![]() ![]() To counter that, you can quickly leap down (or up, left, or right) to get your wheels on solid ground. However, soaring off a ramp and taking flight for too long could slow you down and open a window for those below you to speed ahead on the road. Similarly, cars can all jump just like they do in Rocket League, and those jumps can be made longer with a longer hold of the jump button. Rocket Racing is the middle ground between Fortnite and Rocket League-and classic kart racers, of course. This adds a subtle but appreciable layer to choosing when to use it, because not only do you need to get that timing just right, but the more intricate maps don't seem to have a lot of straightaways, meaning you may want to more strongly consider when-or if-to burn through your boost, since you're liable to send yourself speeding into a guardrail in some cases when you do. The game's boost system uses a secondary charge that's activated a moment after the initial activation.

Brilliant studios have been tasked with building new games with the explicit purpose of expanding Fortnite's ecosystem. These new Fortnite releases are sort of the inverse of that. It's sometimes been the case where a game on another maker-game platform like Roblox gets so popular that an outside studio acquires it in a buyout. After playing them myself at a press event ahead of their staggered launch dates this week, I've trained myself to not call them "modes," as any one of them would make sense as a standalone game. Lego Fortnite, Rocket Racing, and Fortnite Festival come from Epic, Psyonix, and Harmonix, respectively, and they exist as new games found exclusively within Fortnite.
