There is a fairly sick new Fortnite Inventive 2.0 map that is gotten a variety of traction this week, and for good reason–the Lucky Block Arena free-for-all map by Rafa To Ja is a refreshing remix of an outdated Inventive formulation.
Fortnite’s Inventive 2.0, powered by the Unreal Editor for Fortnite, remains to be so new that creators are persevering with to determine what precisely they will do with it. For now, meaning most Fortnite Inventive maps made with UEFN are principally the identical sorts of issues creators had been making earlier than, however with new bells and whistles that weren’t potential beforehand. In different phrases, Inventive 2.0 is extra evolution than revolution to date. The Fortunate Block Enviornment is a high-quality instance of that form of factor.
You and the opposite gamers will spawn by yourself floating platforms above an enviornment, a format that Fortnite creators love to make use of for all types of various video games. Normally these contain constructing, however the Fortunate Block Enviornment doesn’t.

The place this map innovates is the way it turns a regular Inventive deathmatch formulation on its head. There are numerous deathmatch maps through which you will begin with some blue-quality weapons and beat different gamers to earn cash to purchase higher weapons from a big choice of merchandising machines–like The Pit, for instance. However the Fortunate Block Enviornment would not allow you to select what weapons to make use of.
As a substitute, you will spend your cash from defeated enemies to open bins that offer you random weapons. You may select what high quality you want–higher qualities require extra coins–and it’s also possible to open bins which have devices and different gadgets. And on high of that, when you soar into the free-for-all enviornment, you will discover numerous power-up bins, like harm multipliers. And there are definitely different surprises to be found–like the occasional look of a low-gravity space.
This will not sound extremely spectacular, however that is as a result of this map is essentially a below-the-surface, quality-of-life evolution: These bins are customized belongings that do issues that can’t be accomplished with the outdated Inventive instruments. They are not doing something notably surprising or astounding, however Rafa To Ja mainly needed to invent them (or they borrowed the concept from whoever did).
Past that, the Fortunate Block Enviornment is solely a well-designed free-for-all map that is enjoyable to play on. So, not like lots of the new Inventive 2.0 maps, this one is definitely sensible and enjoyable and will develop into a long-term group favorite–rather than being an amusing tech demo, like a lot of the different Inventive 2.0 maps we have seen to date.
