LEGO Fortnite Codex Explained
The Codex is a resource that players can access inLEGO Fortniteby opening up their inventory and heading over to the Codex tab.
Though tied to the player’s inventory, the Codex serves as acomprehensive catalog of various game elements. When players encounter new items, resources, food, creatures, or enemies, corresponding entries will be added to the Codex. While many completionists might view the Codex as just a collection tool, it actually offers some practical in-game benefits as well.
One particularly useful feature of the Codex is its ability todisplay crafting recipes for tools, weapons, food, and equipmentwithout the need to access a Crafting Bench. It alsodetails which Utility Station is required for crafting each item, helping players strategize to maximize their yield of specific items. Additionally, the Codex provides information on the locations ofsought-after materials like Obsidianand Blast Core, making it much easier to gather said resources.
But that’s not all. While the Codex will only display detailed information on items and resources players have already discovered, it alsooffers useful hints on how to find other entriesthat are not yet cataloged. This feature can guide players in the right direction, should they find themselves struggling toacquire specific tools, weapons, or other items.
