Fortnite has launched an entirely new "creative" mode, entirely separate from the battle royale it became famous for.
In the latest update, players will be given the ability to stop trying to kill each other and instead work together to create entirely new worlds in which they can do whatever they want.
The new features will arrive in the upcoming Season 7, developers Epic said in a blog post that introduced the new mode.
"It’s a brand new way to experience the world of Fortnite, available on December 6. Design games, race around the island, battle your friends in new ways and build your dream Fortnite," it wrote in its post. "It’s all happening on your own private island where everything you make is saved."
The feature will first roll out on 7 December, when all players with the paid-for battle pass will be given access to their own private island, onto which they can invite friends. A week later, it will be released to all players, giving everyone their own private island for free.
As time goes on, a whole host of updates will come to the new game mode, Epic said.
"Fortnite Creative is new and exciting, but not final," it wrote. "We’ll be adding many new features and improvements over the next few updates. Like Battle Royale and Save the World, we’re committed to making this bigger and better over time."
