If you\u2019ve booted up Fortnite<\/a> since Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 2<\/a> began, you\u2019ve probably already noticed that building has been removed from Fortnite.\u00a0 You might be wondering why that has happened and when building will come back to the game.<\/p>\n After all, building has been one of the core pillars of Fortnite\u2019s gameplay experience since the game\u2019s launch, with players creating shelters and other helpful things in order to dominate the battle-royale game, overcome their opponents and work around whichever other distractions pop up (and with Fortnite rolling out seasonal updates on the regular, there\u2019s almost always something to hide yourself away from if you want to succeed).<\/p>\n This is all changing at the moment, though, with building officially being removed from Fortnite in the game\u2019s latest season. Keep on reading to learn what that\u2019s all about!<\/p>\n Yes, building has been removed from Fortnite! In a massive overhaul to the overall mechanics of the game, Epic Games has opted to take building out of the battle-royale mode. This is part of the new seasonal event, Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 2: Resistance, which started at the weekend.<\/p>\n Epic confirmed the news with a blog post on the official Fortnite website<\/a>, saying in no uncertain terms: \u201cBuilding has been wiped out!\u201d<\/p>\n Here\u2019s an important note: building has only<\/em> been removed from the main battle-royale game, with the other Fortnite modes keeping the mechanic for now.<\/p>\n Epic stated in the same blog post: \u201cBuilding is unaffected in competitive\/Arena playlists as well as in Team Rumble and Creative Islands.\u201d So if you\u2019re desperate for building, try one of those modes instead! There\u2019s a new Doctor Who Fortnite creative map<\/a> if you fancy something different.<\/p> As for the reasons behind this change, it seems that Epic Games has removed building from Fortnite because the developers want to challenge the players with some new defence mechanics.<\/p>\n The official blog explained: \u201cTo help maintain cover, you now have an Overshield on top of your Shield and Health. The Overshield is your first line of defense: before your Shield and Health take a hit, it\u2019s your Overshield that\u2019ll crack. Your Overshield will still recover if it goes all the way down to 0.\u201d<\/p>\n This use of multiple shields on top of your Health bar isn\u2019t that dissimilar to how defence works in games like Apex Legends, so perhaps Epic is testing the waters to see if players are keen to adopt that kind of tactical shield play that is so popular in other titles.<\/p>\n Although this hasn\u2019t been confirmed by an official source, it seems plausible that building could return to Fortnite on\u00a03rd June 2022<\/strong> or at some point close to that date.<\/p>\n The battle pass page on the Fortnite website<\/a> confirms that the current battle pass, the one tied to Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 2, will end on 3rd June \u2013 so that\u2019s when you\u2019ll likely see the next wave of big changes, which could include the return of building to Fortnite.
