Exciting news for LEGO Fortnite fans! Recent leaks suggest a new update called “Atom” could bring user-made creative maps and even potential monetization options to the game.
LEGO Fortnite: User-Made Maps and Monetization on the Horizon?
While leaks should always be taken with a grain of salt until official confirmation, this particular one holds weight due to the involvement of ShiinaBR and Hypex, two well-respected figures in the Fortnite community.
Here’s what the leaks reveal:
- Players could soon “publish LEGO maps and apparently make money with them.” While specifics on monetization are unclear, the leak mentions needing to understand “revenue rules” before submitting a map. This potentially points towards integration with the Unreal Engine for Fortnite program, which allows players to utilize the engine to create maps and potentially earn revenue through it.
- The “Atom” update would open the editor to LEGO Fortnite, letting players build from “existing LEGO pieces/sets or custom imported ones.” This opens up a vast library of creative possibilities.
- New collaborations with various LEGO sets are also rumored. Action Figures, Duplo, Technic, and many others are mentioned, hinting at a diverse range of potential building blocks.
While the lack of concrete details and a confirmed release date leave room for caution, these leaks paint a picture of an exciting potential future for LEGO Fortnite. User-generated content could significantly expand the available experiences and keep players engaged for even longer.
It’s important to remember that these are still leaks, and official confirmation from Epic Games is necessary before anything is set in stone. Nevertheless, this news undoubtedly stirs anticipation among LEGO Fortnite fans who crave fresh content and creative freedom.
