《LEGO® Fortnite®》家長指南

LEGO® Fortnite® 家長指南

《LEGO® Fortnite®》是一款在熟悉而安全無虞的環境中激發玩家無盡創意的遊戲。

《LEGO Fortnite》將樂高集團的經典人偶變成 LEGO Style Outfit,加入開發者 Epic Games 的《Fortnite》中,此外也加入了積木與零件。你甚至能透過既有的《Fortnite》啟動器下載並開始遊玩《LEGO Fortnite》。只要在「Discover」選單中選擇「LEGO Fortnite」即可。

但《LEGO Fortnite》不只是有人偶的 Battle Royale。這是嶄新的體驗,融合了兩個世界的精華,讓已經下載《Fortnite》的玩家都能免費* 暢玩《LEGO Fortnite》-可以自己玩,跟好友同樂更棒。

「Survival」世界是什麼?

在「Survival」世界中,玩家會成為英雄-收集資源、拼砌建築物、製作工具與武器、跟敵人對戰,以及探索廣闊的開放世界。

「Survival」世界內建的挑戰之一是玩家必須收集和製作生存所需的東西。玩家從樹木取得木材,並變成營火、火把、斧頭與鏟子來收集更多資源,以及製作劍和盾牌來保護自己。

他們拼砌得越多,就能學到越多。他們學到越多,就能解鎖越多拼砌藍圖,拼砌更大、更好的東西。

「Sandbox」世界是什麼?

在「Sandbox」世界中,每個玩家都像是擁有一個聚寶盆,裡面裝滿無窮無盡的樂高積木與零件。玩家無須擔心看守森林的野狼,不必去森林收集木材或戰鬥,就可以直接拼砌小木屋。

玩家從進到「Sandbox」世界的那刻起,只需專注於創作與表現自我,不用跟敵人對戰或採集材料,還能像超級英雄一樣飛向天際探索地圖。

LEGO Island 是什麼?

自 LEGO Fortnite 於 2023 年下旬推出的數個月後,新功能 LEGO Island 也隨之上線。在此新玩法中,玩家不須在廣闊的開放世界中求生存或是打造建築,而能享有規模較小、更為聚焦且方向性明確的體驗,其中部分體驗更是由樂高集團所直接設計的。 

舉例來說,在樂高集團的 LEGO Cat Island Adventure 中,玩家會來到「和毛小孩一起探索的絕喵之處」。玩家只需要四處奔跑、找到自己可愛的貓咪並逗牠們開心即可。玩家和毛小孩可以探索海灘和瀑布,在過程中建立更親密的感情。 

LEGO Raft Survival 則標榜經典的樂高海盜主題,在浴缸中展開動作冒險。玩家在遭受到砲火攻擊時,必須設法留在筏上,他們也可以建造船筏並拯救隊友。最重要的就是避免落水,不然會被鯊魚鎖定! 

玩家只要前往 Fortnite「Play」選單中的「LEGO Islands」區塊,即可參加這些較小的冒險。若想瀏覽樂高集團設計的所有島嶼,請參考以下步驟。

  1. 在 Fortnite 的「Play」選單上,向下滑動至「LEGO Islands」區塊。 
  2. 點擊上述的島嶼,例如 LEGO Raft Survival 和 LEGO Cat Island Adventure,如果上面顯示「created by thelegogroup」,即表示該島嶼是由我們所創建。 
  3. 點擊 3 點圖示,並點選「View Creator」即可查看詳情。

自 2024 年起,LEGO Group 將會在 Fortnite 中打造更多島嶼的體驗。

樂高集團外部的創建者也可以在 Fortnite 中設計並發佈自己的 LEGO Island。若為美國的玩家,LEGO Island 必須符合 ESRB 分級中的級別 E10+。若為歐洲多數地區的玩家,則必須符合 PEGI 分級中的級別 7。若想查看不同 LEGO Island 各自的級別,你可以在 Fortnite 的「Play」選單中,查看各 LEGO Island 圖示正下方的標示。

《LEGO Fortnite》的安全性

創建《LEGO Fortnite》的世界

《LEGO Fortnite》的 Survival 和 Sandbox 世界能讓 8 位玩家同時躍入一個世界,而結伴同遊是玩此遊戲的最佳方式。玩家之間可以合作拼砌、採集、收集與克服挑戰,有好友作伴,必會更加強大,表現更為出色。LEGO Island 設計師則支援各種不同人數的玩家,有些較為私密的體驗是為 4 名玩家所設計,有些則會一次邀請 16 到 20 名玩家。 

 當玩家在 Survival 和 Sandbox 模式中創建新的世界時,預設是完全私密的,也就是說,其他玩家除非獲得這個世界的擁有者邀請,不然無法加入。在《LEGO Fortnite》中,沒有「公開」的世界,只要沒有獲得朋友邀請,就無法加入別人所擁有的世界。許多 LEGO Island 世界的設計雖然是公開的,適合和朋友一起多人遊玩,若想自己一個人玩也沒問題。

玩家在邀請其他人加入自己的 Survival 和 Sandbox 世界前,需要先和對方成為 Fortnite 中的朋友。世界擁有者還可以邀請朋友成為「鑰匙持有者」,即使在世界擁有者離線的狀態下,鑰匙持有者仍然可以隨時造訪和修改擁有者的世界。請留意,訪客可以拼砌或拆除任何創作,所以在你的孩子決定要與哪些朋友分享自己的世界前,要先三思!
我們期待所有玩家在遊玩時都能承擔個人責任並遵循 Epic 的規則,意即不能在 LEGO Fortnite 世界中產出冒犯性內容。若玩家在某個世界中發現不當內容,我們鼓勵其使用 Fortnite 便利的舉報工具加以舉報,以便 Epic 針對違反規則的內容和玩家採取行動。

設定家長控制功能

《Fortnite》內含豐富的遊戲內家長控制功能,以便家長管理孩子在遊戲中的體驗。提供此遊戲服務的平台(例如 PlayStation®XboxNintendo Switch™Windows)亦內建自身的家長控制功能。

透過 Epic Games 提供的家長控制功能,你可以管理使用社交功能(如語音聊天)的權限、要求須輸入家長控制 PIN 碼才能購買,以及設定其他控制選項。透過 Epic 帳號入口網站,或是《Fortnite》遊戲內的「Parental Controls」(家長控制)選單,均可存取這些選項。以下是在遊戲內的操作說明:

  1. 開啟《Fortnite》。
  2. 點選 3 條橫線的圖示以開啟主選單,再點選齒輪形圖示。
  3. 在載入的選單中選擇「Parental Controls」。

Epic 家長控制功能會要求你透過 Epic 帳號入口網站 或《Fortnite》的「Parental Controls」選單,設定一組 6 位數 PIN 碼,藉此確保只有你能變更帳號設定。

家長與監護人可在帳號入口網站自訂家長控制選項,為每個家庭成員提供適齡的體驗。建議留意的家長控制選項包括:

  • 語音與文字聊天權限:你可以管理孩子能透過 Epic 語音與文字聊天功能來交談的對象。你可以選擇「Friends Only」(僅限好友)等選項,讓孩子只能跟自己 Epic 好友名單和平台好友名單中的玩家交談,或是完全關閉聊天功能。
  • 購買設定:你可以選擇在透過 Epic 付款功能以實際金錢購買時,必須輸入家長控制 PIN 碼。
  • 操作好友邀請時,必須輸入 PIN 碼:你可以選擇在孩子要發送和接受 Epic 好友邀請時,必須輸入 PIN 碼。由於《LEGO Fortnite》中的世界僅限擁有者和其邀請的朋友加入,透過此控制功能,你可以管理孩子能在遊戲中互動的對象。
  • 《Fortnite》內容分級:遊戲中,每座島嶼都有年齡分級,你可以決定孩子能按照年齡分級造訪哪些島嶼。

請留意:如果你的孩子是透過遊戲機遊玩,你可能也必須在該遊戲機的平台系統中設定購買、通訊限制與朋友邀請等控制選項。例如,即使你在《Fortnite》中關閉了語音聊天功能,孩子可能仍能以遊戲機內建的聊天系統進行語音聊天。

若有玩家透過語音聊天從事霸凌、騷擾或其他不當行為,任何人都可以使用《Fortnite》的語音檢舉功能,提交語音證據,以利 Epic 對該玩家採取行動。對於未滿 18 歲的玩家,此功能會在語音聊天中自動啟用,你也可以透過《Fortnite》的語音選單,查看遊戲內的語音檢舉設定

We can use one of the first LEGO Kits as a way to explain how they all work. The Beachside Boulevard Bundle includes 8 Builds (and all of the Building Parts that make up the Builds) and 44 Decor items. The optional purchase includes the Beach Pavillion building, a Beach House and a Lifeguard Tower. The Shore Shack Build looks like a beach shed. It’s the perfect compliment for Decor like beach chairs, surfboards and umbrellas.

LEGO Fortnite purchases use Fortnite’s in-game currency called V-Bucks. No matter what platform you buy something on, content purchased with V-Bucks is available on all devices where you’ve linked the account through which you made the purchase.

Each platform processes its own payments. For example, the transaction to purchase V-Bucks on an Xbox Series X uses Microsoft as the payment processor. Android (Google Play), PlayStation®, Xbox, Nintendo Switch™ and Windows have parental controls settings. Epic Games’ Parental Controls settings help you manage purchases from a child’s account in the Epic Game Store.

LEGO Fortnite remains fundamentally free, even with these optional purchases, and free content continues to arrive in the game constantly.

LEGO Fortnite Safety

Creating LEGO Fortnite worlds

LEGO Fortnite’s Survival and Sandbox worlds allow eight players to jump in simultaneously in one world, and having a community is the best way to play the game. Players cooperate to build, harvest, gather and overcome challenges. Each player is stronger and better with friends. LEGO Islands designers can support various numbers of players. Some more intimate experiences are designed for four, while others call for 16 or 20 players at a time.

When players first create a world in Survival and Sandbox modes, it’s fully private, which means no other players will be able to join unless the world owner invites them. There are no public Sandbox or Survival worlds in LEGO Fortnite, and there’s no way to join someone else’s world unless a player gets an invitation from one of their friends. While many LEGO Islands are designed as public multiplayer experiences to be enjoyed with friends, they can also be played solo.

Before players can invite other people to join them in their Survival and Sandbox worlds, they need to be friends in Fortnite. World owners can also invite their friends to be a ‘key holder’, which means their friends can access and edit the world anytime, even if the owner is offline. Remember: guests can build or tear down any creations so it’s important to have a good think before your child decides which friends they want to share their world with!

Setting up Parental Controls

Fortnite has extensive in-game parental controls that allow adults to manage their child’s experience in the game. Each platform on which the game is available – for example, PlayStation®, Xbox, Nintendo Switch™ and Windows – also offers its own parental controls.

With Epic Games’ Parental Controls, you can manage access to social features (such as voice chat), require a Parental Controls PIN for purchases and set up additional controls. You can access them online in the Epic Account Portal and also in-game using the Fortnite Parental Controls menu. Here’s how to access that menu in-game:

1. Launch Fortnite.

2. Open the main menu (which looks like three horizontal lines), and select the gear-shaped icon.

3. Select Parental Controls from the menu that loads.

Epic Parental Controls require you to set up a six-digit PIN through the Epic Account Portal or the Fortnite Parental Controls menu. The PIN ensures that only you can make changes to your settings.

From the Account Portal, parents and guardians can customize their Parental Controls to create an age-appropriate experience for every member of the family. Notable Parental Controls include:

  • Voice and text chat permissions: You can manage who your child is able to speak with using Epic’s voice and text chat. You can select options like ‘Friends Only,’ which only allows your child to speak with other players in their Epic friends list and platform friend list, or disable chat entirely.
  • Purchasing settings: You can choose to require your Parental Controls PIN to be entered before real money purchases are made using Epic payment.
  • Require your PIN for friend requests: You have the option of requiring your PIN to be entered in order for your child to send or accept Epic friend requests. With this control, you can manage who your child is able to interact with in LEGO Fortnite since worlds are private to players and their invited friends.
  • Fortnite Content Ratings: In Fortnite, every island has an age rating, and you can determine which islands your child can visit based on those ratings.

Note: If your child is playing on a console, then you may also need to set controls for purchasing, communication limits, friend requests and more in that ecosystem. For example, if you turn off voice chat in Fortnite, your child may still be able to access voice chat using the chat system built into their console.

Fortnite’s voice reporting feature allows anyone to submit audio evidence so Epic can take action against other players using voice chat to bully, harass or engage in other inappropriate behavior. For players under 18, the feature is automatically on in voice chats. You can also see voice reporting settings in-game through Fortnite’s audio menu.

Getting started

An Epic Games account is required for your child to play LEGO Fortnite. When creating an Epic account, if a player indicates they are under 13 or their country’s age of digital consent (whichever is higher) their account will be a Cabined Account. A Cabined Account is an Epic account that’s designed to create a safe and inclusive space for younger players. Players with Cabined Accounts can still play LEGO Fortnite but won’t be able to access certain features such as voice chat until their parent or guardian provides consent.

If your child already plays Fortnite, then they already have what they need to play LEGO Fortnite. Just open Fortnite, and look for LEGO Fortnite inside of there.

You can also sign them in with an existing LEGO, Epic Games, Nintendo®, PlayStation or Xbox account. If they don’t have one, we suggest creating a LEGO account and linking that to create your Epic Games account. You can also link an existing LEGO account to an existing Epic Games account. Either way, linking your Epic and LEGO accounts unlocks LEGO Insiders or LEGO Insiders Club (for younger players) and bonuses like the Explorer Emilie Outfit including the LEGO Style for your child’s connected accounts.

You can also sign into an account through the official Epic Games site to let Epic know who your child is across the many places where they can play LEGO Fortnite, like consoles and mobile devices.

When you have the account set up and connected, adding friends is a simple process.

1. Launch Fortnite and sign into your child’s account.

2. Select your child’s circular avatar icon in the upper right of the screen.

3. Select the icon with the plus button on the menu that appears, which brings you to the Add Friends menu.

4. Enter the Epic account name or email address of your child’s friend in the box provided.

LEGO Fortnite has a feature called crossplay, which allows people to join in a match of the game no matter what platform they are on – including PlayStation, Mac, PC, Nintendo Switch or Xbox. Crossplay is enabled by default, so it doesn’t matter what hardware your child and their friends have. They can all play together.

LEGO Fortnite is a playground for players of all ages, whether they set out on daring adventures or spend their time building castles in the air. It’s all about fostering imagination and creativity. Playing together is the ultimate social experience in LEGO Fortnite.

Whether solo or with friends, you can play LEGO Fortnite for free*. The journey is only just beginning with new world-building, gameplay features, and more LEGO Styles arriving in updates starting early 2024.

*Optional in-game purchases available.

LEGO Star Wars™ Update

In May 2024, LEGO Fortnite expanded with a galaxy’s worth of content in the 29.40 update.

When players launch the game, a Rebel visitor to their Village will lead them to a new island. It’s connected to but separate from the Survival and Sandbox worlds that we discussed above. Star Wars™ content flows from this free new island, which will remain available even after the 20.40 update.

The LEGO Star Wars™ update adds enemies like Imperial Stormtroopers™ and iconic weapons like Blasters, Thermal Detonators, and Lightsabers. Players can craft many weapons at the new Rebel Workbench, but they’ll have to earn their Lightsabers.

There’s also a new Rebel Village to build, defend, and upgrade. It’s like a classic LEGO Fortnite Village but with a Star Wars™ twist. New buildings like the Rebel Farm and the Rebel Stables sport the insignia of the Rebellion and fences are made of lasers instead of wood. And the minifigure friends who move in will be a combination of human, alien and Droid.

Many new LEGO Styles – LEGO versions of Fortnite Outfits – are now available in LEGO Fortnite, including Darth Vader and the Mandalorian. If your child already owned those Outfits in Fortnite, they’ll be able to use them in LEGO Fortnite now, too. Outfits are also available to purchase.

The LEGO Pass: Rebel Adventure is a series of quests that arrived with the update and is available until July 22, 2024. Players complete them, earn Studs for their efforts and unlock in-game rewards with the Studs they earn. There are two versions.

  1. The Free Rewards Track includes 10 Decor Bundles and the Mos Eisley Cantina Build.
  2. The Premium Reward Track costs 1,400 V-Bucks (Fortnite’s in-game currency) and includes 11 additional rewards as well as the Chewbacca Outfit. In short, players complete the same quests as the Free Rewards Track, but they receive more rewards and a LEGO Style Fortnite Outfit for doing so.
