Fortnite has been consistently supported with regular and meaty content updates for years at this point, but last week, Epic Games went above and beyond and released three entire games within the battle royale shooter in the form of LEGO Fortnite, Rocket Racing, and Fortnite Festival. All three games have got off to great starts in terms of reception and player engagement, and according to Epic, they’re all here to stay.
Taking recently to Twitter, Epic confirmed that contrary to what some might believe, LEGO Fortnite, Rocket Racing, and Fortnite Festival are being treated as “brand new games entirely” rather than as the limited-time modes that Fortnite has received in the past, which means they’re not going to be removed from Fortnite, and that they will receive updates of their own as well.
“Seeing some chatter around our newly launched games and people worried that they may not stick around,” the company wrote. “To clarify: these are brand new games entirely – not limited-time modes.
“Fear not! LEGO Fortnite, Rocket Racing, and Fortnite Festival are here to stay – with regular updates.”
Exactly how regular these updates will be and what they will bring remains to be seen, but Epic has already confirmed that developer Harmonix will be adding more songs to Fortnite Festival’s track list, so there’s that. Stay tuned for more information in the coming days and weeks.
