Viral LEGO Fortnite XP glitch gets patched in hours after player surge

Fortnite Chapter 6 is here and changes things drastically when it comes to Battle Pass and XP progression. Earning XP in any Fortnite mode now levels up your Battle Pass, LEGO Pass, and Music Pass, all simultaneously.

While this is a move made by Epic to simplify passes and XP for Fortnite players who like to grind to get their hands on these exclusive free rewards, some are purely abusing the system to use XP glitches to level up faster.

Among those methods, a new LEGO mode method has emerged in Chapter 6 that is already leveling up players and granting them enough XP to progress 30 levels further. But Epic has since patched the glitch.

Fortnite patches AFK XP Glitch for LEGO mode in Chapter 6

Fortnite has just now introduced a patch to remove the exploit that players were using earlier today in LEGO Fortnite to gain large amounts of XP and progress along their Battle Pass faster.

In order to carry out the glitch, players had to create a Sandbox world and turn Player Eliminations Off and then launch the world in a random seed. Once you spawn, just move your character every 15 minutes or use a controller to keep the sticks tied to a position where your character keeps moving.

Now go AFK for around 2.5 hours and return to your screen. Then return to lobby and you’ll see the insane amounts of XP granted to you as you’ll have progressed about 20 levels on your Battle Pass.

However now the glitch has been patched as Epic has changed the AFK XP value in LEGO Fortnite from 1,900 XP in a minute to 1 XP in a minute and removed XP being rewarded 2.5 hours later, according to iFireMonkey.

But if you managed to get inside your Sandbox world already and haven’t updated your game yet, you can easily attempt the glitch and use it to enjoy the riches.
