Summary
An inventiveLEGO Fortniteplayer has shared their recreation of Helm’s Deep fromThe Lord of the Ringswith their fellow players. Launched by Epic Games less than a month ago,LEGO Fortnitehas been well-receivedthanks to its creative potential for players to develop their adventures from a mix of PvE, exploration, and building elements.
Breaking away fromFortnite’s competitive battle royale environment,LEGO Fortniteis a mode that offers players a cooperative survival experience. While it’s something that many games have already done,LEGO Fortnitestands out by allowing players to create their world, grow crops, and interact with creatures out of LEGO blocks. Another standout aspect is the mode’s creation system, which players are cleverly using to bring the most varied ideas to life. Showcasingthe LEGO Fortnitecommunity’s ability to push the boundaries of what can be done, one player reproduced a location from one of the world’s most famous works of epic fantasy.
A Reddit user named Crownedpepper has recreated Helm’s Deep fromThe Lord of the RingsinLEGO Fortnite. The clip shared by the player shows an area with two hills and a large fortress in the middle, just like the fortified gorge described in J.R.R. Tolkien’s work. The player has also recreated the Hornburg fortress, showing its sprawling walls, a tower, and a long flight of stairs leading up to the gateway. InThe Lord of the Rings, Helm’s Deep is remembered for theBattle of Helm’s Deep, known as one of the most intense battles in TheLord of the Ringswhere the wizard Saruman’s forces were defeated.
That isn’t the only time the OP has shownLEGO Fortniteplayers their recreation of Helm’s Deep. As well as showing off the massive dimensions of the fortress, the player shared another clip revealing what it looks like from the inside, with high walls and long staircases. According to the player, they are creating a world based onThe Lord of the Rings, and this is the second creation related to Tolkien’s novel, the first having been a reproduction of Barad-Dur, theiconic tower symbolizing Sauron’s control over Mordor.
Along with recreating Helm’s Deep and Barad-Dur, theLEGO Fortnitecommunity has been sharing equally impressive projects such as giant Ferris wheels and functional helicopters, beautiful cities, and even arecreation of the Avengers Tower. With a player base that has already shown a great knack for using the game’s features, the future forLEGO Fortnitehas even more potential, as Epic Games adds new features and improves the general experience.
