How to Fast Travel in LEGO Fortnite

Players are thrown into incredibly huge worlds in LEGO Fortnite, so it makes sense that they'd want to be able to fast travel around it.

LEGO Fortnite throws players into vast, procedurally generated worlds filled to the brim with biomes to explore and resources to collect. Players must then bring those resources together to build a village, which is why a fast travel feature would really help.

Almost every open world game has a fast travel system for a reason. Players tire of exploring the vast open worlds they initially want to see every corner of. Running across the map becomes a chore instead of a joy, and all players want to do is teleport to help them get to the good stuff. A survival crafting game where the main goal is to upgrade a village, like LEGO Fortnite, should have a standard fast travel system. Instead, it’s got a slightly complex one that puts the onus on the player.

Can You Fast Travel in LEGO Fortnite?

No, there’s no fast travel system in LEGO Fortnite at the time of writing. While this could change in the future, we’re hesitant to say it definitely will because it could ruin the flow of gameplay. After all, the beauty of what makes LEGO Fortnite so immersive for us is that no matter how well-prepared we are, we could still die miles away from our village and end up losing those important resources, respawn at our village, and be forced to set out with nothing to collect them.

Around December 19, 2023, players discovered a fast travel exploit that allowed them to create a teleporter. While the teleporter technically enables fast travel, it’s hard to build and doesn’t always work because it’s not an intended feature. We’ve explained how to build a teleporter below.

How to Build a Teleporter in LEGO Fortnite

To build a teleporter in LEGO Fortnite, they need to use a method discovered by Mr. Shinnister on TikTok. Players must build a structure that is four blocks tall, the best block is the Wood Foundation, and place an item on every space possible on the top block. The best item for this is Thrusters because they create the most consistent teleporters.

Then, players must break the second block, then the third block, and finally the bottom block. Once the bottom block has been broken, players can push the last block away from where it was positioned, but LEGO Fortnite will leave a version of the Thrusters in the same location, creating a floating set and a set on the block.

When players jump on either set of Thrusters, they’ll be teleported to and from the other set. However, this glitch will almost certainly be patched out soon and is known to crash the game. If players want to use legitimately fast traversal in the game, they should use the method below.

How to Make Travel Faster in LEGO Fortnite

There are many ways to make travel faster in LEGO Fortnite. The easiest is to craft a Glider so players can soar gracefully from the top of mountains or hills as they travel. If players want to cover long distances in relative safety, then they can combine a Button with Thrusters and Balloons on a platform to create a vehicle.

There’s no set blueprint for this type of vehicle. Most players create one eventually out of curiosity, similar to how players used the building mechanics in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Provided the Balloons hold the platform with Thrusters on in the air, and the Button turns the Thrusters on and shoots everything in the right direction, players will travel faster.

The only disadvantage to this faster travel system is that players must destroy the Balloons carefully after shitting down the Thrusters if they want to land. They will need to rebuild the vehicle from scratch if they want to be able to travel back the way they came. For us, it’s easier to run and walk the miles.
