Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 2 comes with quite a change! Apparently, we can’t build in Fortnite anymore.

As shocking as that might be, Epic Games say it isn’t a permanent change, and the classic feature will return in the game at some point. Also, we get not to enjoy new items and mechanics thanks to the Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 2.

Here is what you need to know.

All Battle, No Building in Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 2

Over the years, we’ve witnessed some major changes in Fortnite. New seasons, new Battle Passes, and, of course, new items and other cool features. However, many players had been relying on something quite amazing: the building mechanic.

The arrival of Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 2 comes with many clues and mysteries hidden across the island, but no sign of the building feature anymore. When we’ll see the building mechanic back in Fortnite, and what to expect?

Some sources say that we shouldn’t worry, and even Epic confirmed such a thing.

When Will the Building Mechanic Return in Fortnite Chapter 3?

Those one-by-one boxes that you relied so much upon and that helped you a lot before are nowhere to be found.

When will we see the building mechanic back in Fortnite?

The mechanic is still available in arena, competitive, Team Rumble playlists, and creative, but there’s no sign of it in the normal mode. Overshield has actually replaced it.

According to some leaks, the removal of the building mechanic should return after a while. But how much we’ll have to wait? Popular tipster iFireMonkey shared some details on Twitter. Check out the post:

As you can notice, the building mechanic will make a comeback after nine days or so. That means we’ll get the feature back on March 29.

Remember that Epic Games didn’t confirm that date, so you better take everything with a pinch of salt.
