WithFortnite’smajorStar Warsseason underway, however, yet another mode has also made its debut, offering its own unique twist. Here’severything there is to know about theLEGO FortniteRapid Survival mode.
What Is LEGO Fortnite Rapid Survival?
Rules & How To Play
LEGO FortniteRapid Survival is a multiplayer twist to the traditionalLEGO Fortnite Odysseyexperience, set on a miniatureStar Warsisland. In this mode, players can matchmake with up to seven others and are dropped onto an island where they have the freedom to do whatever they want.
The mode plays similarly toLEGO Fortnite Odysseyfor the most part, featuring the ability to craft nearly everything from the standard mode—but this time players aregiven a starting loadout with a few tools, resources, and a trusty Lightsaberto give them a head start. However, there are some key differences. Most notably,PvP is enabled, and since players join online sessions with others, they can choose to work together or battle it out.
Another important change is that, while most Utility Stations are present, Village Squares and Villagers are not available.Build options are also limited to the player’s owned LEGO Build Sets.Additionally, because custom worlds aren’t supported,progress is tied to the current session only, which lasts up to four hours. Once the session ends or the player leaves, all progress that the player has made will be lost.
Day and night cycles in this mode are also much faster, and players will be unable to fast travel via the Bus Station. Finally,Rapid Survival has the permadeath feature enabled.If a player is eliminated—whether by another player, Stormtroopers, wildlife, or environmental hazards—and they don’thave a Totem of Return, they’ll take an early trip back to the lobby.
LEGO FortniteRapid Survival can be found in the “By Epic” section when browsingFortniteexperiences via the main menu. However, if players can’t find it there, simply head to the search tab next to “Play” and type in “Rapid Survival.”
Quests & Earning XP
WhileLEGO FortniteRapid Survival introduces its own unique gameplay rules that make it a fun mode to explore, it also offers a solid way to earn XP just by playing. In addition to the regular Playtime XP players gain, the mode includes a special set of“Try Rapid Survival” quests that reward a total of 240,000 XPupon completion, along withdaily quests that provide an additional 3,000 XP every day.
Each quest involves fairly standard in-game tasks that players can complete passively, but they can also be tracked using the “Track Quest” feature, which makes progression easier to follow. Altogether, this makes trying out Rapid Survival even more rewarding, as players can rack up XP andearn extra levels across any Passesthey currently own.
