Epic Games Launches "The Block" in Fortnite During The Game Awards

As The Game Awards were happening live this evening, Epic Games launched a brand new item in the middle of Fortnite. The company basically destroyed Risky Reels and put in a flat metal square space for people to play around in on a weekly basis with new content that the devs will choose. Here are the finer details and the trailer.

The Block is a new feature that will improve and evolve over time. Please report any technical issues you run into and we'll get them fixed.

To kick things off, we're going to provide a few guidelines to make the submission process smooth. Here's what we're looking for:

  • 25×25 tile area on a flat section of your island. It's very important that your creations can fit nicely on The Block.
  • Try to keep your 'Memory Used' less than 50,000.  Efficiency is just as important as creativity!
  • Chests, floor loot and vehicle spawns will be determined by Epic. No need to include these.
