Here’s how players can complete the “invite an NPC to live in any village in survival” Lego Fortnite quest.

The LEGO Fortnite game mode is now available to play, and players are trying to complete the Trailblazer Tai quests in order to unlock the free skin.

One of the quests requires players to invite an ANPC to live in any village in a survival world. Here’s how to complete the challenge.

Invite an NPC to Live in Any Village in a Survival World

To invite an NPC to live in any village in a survival world, you’ll need to ensure you’re playing in the Survival world.

You’ll then need to build a Village Square which requires 10 wood and 10 granite to create.

You’ll need to select the icon and color for the village.

Once you’ve done that, you should see an NPC appear in your world next to the Village Square you created in the previous step.

Talk to the NPC until you see the option to ask the NPC to join your village.

If you don’t have a spare bed, you won’t be able to invite the NPC into your village. Be sure to create a bed.

Once you’ve done that and choose the “live in my village” option, the NPC will ask if you have a spot for them to sleep.

Press yes followed by the “make yourself at home!” option. You’ll then complete the challenge.

Here’s how you can craft/build planks in the LEGO Fortnite game mode.

During the Fortnite Big Bang live event, Epic Games gave players a look at the three new game modes releasing this week.

The Lego Fortnite game mode stole the show, and players have been waiting for the release of the survival game mode ever since.

With today’s new update, Epic Games officially released the LEGO Fortnite game mode.

When first experiencing the new game mode, players will need to create new tools and items to help them progress as they get deeper into the game.

In order to create certain objects, players will need to craft/build Plank. Here’s a quick guide on how to get planks in LEGO Fortnite.

How to Build a Lumber Mill in Fortnite LEGO mode

To create/build planks in LEGO Fortnite, players will need to create a Lumber Mill first. In order to create a Lumber Mill, you’ll need the following items:

• Wood x8
• Granite x15

Find the Lumber Mill item in the build menu:

Place/Build the Lumber Mill by pressing your build button.

How to Get Planks in LEGO Fortnite

To build/craft a Plank(s) in LEGO Fortnite, you’ll need to get yourself some wood. To create one plank, you’ll need one wood.

Use the Lumber Mill and use the quick deposit option. On PlayStation, players need to press square to quick deposit.

This will automatically turn one wood into a plank. If you use the deposit option, you’ll need to press the deposit button and then press the up arrow to build planks in LEGO Fortnite.

Once the item has been processed, you’ll need to take your plank by pressing the “take” option (triangle on PlayStation).

Here’s how players can build a Crafting Bench in LEGO Fortnite.

After releasing a patch update today, Epic Games has finally pushed the LEGO Fortnite game mode live.

However, a large number of players are having to wait in a queue for a few minutes due to the sheer number of players looking to jump into Fortnite to play the LEGO mode.

When playing your first session, players will be tasked to build different objects including campfires, pickaxes, and more.

Players will need these items to build other items and objects as they get deeper into the mode. One of the items you’ll need is a Crafting Bench.

Here’s a quick and easy guide on how to build a Crafting Bench in LEGO Fortnite.

How to Build a Crafting Bench in Fortnite Lego Mode

In order to build a Crafting Bench in LEGO Fortnite, players will need the material to build it.

A Crafting Bench requires the following materials to build:

• Wood x3
• Granite x5

Once you’ve got the materials, enter build mode using whatever button you have it set to and locate the Crafting Bench from the “utility” tab.

Select the Crafting Bench in the menu:

Then press your build button. As you can see in the image below, on the PlayStation, the build button is R2.

It’s best to build it under a roof to prevent it from getting damaged by rain.

If you can’t see the Crafting Bench, you’ll likely need to talk to Brite Bomber.

Here’s how you can build a campfire in the Lego Fortnite game mode.

After releasing a surprising Fortnite update today, Epic Games released the highly anticipated Lego Fortnite game mode.

Although the servers are back online, a large number of players are waiting in queue when trying to get into the new game mode.

For those of you who have managed to log in and play Lego Fortnite, you might be wondering how to build a campfire.

Here’s a quick and easy guide on how to build a Campfire.

How to build a campfire in Fortnite Lego Mode

To build a campfire in Lego Fortnite, players will first need to get the material to build it.

A campfire requires 3 wood to build. You can find the wood by running around the location where you are spawned when first launching the game mode.

You should find wood on the floor. You can also destroy trees to gather wood.

Once you have three wood, enter build mode by pressing the button set to build. By default, you’ll see the hotkey to enter build mode on the bottom left of your screen.

When you’re in build mode, select the campfire.

Then, you’ll need to build it by pressing whatever button you’ve assigned to build. As you can see in the image below, on PlayStation, the build button is R2.

Data miners have leaked the upcoming Teenage Ninja Mutant Turtles and Dragon Ball Z Skins.

Last week on Saturday, Epic Games concluded Fortnite chapter 4 with the Big Bang event. On Sunday, Chapter 5 launched with a new map, loot pool, movement mechanics, and more.

Although the new map and features in Chapter 5 have been well received by the Fortnite player base, many are waiting for the release of the Lego Fortnite mode.

Epic Games released a new update today to add any missing content in the Lego Fortnite, Rocket Racing, and Fortnite Festival.

With today’s update being the last major patch release before Epic Games employees take the rest of the year off, they also added several new skins.

Some of those include the Teenage Ninja Mutant Turtles skins along with brand new Dragon Ball Z skins also coming to the game including Frieza and Cell.

Teenage Ninja Mutant Turtles (TNMT) x Fortnite Collab Skins

In the Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1: Underground launch trailer, Epic Games teased the Teenage Ninja Mutant Turtles collaboration with a spray paint seen on a wall.

Data miners confirmed that TNMT skins would be coming to Fortnite this month and we now have an early look at what the Donatello, Michelangelo, Raphael, and Leonardo skins look like.

Donatello TMNT Fortnite Skin

“Tech expert, automotive genius, and a master with a bo staff”.

Michelangelo Fortnite Skin

“Rad skateboarder and a master with nunchucks who’s always ready to party”.

Raphael TMNT Fortnite Skin

“Always ready for a fight and a master with sai”.

Leonardo Fortnite Skin

“Dedicated team leader and a master with a katana”.

There are also other cosmetics in the Fortnite x TMNT collaboration set including pickaxes and back blings.

TMNT Fortnite Release Date

According to popular data miner iFireMonkey, the TMNT Fortnite skins will be released on December 20th, 2023. However, the date can be brought forward or backward and we’ll update you if there are any changes to the release date.

Dragon Ball Z x Fortnite Collaboration 3

Epic Games is releasing a third set of Dragon Ball Z skins. This time around, both Frieza and Cell Dragon Ball Z characters will be making their way into the world of Fortnite.

Epic Games has released the Fortnite 4.09 update today. Players are wondering why the servers are not responding and whether they’re down on 7th December 2023.

Epic Games concluded Fortnite Chapter 4 with the Big Bang event which gave us a glimpse of what to expect in the three new game modes releasing in the next few days.

Chapter 5 launched the following day, on Sunday. For the most part, it’s gone down well with the Fortnite community, but players are still waiting on the release of the new modes.

Today, the Lego Fortnite game mode will go live followed by Rocket Racing and Fortnite Festival. Not all of the required files for these game modes were in the last update.

For that reason, Epic Games has released today’s new 4.09 Fortnite update. Here’s everything you need to know about the latest release.

Why Do Fortnite Servers Say Not Responding?

When you log into Fortnite during scheduled downtime, you’ll receive the “Servers not responding” message on the screen. That means the servers are down.

Are the Fortnite Servers Down on 7th December 2023? When Will They Be Back Up?

In a surprise to many, Epic Games announced Fortnite server scheduled downtime to prepare the servers for the release of the Lego Fortnite, Rocket Racing, and Fortnite Festival games modes that’ll be released.

The Fortnite servers are down on 7th December 2023. They went down at 3 AM ET / 8 AM GMT / 9 AM CEST.

There’s no information as to when the Fortnite servers will be back up, but because Epic will likely want to ensure there’s no issue when the Lego Fortnite game mode goes live today, the servers will likely be down for longer than usual.

We’d expect the servers to be back online at roughly 7 AM ET / 12 PM GMT / 1 PM CST.

Fortnite 4.09 Update Today Patch Notes (12/7/23)

The Fortnite 4.09 update is available to download across all platforms. The new Fortnite update provided Epic Games with the opportunity to add any files they required for the upcoming game modes.

Leaked Skins

Apart from the above, Epic has also added new skins to the game. Thanks to Hypex, we have an early look at those new skins that have been leaked:

We also have an early look at the Lego Fortnite Spider-Man and MrBeast skins:

Epic Games is providing players with the Nanner Ringer Emote for free. Here’s the code to use in order to redeem it.

Epic Games launched Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1: Underground a few hours ago and saw immediate success.

Within an hour of the servers going live, according to the popular Fortnite database site Fortnite.gg, the concurrent player count hit over 6.2 million players.

However, there have been numerous server and matchmaking issues. Some players have been stuck in a queue for over an hour, while others have reported a “queue is full” matchmaking error.

Fortnite Chapter 5 is packed with content thanks to a new map, new movement mechanics, new loot pool items, vehicles, Battle Pass, and more.

There are also three new game modes releasing next week including a Lego Fortnite open-world survival map. Epic has created a new Twitter account for each of the new game modes, and Lego Fortnite has already amassed more than 150,000 followers.

Epic is kicking off its collaboration with Lego by introducing over 1,200 skin styles for Fortnite skins currently available to purchase in-game.

If a player has a skin that Epic has created a Lego style for, they’ll be able to access it in their locker. It’ll be usable when the Lego Fortnite game mode launched on December 7th.

Epic is also providing players with a free Lego and Fortnite Battle Royale skin by signing up to Lego Insiders. You can read more about that over here.

Players have also stumbled across another cosmetic item Epic Games is giving away for free, the Nanner Ringer emote.

Here’s how you can get yours.

How to Get Nanner Ringer Free Fortnite Emote – Redeem Code

To get your hands on the free Fortnite Nanna Ringer emote, players simply need to redeem a code on the Fortnite Redeem section of the site.

The code has 25 million uses, so it’s likely the vast majority of players will be able to redeem the free Nanner Ring emote.

The Redeem Code you need to enter is BANANNANANANA.

You’ll need to log in to your Epic Games account and enter the BANANNANANANA redemption code over here.

Here’s the emote in action:

You can now redeem a FREE #FortniteChapter5 Emote!

Players are yet again waiting in a Fortnite queue on December 3rd, 2023 or receiving a queue is full message, and players are wondering why and if there’s any bypass around it. Other players are wondering if the Fortnite servers are down again.

After hitting new records with the launch of Fortnite Season OG, it finally coming to an end. Chapter 4 concluded with the OG map being removed from the game with the conclusion of the Big Bang live event.

Not only did Fortnite hit a new concurrent player peak last season, but they also hit another milestone; 100 million players playing Fortnite in the month of November.

The return of the OG Fortnite map went down better than Epic could have ever imagined. So much so that Epic Games announced on Twitter that the OG map of Fortnite will once again make a return in 2024.

Epic Games has not committed to a date, but with the first season of Chapter 5 scheduled to end on March 8th, 2024, there’s a good chance that season 2 will include the return of the OG map of Fortnite.

It’s unlikely Epic Games would bring it back when they’ve worked hard on creating the Chapter 5 map. They also have plenty more new content in store with the launch of three new game modes.

The Lego Fortnite open-world survival game mode will launch next week on Thursday followed by the Rocket Racing and Fortnite Festival modes launching a day after one another.

Alongside the game modes mentioned above, we had a new map, new movement mechanics, new items in the loot pool, new vehicles, bosses, and other new content to experience along with a new Battle Pass including a Peter Griffin skin.

However, a large number of players haven’t been able to experience Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1: Underground yet due to all the server and waiting in queue issues.

Other players are having trouble even logging into Fortnite with several error messages being shown to players.

Here’s everything we know about the current Fortnite Server Status and other issues including players waiting in a queue.

Is Fortnite Down Right Now? – December 3rd 2023

It doesn’t look like the Fortnite servers are down right now, however, there is a queue that’s been deployed to avoid any potential Fortnite server issues.

Why is there a Fortntie queue I’m Waiting In Today? 3 December 2023

When Epic is experiencing a high volume of players trying to log in to Fortnite at the same time, they usually deploy a queue that players will need to wait in.

We’ve seen Epic Games deploy a queue to fix any server stability issue for players who are lucky enough to log in and play the game.

Today, the Fortnite waiting-in queue issue is caused by the number of players trying to log in to experience the new season of Fortnite; Chapter 5 Season 1: Underground.

We’ve seen players asking why there is a queue in Fortnite whenever Epic Games releases a new season on a weekend. With the peak player count already hitting 6.2 million, it’s likely the Fortnite servers can’t handle the current load.

Is there a way to Bypass Fortnite Waiting in Queue?

Unfortunately, there’s nothing you can do to jump the waiting in queue sign. Some players are reporting a queue time of more than 30 minutes, whilst others are reporting 20 or less.

We wouldn’t advise restarting your game as you’ll need to rejoin the queue and will likely have to wait even longer to drop into Fortnite to experience every chapter 5 has to offer.

Fortnite Queue Full (12/3/23)

If you’ve been lucky enough to be one of the players not be waiting in a Fortnite queue to log in to the game, other players are reporting Queue is full message when matchmaking.

We’ve seen dozens of tweets directed towards the FortniteGame and Fortnite Status account about the Queue is Full message when matchmaking on December 3rd, 2023.

Again, there is no way around the queue is full Fortnite message, and players will need to wait until Epic resolves all the issues they’re experiencing including long waiting in queue and queue is full messages.
