LEGO Fortnite was quite a surprise for players at the end of 2023, so in just a few days, it became very popular. It is not surprising since this sandbox survival game has an open world, various characters, enemies, and pleasant, branded LEGO graphics. In addition, the developers are not going to stop there and are preparing even more content, and you are probably wondering when to expect the next LEGO Fortnite update.

It is worth noting that the developers have not yet officially announced the dates of the next update. The same applies to the content and changes that will be added to the game. Fortunately, nothing can be hidden from data miners.

Next LEGO Fortnite update release date

A week after the game was released, the developers updated the game where, at the request of players, they increased the durability of tools and weapons. Therefore, we are confident that we should not expect big updates until the end of the year. Instead, you should expect the next LEGO Fortnite update sometime at the end of January or in February 2024. Also, the developers can please players with new content after the end of Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1, which falls on the beginning of March 2024. But much more is known about the content than about the dates.

What should you expect in the next LEGO Fortnite update?

Data miner iFireMonkey found information about upcoming content, and it looks like the title will become several times larger.

Let's start with the fact that the LEGO Fortnite fauna will be replenished with new animals and creatures. It is not yet known whether they will all be added or divided into several updates. But they will definitely make survival more diverse. There will be a bunch of new faces in the game, including;

  • Fox: Food Vendor
  • Raccoon: Treasure Vendor

It is not yet known exactly how trading will work in the game. But we assume that this will be a barter system similar to what vendors use in Minecraft. In addition, with the next updates, many new NPCs will appear in LEGO Fortnite. Here is a list of all released and upcoming characters:
