LEGO Fortnite is a fun sandbox survival experience that players can dive into right from the start. Though it differs rather drastically from its Battle Royale counterpart, LEGO Fortnite provides endless crafting and building fun, allowing players to create and upgrade their village and improve their survivability. Much like other games in the survival genre, LEGO Fortnite offers different modes, catering to both casual and hardcore players alike.

LEGO Fortnite: Every Trophy in Expert Mode (& How to Get Them)

LEGO Fortnite's Expert Mode allows players to earn Trophies for their hard work, and here's all of them and just how to earn them.

The v30.10 update for LEGO Fortnite saw the debut of two additional game modes, along with additional world settings for players to customize to their liking. Each mode provides a unique experience for players and offers their own level of difficulty. From Cozy Mode to the infamous Expert Mode, here are the difficulties of LEGO Fortnite explained!

Cozy Mode

Cozy Mode is the perfect mode for beginners and players looking for a more casual experience in LEGO Fortnite. In this mode, players can expect to face off against easier enemies, along with not having to worry about surviving the heat or cold within the different biomes of the world. Other neat benefits include having unlimited stamina and removing hunger, allowing players to relax and enjoy their adventure.

Here is a breakdown of the default settings for Cozy Mode:

Survival Mode

Survival serves as the base game mode for LEGO Fortnite and is essentially the normal difficulty. In this mode, players will experience hunger and stamina consumption, along with facing off against enemies at their base level. Unlike Cozy Mode, temperature is also enabled by default in Survival, calling upon players to gear up in order to survive the cold or heat depending upon which biome they find themselves in. All in all, Survival Mode is great for players looking to build, gather, craft, and face off against mighty foes when exploring the world.

Here is a breakdown of the default settings for Survival Mode:

Sandbox Mode

Sandbox Mode serves as a creative playground for players who want to ditch all the survival mechanics in other modes and simply build to their hearts' content. Everything players can build and craft in Sandbox Mode requires no resources, and players can even spawn any item they wish via the expanded inventory system. Other perks of this game mode include the ability to fly by pressing the jump button while in midair, allowing players to explore the world with ease.

Expert Mode

Finally, there is Expert Mode, which serves as the hardest difficulty in LEGO Fortnite. In Expert Mode, players will be greeted with many of the same survival mechanics as Survival Mode, but this time enemies are cranked up to a harder difficulty. Players will also encounter Storm-Wild Enemies, special variants of hostile enemies that have been super buffed by the storm. But that's not all, as players will also be permanently eliminated from their world should they lose all their hearts. The only way to escape this elimination is to craft a Totem Of Return.

Unlike other modes in LEGO Fortnite, many of the setting options in Expert Mode cannot be changed, with the only exception being Friendly Damage, which can be enabled or disabled when creating a new world. Here is a breakdown of the modes' default settings:
