Get Ready for New Animals in Lego Fortnite

There have been plenty of events and updates going on in Battle Royale modes, but we’ve been patiently waiting for another update to LEGO Fortnite. We won’t have to wait too much longer since its next update will roll out on April 23rd, 2024. In this update, we’ll get a brand-new way to farm, with tamable animals.

We’ll be able to tame wild animals like cows, pigs, and sheep by petting them to gain their trust and then feeding them Animal Treats to start building a friendship. Then, we can herd them back to our farms, where we can assign them to Animal Houses.

Animals at the farm can provide essential materials like wool, feathers, fertilizer, milk, and mushrooms. However, animals also require a lot of care and attention. You’ll need to feed them regularly and keep a good relationship with them by petting them. If you can’t keep up with their needs, you can always assign a Villager to help you out.

Along with the new chicken and cow variants joining the game, there are also new deadly animals — bears. You don’t want these animals following you back to your farm because they aren’t as friendly. You can avoid alarming them by staying as quiet as possible and sneaking around them.

These new animals bring a lot of potential to the game and will definitely make it easier to farm those essential materials without roaming the island for them. The new Anarchy Acres bundles with building pieces and decor can also make your farm look the part as well!
