Summary
Fortnite’sLEGO mode is set to receive an all-new Marvel skin that fans have been eagerly awaiting for quite a while now. WhileFortniteadded LEGO versions of over 1,200 skins when the mode debuted, a majority of them lacked higher-quality models. This, however, seems to be an entirely new skin altogether.
Many were initially skeptical about theLEGOmode inFortnite, but it has established a niche for itself and turned out to be a massive success. In fact, right after its launch,moreFortniteplayers were playing the LEGO modethan the classic Battle Royale mode. Since then, the game mode has evolved quite a bit, with Epic Games actively adding new features and mechanics to keep fans engaged. Another newLEGOupdate is on the radar, and it seems like an extremely popular character could be making its way to the game.
In an overview of its upcoming v29.10 Mechanical Mayhem Update, which is slated to release on March 26, Epic Games revealed what new features fans can expect from the game. However, what grabbed the attention of many was the featured image for the post, which featured several LEGO skins. Particularly, fan-favorite characters Drax andGroot fromMarvel’s Guardians of the Galaxyfranchise can be seen driving a car. While the former is already available inFortnite, this is the first time that Drax will be debuting in the game.
Fortnite Finally Adding Drax Skin as Part of LEGO Update
Surprisingly, all main characters fromGuardians of the Galaxysuch as Gamora, Groot, and Star-Lord were added toFortnitelongago, with Drax being the only exception. Fans have been requesting the release of Drax ever sinceGamora was released inFortnitea couple of years back. Considering that Star-Lord was added back in Chapter 1 Season 8, followed by Groot in Chapter 2 Season 4, fans had almost given up on the prospects of a Drax skin inFortnite. However, it appears Epic Games has managed to surprise the community once again.
Over on Reddit,Fortniteplayers are quite excited about the release of the skin, with many humorously calling it an invisible pay-to-win skin. This is a reference to a hilariousmoment inAvengers: Infinity War, where Drax says he has mastered the ability to become invisible by merely standing still. Jokes apart, a few fans are quite skeptical about the release if it ends up being inspired by the MCU version of Drax. This would put the entireGuardian of the Galaxyskin set all over the place, considering thatFortnitehas abruptly shifted between comic and MCU versions for itsGuardians of the Galaxycharacters. Either way, theFortnitev29.10 Update is shaping up to be quite an eventful one for fans.
