LEGO Fortnite’s release was such a surprise, especially to players who maybe haven’t picked up the controller and played Fortnite in a while. I’m a part of that group. Anyways. in LEGO Fortnite, players will have to use a lot of items such as tools and weapons. Well, items like these have a certain durability before they break and become unusable.

But can you repair items in this game, or do you have to make a new item every time your old one breaks?

Can You Repair Items?

I am not certain why the devs went with this design choice, but that’s where we stand currently. There’s also little evidence to suggest that this might be changing in the future, despite it being slightly annoying.
