walk.
We then move onto a range of activities you can perform. You can work out in the gym, perform a full-blown bank heist, or build your own home. If you fancy yourself as something of an interior decorator, you can design the inside of your home too.
Then, it gets a little weird. There’s a disco, then a haunted house, and a beach you can lounge on. You can play pranks on your friends or ride around on a hoverboard.
We’ll learn more about Brick Tales when it launches on December 12.
