LEGO Fortnite players have long awaited a faster way to traverse their vast, procedurally generated worlds. The wait is over, as Epic Games has confirmed the addition of a fast travel system to the popular game. This new feature promises to revolutionize how players explore and interact with their LEGO Fortnite worlds.
