The introduction of fast travel addresses several key issues that players have faced since the game’s release:

  1. Reduced Backtracking: Players can now easily return to their bases or villages after long exploration trips.
  2. Resource Conservation: Fast travel helps avoid unnecessary encounters with hostile creatures and conserves valuable resources.
  3. Efficient Management: Managing multiple bases and villages across different biomes becomes much easier.
  4. Time-Saving: Players can spend more time on creative building and exploration rather than tedious travel.

This is the summary of current travel options available in LEGO Fortnite mode versus the upcoming fast travel system, so you can easily understand how valuable it is:

While some players think fast travel might weaken the game’s survival elements, most of the community seems to view it positively. The feature strikes a balance between respecting player time and maintaining the core exploration aspects of LEGO Fortnite.
