Only announced a few days before its release, LEGO Fortnite Brick Life made fans very interested but also curious to know what it will be all about. This article will tell players what to expect from LEGO Fortnite Brick Life.

What Is LEGO Fortnite Brick Life?

While players have been able to build a base, explore, collect resources, and craft in LEGO Fortnite Odyssey, it was mostly about surviving. LEGO Fortnite Brick Life wants players to focus on the social aspect of Fortnite.

In LEGO Fortnite Brick Life, players will inhabit Brick Bay, where they'll be able to get a job, buy a home and furniture to decorate it, and most importantly, socialize with its residents and make friends. Gamers will be able to engage in all sorts of fun activities in Brick Bay, such as going to restaurants, parties, and clubs, trying various professions to earn money and make a living, and getting to know fellow gamers with the handy text chat feature.
