LEGO Fortnite: The Gone Fishin' Update

Players can now craft a Fishing Rod to catch various types of fish, including Green Floppers, Silver Thermal Fish, Cuddle Jelly Fish, and more! The type of fish players can catch is based on the biome and water, as well as the weather and time of day. New tools: The Spyglass and the Compass are now available to craft to help see further in the distance and add basic navigation to the HUD. Check out some of the awesome things the LEGO Fortnite community has been building in the game – a fully working plane, a full LEGO town, and a Mega village!

Rocket Racing: Speed Run Mode & More

Speed Run is an all-new mode where players can try to set the best possible lap time! It's available in public and private matches, but player collisions are turned off when playing with others. Season leaderboards and friends leaderboards are now available to compare run times with friends and drivers worldwide. The Diestro Car Body is now available in Rocket Racing and other experiences across Fortnite as part of the Diestro Car Bundle! If you already have Diestro in Rocket League, it'll be in your Fortnite Locker thanks to cross-game ownership.
