LEGO Fortnite player discovers easiest way to defeat Brutes safely and on the cheap

Epic Games has released the patch notes for Lego Fortnite version 28.10, detailing build changes and new features. 

The first major LEGO Fortnite update since the mode launched is now live. Various gameplay changes have been made, as well as performance fixes, and the elimination of pesky bugs that have been getting in the way of your playthrough. In addition, a new item has become available in both Survival and Sandbox modes that’ll elevate you to new heights. That’s right, the Launch Pad has joined LEGO Fortnite and here’s how you can craft one the next time you play.

Yesterday we got the big reveal of Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, and Bethesda and MachineGames didn’t hold back, revealing quite a bit of first-person gameplay and other info about the game’s approach and story. That said, there were a few lingering questions after the presentation, such as, who’s playing Indy and what kind of tech is powering the game? Well, we now have answers on both.

From its hand-to-hand combat and its fully simulated whip to its focus on cinematic set pieces and the fact that it’s going to be a primarily first-person experience, there’s plenty about Indiana Jones and the Great Circle that has been revealed by developer MachineGames, though some questions have still yet to be answered. For instance, how is the game going to be structured? Is it going to be a linear experience, as you’d expect from a cinematic action-adventure game such as this one, or will it afford room for open-ended exploration?

The upcoming Indiana Jones and the Great Circle will see veteran voice actor Troy Baker play the titular treasure hunter. Bethesda revealed that it is working on an Indiana Jones video game back in 2021, with subsidiary Wolfenstein studio MachineGames on developmental duties. There has been very little official information in the years since the Indiana Jones game’s first 30-second teaser trailer was shown, save that it is being produced exclusively for PC and Xbox consoles following Microsoft’s buyout of Bethesda parent company ZeniMax Media in 2021.

Back in 2024 Microsoft and Bethesda announced a new Indiana Jones game was coming our way courtesy of producer Todd Howard and Wolfenstein developer MachineGames, but since then, very little else has been revealed. Rumors that the game may be launching this year have been making the rounds, but it’s been radio silence from Microsoft and Bethesda themselves.

The leaks were right. Machine Games' next Nazi-biffer is called Indiana Jones And The Great Circle. It was shown for the first time during this evening's Xbox Developer Direct, where we got to see first-person punching and whipping, some tomb raiding, and plenty of Indy's face in cutscenes.

Build a Rocket Boy, a Scotland-headquartered game development company founded by one of the former lead developers behind the Grand Theft Auto franchise, today announced it has raised $110 million in a Series D round of funding.

A LEGO Fortnite player has created a massive, realistic-looking replica of a modern naval battleship. The player used the robust in-game building mechanics within LEGO Fortnite to create the highly complex structure, letting it float in the middle of a large lake.

One LEGO Fortnite player has created the Death Star from the Star Wars universe. Since the launch of LEGO Fortnite, players have shared their impressive builds within the community, with some providing instructions on how to make carbon copies of famous locales from other video games. Not long ago, one created a replica of Red Dead Redemption 2's Armadillo town, while another LEGO Fortnite player built the Avengers Tower in their sandbox world.

Indiana Jones And The Great Circle appears to be the title of Bethesda and Lucasfilm's new Indiana Jones game created by Wolfenstein developers MachineGames, if a recent brace of domain registrations are any indication.

While the next title by developer MachineGames has been shrouded in quite a bit of mystery—all we know about it is that it’s based on the Indiana Jones franchise—fans think that they might have discovered the game’s official title. As caught by IGN, Twitter user Kurakasis revealed on the social media platform that the believe that the game will be titled Indiana Jones and the Great Circle.
