Does LEGO Fortnite have split screen?
At the time of writing, LEGO Fortnite does not have a split screen option. However, it doesn’t mean that it will never arrive, especially if the demand for it is high. In an official LEGO Fortnite blog post, Epic Games state that split screen is “currently not available,” suggesting that it could go live as part of a future update.
The only way to play LEGO Fortnite with your friends is by online means. You can invite up to seven friends to join you in your world or get invited to join a world owned by a friend. Additionally, you can assign your friends a key to make them Keyholders, allowing them to enter and modify your world at any time, even if you’re offline.
Since you’re in charge of the world you create, you can hand out and remove Keyholder status to whoever you want and as often as you please. With that being said, we recommend only giving a key to your most trusted friends to ensure your world is kept safe and secure.
