If you want to find out more, then here's everything you need to know about Lego Fortnite Brick Life.
How to get started in Lego Fortnite Brick Life
You'll be able to get started in Lego Fortnite Brick Life when this experience launches on Thursday December 12 at 6am PST / 9am EST / 2pm GMT, though you can already find it on the main Discover menu and favorite it. Once it goes live at that time, you can select it from this screen to jump in solo or with a friend in couch co-op, then meet with up to 31 other players once you connect. Although it won't affect your progress in Brick Life, you should make sure you link your Lego account to Fortnite if you haven't done so already to unlock the Mr Dappermint and Explorer Emilie Outfits for free.
