LEGO Fortnite worlds are a great way to connect with friends, but after a long gaming session, the server needs a break. Here’s everything you need to know about server lifetime, including causes and fixes.

Fortnite’s new survival-based game mode has gone through turbulent waters in the last few weeks.

The game was released on December 7 and crushed player count numbers. However, as time passed, players begged developers for updates and began leaving the game over build limits.

However, for those who enjoy eating berries and collecting wood, here’s how to keep playing during long hours.

How to fix LEGO Fortnite server lifetime

An announcement in the top left-hand corner of the screen will talk about the current world’s ‘server lifetime’ after being in the world for several hours. This will be followed by a countdown of how long the server will remain active until shutting down.

Typically, the counter will be around the hour to 45-minute mark when the announcement is made. While it may seem like LEGO Fortnite is putting a timer on your gameplay, the system is in place to ensure world stability.

To reset the timer, all players in the world have to exit the game and go back to the lobby. Once there, the players can join the world again, resetting the timer for another few hours.

This method can be repeated multiple times to reset the server’s lifetime countdown. As long as the world is refreshed by coming in and out, all players can remain in the game.

Will the LEGO Fortnite server lifetime undo your progress?

No, when the LEGO Fortnite server resets, you won’t lose any progress. Everything you’ve made—buildings, objects, and locations—will remain just as you left them. All you need to do is log back in when the server refreshes, and everything will be just as it was before.
