A Cord is just as important in the world of LEGO Fortnite as it is in the real world. It is a common ingredient in various in-game recipes in the new open-world sandbox mode. While the base requirement for Cords is quite easy to find in the LEGO mode, it also requires a particular device. Having said that, this article will provide everything that players need to know about making Cords in-game.

LEGO Fortnite brings a different dimension to the popular battle royale title. The tie-up with the iconic toy company and bringing over its plastic brick aesthetic to the entire world truly solidifies Epic Games' title's metaverse opportunities.

With the required material and device in place, players need to interact with the Spinning Wheel, select the recipe for Cords, drop Vines, and start the process. Soon, they will have the finished product in hand.

Gamers can also find Cords from chests found while exploring. We still advise them to take the trouble of building a Spinning Wheel at their base so that they can craft Cords with Vines whenever they want. Five Vines make one Cord.
