Can you have multiple villages in LEGO Fortnite? – Answered

The mayor of two towns. Is that even a thing?

Sure, having your town in LEGO Fortnite is excellent, but… can we have another one?

After all, the whole point of the game is to build and survive in a hostile world, and limiting the player to just one settlement seems like a wrong design choice. Fortunately, that isn’t the case. I’ll tell you how to build multiple villages in LEGO Fortnite.

What can you do in a village in LEGO Fortnite?

While you technically don’t need a village to enjoy LEGO Fortnite, you’ll miss out on many things without one. A village acts as your safe hub zone. Here, you can build structures, store recipes, spend the night, and, more importantly, have NPC neighbors

Unlike most games, your NPC neighbors won’t just wander around. They can be pretty helpful by gathering resources, refining them, giving gifts, and teaching new recipes. So, while they aren’t necessary, villages are useful in LEGO Fortnite.

Yes, you can. You can have as many villages as you want. 

The only condition is that your new village isn’t close to one of your established villages. To test this out, I tried to make a new village close to my existing one, and sure enough, the game wouldn’t let me. I then moved back until I could barely see my first village, and still, the game wouldn’t let me. 

I wanted to test the distance, so I found a mountain that overlooked my first village and climbed it. After clearing out the wolf residents on top of the mountain, I placed the Village marker and became the proud owner of my second village. The best part is that I could see my first village from my new one.

Why would you want to have multiple villages in LEGO Fortnite?

Other than just making your word feel more populated, there is one apparent reason why you would want more villages in LEGO Fortnitemore resources. One village can only hold so many villagers, but another can have just as many. 

Just imagine, you could have a lumber village that’s only focused on gathering wood, another one where your NPCs tend crops, and maybe even a quarry village where everyone does nothing but break rocks all day. You may also want a heavily fortified village to protect all your other villages.

Tip: Try different biomes

Building and starting villages in different biomes is a way to maximize every village, getting to hone in on something at least slightly different from another. Each village has a unique purpose to an extent, and since you have to distance your villages from each other anyway, choosing different biomes is a good strategy.


As you can tell, there are plenty of reasons why you would want more villages in LEGO Fortnite, and I’m very glad the new Fortnite lets us build as many as we want.
