LEGO® Fortnite fans,

Maybe you like combat, but want it to be a little easier so you can build, farm, AND feel mighty. That’s where the new Cozy mode comes in!

Perhaps for you, Survival mode was just the start. Do you have what it takes to face fiercer foes? Think you can up your game against regular enemies? And above all, are you willing to take on these challenges with the risk of permanent elimination? Test just how unbreakable you are in LEGO Fortnite’s new Expert mode!

Play Cozy and Expert when v30.10 arrives June 13.

Get Comfy in Cozy Mode[]

Whether you’re a beginner survivor or a builder who likes a little bit of thrill, Cozy mode’s up your alley! Create a world and get greeted by Slumber, a friendly face who’ll guide you through your journey step-by-step.

Cozy Mode Default Settings
Cozy mode is a nice mix of Survival and Sandbox mode. If that sounds like your thing, choose Cozy mode when creating a new world! These are the default settings if you choose Cozy mode. (They can all be changed!)

• Enemies - On
• Enemy Difficulty (new setting!) - Easy
• Storm-Wild Enemies (new setting!) - Off
• Hunger - Off
• Temperature - Off
• Stamina - Off
• Player Elimination - Respawn
• Drop Inventory Upon Elimination - Off
• Friendly Creatures - On
• Friendly Damage - Off
• Villagers - On
• Power System - Off
• Village Animals Removed On Elimination - Off

Survive a Wild World in Expert Mode[]

Storm-Wild Enemies
‘Fraid of Wild Wolves? Well now there are even wilder wolves.

In Expert mode, creatures infected by a “storm” roam with creatures who haven’t been infected. (Where did this storm come from...) These Storm-Wild enemies deal more damage, have more Health, and move faster than regular enemies. If you're not prepared to face them, running away won't be easy...

All Storm-Wild enemies:

• Storm-Wild Blaster
• Storm-Wild Bone Wolf
• Storm-Wild Brute
• Storm-Wild Frost Brute
• Storm-Wild Frost Roller
• Storm-Wild Frost Scorpion
• Storm-Wild Frost Wolf
• Storm-Wild Hermit Crab
• Storm-Wild Sand Brute
• Storm-Wild Sand Roller
• Storm-Wild Sand Scorpion
• Storm-Wild Sand Spider
• Storm-Wild Sand Wolf
• Storm-Wild Scorpion
• Storm-Wild Skeleton
• Storm-Wild Scoundrels
• Storm-Wild Spider
• Storm-Wild Stone Roller
• Storm-Wild Wild Wolf

Stronger Enemies
Regular enemies will be stronger in Expert mode than in other modes, even if they aren’t Storm-Wild! Better get those Recurve Crossbows and Longswords ready.

Perma-limination
So you’re still not scared? That’s good…

We should warn you: losing all your hearts in a world where Expert mode is on will make you permanently eliminated from that world. Got involved in a bad situation? If you have a Totem of Return equipped when you lose all your hearts, you’ll revive in your bed with your backpack. The totem will destroy itself though — a small cost for escaping permanent elimination!

Unlock the recipe for the Totem of Return by adding a Storm Core to your inventory. Get Storm Cores from Storm-Wild enemies!

Trophies for Your Bravery
Mark your survival skills with trophies in your world!

Here are the symbols of courage you can earn in Expert mode:

• Grasslands Trophy: Unlock by defeating a Storm-Wild Brute in the Grasslands, then interacting with a Level 10 Grasslands Village.
• Dry Valley Trophy: Unlock by defeating a Storm-Wild Sand Brute, then interacting with a Level 10 Dry Valley Village.
• Frostlands Trophy: Unlock by defeating a Storm-Wild Frost Brute, then interacting with a Level 10 Frostlands Village.

If you earn these trophies, you’ve truly earned them 🏆

Expert Mode Default Settings
Choose Expert mode when creating a new world! When creating a world, these are the default settings if you select Expert:

• Enemies - On (cannot be changed!)
• Enemy Difficulty (new setting!) - Hard (cannot be changed!)
• Storm-Wild Enemies (new setting!) - On (cannot be changed!)
• Hunger - On (cannot be changed!)

• Village Animals Removed On Elimination - On (cannot be changed… keep ‘em safe!)

Major Improvements, Adjustments, and Bug Fixes[]

Low Memory vs. Too Many Constructs Nearby
Before v30.10, you may have seen a “high complexity” warning in your world, limiting your ability to build. v30.10 will clarify whether this is because of low memory or too many constructs nearby.

If you get a low memory or too many constructs nearby notification, here’s how you can try continuing normal play:

• Low Memory: Try reducing overall constructs, the number of unique constructs, or items and creatures. Moving away from dense areas or exiting and re-entering the world can help too. (Note: the amount of memory available depends on the platform you’re playing on.)
• Too Many Constructs Nearby: Try spreading out constructs over larger areas. Also try using larger Building Parts rather than many smaller ones to achieve a similar result. Building in a different location or removing constructs you no longer want can also help.

More Things

• Villagers in the Rebel Village will no longer count towards the world Villager cap.
• The world Villager count in the Village Hub will display the correct number of Villagers.
• Skeletons will be less likely to spawn in Villages.
• Lava Caves on Star Wars Island will have Rubies!
• Animals will do a better job avoiding Campfires.
• Wolves learned how to swim!

There’s a storm raging over Fortnite Festival! James Hetfield, Lars Ulrich, Kirk Hammett, and Robert Trujillo from Metallica are the Icons of Season 4.

Season 4 starts June 13 with v30.10 and ends August 16, 2024, at 12 AM ET. During this time, seek and destroy your opponents on the new Battle Stage, shred to your favorite Metallica tracks on the Jam Stage and Main Stage, and unlock in-game rewards by tearing your way through the Season 4 Festival Pass.

Crank it to 11 with the Premium Reward Track, which unlocks an extra layer of rewards. Take a seat behind Lars’s TAMA Kit with Zildjian cymbals or step onto the stage with James, Lars, Kirk, and Robert’s Outfits!

Battle Stage: 16 Players Enter… Only One Will Win[]

It’s time to prove yourself on the Fortnite Festival Battle Stage! Battle your opponents across a four-song setlist to be the last one standing when the curtain comes down and it all fades to black…

Each public Battle Stage match begins with up to 16 players, all competing to get the highest score on a randomly chosen song from Festival’s featured rotation. You’ll play the same track as other players but get to choose your song part and difficulty as you riff your way to the highest score. Owned Jam Tracks cannot be selected, so no one player has an advantage. The four lowest-scoring players are eliminated at the end of each song until there’s a single victor!

Don’t worry if you hear a tune you haven’t mastered yet. You can turn the tides of battle by launching attacks on your opponents to slow their scoring and break their streak! Prepare for your attack the same way you’d launch into Overdrive on the Main Stage — play Overdrive Phases to build Overdrive and press the Attack button to throw your rivals off course while boosting your own score! The more Overdrive you hold, the longer your attack will be.

Playing accurately, maintaining your streak, and attacking at the right times is key. We've set the Bass and Mic multipliers to 4x instead of 6x on the Battle Stage, so everyone’s on an even playing field! The skill rating system in public matches, based on rounds survived and players defeated, is factored into matchmaking so you don't face off against the #1 player in the world right off the bat.

If you play Battle Stage in a private match, compete against your party of up to four! We’ll leave the setlist to you — players in a private match can choose from their shared library of owned Jam Tracks and Festival’s featured rotation.

Find the Battle Stage in Discover next to “Festival Main Stage” and “Festival Jam Stage.” This experience will stick around beyond Season 4. On the Battle Stage, nothing else matters besides victory! (and having fun)

Rip Your Way Through the Festival Pass Tab[]

Ready to show the world how hard you’re willing to rock? Find the Festival Quests for this Season by entering the Lobby of a Fortnite Festival experience (“Main Stage,” “Jam Stage,” or “Battle Stage”) and heading to the Festival Pass in the top navigation!

Season 4 Festival Pass
The harder you rock, the heavier the rewards. Complete Festival Quests to earn Festival Points that’ll help you progress in this Season’s Festival Pass.

Free Reward Track
Restore your spirit after a tough show. The Slurp Blaster Guitar is built for the blues and waiting for you as the final reward in the free reward track.

Once your blues are cured, get to practicing the free reward track’s three Jam Tracks:

• Epic Games - “S.O.M.P”
• Epic Games - “The Night Porter (Winnage)”
• Epic Games - “Dreamer”

Oh and by the way, all of your owned Jam Tracks can be equipped as Lobby Tracks starting in Fortnite v30.10! Get a good song going while the band assembles.

Songs are just one part of capturing an audience. Enthrall the crowd with thrashing Auras, including the Dark Flame Aura that’ll have your fans feeling the heat!

Keep the crowd spinning figuratively — and your Guitar literally — with the Roundhouse Emote. There’s never a wrong time for a roundhouse.

Premium Reward Track
Who says you need a backstage pass to get a behind-the-scenes look at Metallica? Purchase the Premium Reward Track upgrade for 1,800 V-Bucks and start unlocking a mountain of Metallica memorabilia!

Nothing beats stepping into the shoes of the legendary rock stars themselves. Purchasing the Premium Reward Track unlocks the Lars Ulrich Outfit immediately, while the Robert Trujillo, Kirk Hammett, and James Hetfield Outfits can be unlocked by progressing through the track.

The show’s just getting started — bring the sticks down on Lars's TAMA Kit. If you could never master the double kick and guitars are more your thing, then it’s time to shred that “Enter Sandman” solo on Kirk’s Gibson “Greeny” Les Paul!

As for what music awaits you in the Premium Pass, it’s the one and only… One!

The One Jam Track.

Please note! 🎵 The Season 4 Festival Pass’ free reward track items and Premium Reward Track items are not exclusive to the Pass, and they may become purchasable in the Shop at a later date.

Wardrobe Master! Master![]

Look fit for battle on the Battle Stage. James, Lars, Kirk, and Robert are looking fiery with “Puppet Master” Outfits available in the Shop ‘til the bell tolls for Season 4.

Shred with the best with Puppet Master Kirk, be a warrior of the wastes as Puppet Master James, be on the beat as Puppet Master Robert, and bring percussive destruction with Puppet Master Lars.

What’s more? These Jam Tracks from Metallica will also be in the Shop ‘til Season 4 ends:

• Metallica - “Enter Sandman”
• Metallica - “Fuel”
• Metallica - “Master of Puppets”
• Metallica - “Ride the Lightning”
• Metallica - “The Unforgiven”
• Metallica - “Wherever I May Roam”

Keep an ear out for more Metallica tracks throughout Season 4!

Improvements and Fixes in Season 4[]

Lobby Jammin’
Your owned Jam Tracks can be equipped as Lobby Tracks! Try adding them to your Favorites, then hit Shuffle and enjoy a different groove each time you return to the Lobby.

Gameplay Improvements
We improved Fret Forgiveness (a.k.a. “coyote time”), increasing the time allowed between when you strum a note on Pro Lead/Pro Bass and when you need to press the correct fret input. Players who felt like they did the strum and fret inputs at the same time should now get credit when they do so, even if one comes slightly before the other.

Additionally:

• We updated button bind visibility to be on by default for Pro song parts.
• Your Strum bind will be visible on the HUD. (Only one Strum bind is visible, even though you can have two different binds. The other one is visible in your settings.)
• You’ll be able to deploy Overdrive during “song breaks,” where you have extended time between notes.

Festival Questing

• Quests for the Main Stage, Jam Stage, and new Battle Stage will all share categories. Daily Quests have been updated to include all three experiences.
• You’ll be able to progress Jam Quests while Backstage when building your Main Stage setlist.
• Many Main Stage Quests such as “Hit Notes” and “Deploy Overdrive” will also be completable on the Battle Stage.

Jam Track Changes
We’ve adjusted the following Jam Track song parts:

• Doja Cat - Say So: Bass
  • Minor adjustments to improve consistency.

• Epic Games - Streets Ignite: Lead
  • Minor adjustments to improve consistency.

• Epic Games - Streets Ignite: Pro Lead
  • Fixed misplaced hammer-on and pull-off notes.

• Kelly Clarkson - Stronger (What Doesn’t Kill You): Pro Lead
  • Fixed misplaced hammer-on and pull-off notes.

• Metallica - Fuel: Pro Lead
  • Removed a couple notes in a repeating riff for consistency.

• Muse - Hysteria: Lead
  • Adjusted a measure in the solo.

• Muse - Hysteria: Pro Lead
  • Adjusted to be more consistent with Pro Bass.

• Panic! At The Disco - High Hopes: Pro Bass
  • Fixed certain hammer-ons that didn’t function as intended, and made minor adjustments.

• Rob Base & DJ EZ Rock - It Takes Two: Drums
  • Added a missing kick.

Fortnite Festival Season 4 Content Creation[]

Wanting to make Season 4 content for YouTube? This Season, content creators in the Support-A-Creator (SAC) program will be able to host VOD content on YouTube featuring the below selection of Jam Tracks (and their loops) and monetize it. Your content can also feature these Jam Tracks as Lobby Tracks!

Jam Track selection:

• Metallica - Enter Sandman
• Metallica - One
• Metallica - Ride The Lightning
• Metallica - The Unforgiven
• Metallica - Wherever I May Roam

The selection of Jam Tracks will change each week on Thursdays at 10 AM ET, so keep checking back to see what’s safe to feature in your content! No takedown notifications should occur during the Jam Track selection’s time window.

More info:

• In order to monetize your content featuring the Jam Tracks, you need to link your YouTube and Support-A-Creator accounts.
• IMPORTANT: When uploading the content to YouTube, be sure to upload it as Unlisted or Public. If you upload the video as Private, it's possible you could receive a monetization claim on your video.
• For uploading the content on other platforms, refer to the channel’s platform policies for tips on how to avoid copyright strikes.

Although unlikely, if you do receive a claim on any SAC content, there may be a short delay in YouTube processing the release of the claim. During this time, please do not dispute the claim.

Not in SAC? Don’t worry, you can still share your Fortnite Festival experiences on YouTube during Season 4 featuring the selected Jam Tracks. However, you will not be able to monetize this content on YouTube.

The general recommendation is to disable VODs/clips when streaming Fortnite Festival. For more information, see Twitch’s DMCA & Copyright FAQs help page.

The summer heat has hit Homebase, commanders, and it's time we re-enter the Blasted Badlands for a new Venture season!

Return To The Badlands[]

The Rage modifier is back! Blast through the badlands by dealing damage to fill your Rage meter, shortening ability cooldowns and increasing ability damage. But be careful, your stamina won’t refill on its own without eliminating husks! Complete Venture Challenge Quests to raise your Venture Level and unlock rewards including Jackpot Llamas, Vouchers, and Supercharger and Flux resources to boost your Homebase’s power. Also returning this Venture are the Hit The Road mode and Imposter questline!

In Hit The Road, help the heroes of Homebase groove to their song of the summer in Hit The Road by escorting them across the badlands. Escort characters with unique modifiers and keep the van vibes rollin’. You'll escort two Heroes in Hit The Road — Quinn and Crackshot — each on a journey to broadcast their Songs of the Summer. Quinn's modifier "Shields Up!" will boost your shield's regeneration, while Crackshot's "Concussive Shieldbreak" modifier will knock enemies back when your shield runs out. Hitch a ride and help broadcast Quinn and Crackshot's Songs of the Summer!

In the Impostor Questline, support everyone’s favorite burger boss-turned-Hero, Dennis, journey from survivor to warrior in Imposter. With his unique Burger Buff perk, your eliminations turn into tasty burgers for Health and Energy regen. Yum!

A New Hero Sprints Onto The Scene[]

Eternal Wanderer has arrived in the Event Store, a new speedy space scout with stamina out of the stratosphere! Sprint to make foes vulnerable and finish them off with a shot, while leaving dramatic clouds for your friends to see with this new STW hero!
Support Perk: Eat My Space Dust

• Sprint stamina is doubled.

Commander Perk: Eat My Space Dust +

• Sprint Stamina is doubled. While sprinting, leave a cloud of space dust that deals damage per second behind you. Additionally, enemies caught in the cloud have increased damage vulnerability while they are affected.

Build Into Terrain[]

Also in the Save The World v30.10 game update, you can now build into the environment terrain! Similar to the way building functions in other experiences in Fortnite you can now build structures that would partially poke into the environment, such as at the side of a rocky slope, into the roof of a cave, and more!
