LEGO Fortnite has been continually updated with new buildings, biomes, and features for the survival crafting game within Fortnite. Now, it is possible to play locally with another player, so here is how to play split-screen multiplayer in LEGO Fortnite.
How to Start Split-Screen Multiplayer in LEGO Fortnite
First, select the LEGO Fortnite game mode from the various playlists below the Fortnite lobby. Make sure the second controller is connected to your console.
Have the second player sign into their own console account. They must have their own account on the system of choice, as Guest and Quick Play console accounts are not supported for LEGO Fortnite.
The player will then be asked to link their Epic account after signing in, which will give access to any outfits and allow progress to be made on any previous quests or passes. That way, they can continue leveling their own account once they are signed out of the other player’s console.
The second player will show up in the lobby alongside the first after logging in completely. Players can then pick a world to load up in LEGO Fortnite and the split-screen multiplayer will happen automatically once loaded in.
Split-Screen Multiplayer Support in LEGO Fortnite
The only platforms the support split-screen multiplayer in LEGO Fortnite are PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox One at the time of this writing. The feature is not available for PC, Nintendo Switch, and mobile platforms. LEGO Fortnite does support cross-platform play, so players on those three platforms will have to play online with friends instead of locally on the same screen.
