The Rise Of Fortnite

 

What a ride it has been, and it is only just beginning. We take a look back at Fortnite to revisit the great additions, major changes and crazy new toys that the game has delivered in just its first two years. 

 

Whether you are a relatively new player looking to find out what happened before you jumped in or a veteran who has been scoring Victory Royales since the very start, you are sure to find plenty of amazing events, memories, insights, refreshers and moments in our review. 

 

Fortnite’s sudden and ongoing dominance of the battle royale scene wasn’t just a lucky accident. Far from it: The game was built on a number of core pillars designed to make its reign unshakable, and Epic has been toiling away behind the scenes ever since the game first released to grow it into something even bigger and better.

 

The colourful art style and accessible gameplay aren’t the only reasons people keep piling back onto the Battle Bus in record numbers, so let’s break down five of the main factors that helped define this modern-day success story…

 

Constant Evolution

New things are added as often as every day, plus there are regular seasonal updates. Everything can be altered overnight – the weapon selection, the map itself, the modes on offer, even the way the game works – giving players something to look forward to.

 

Relentless Pace

Everything in Fortnite moves fast. Matchmaking is near-instant, and games have almost no downtime from the moment you board the Battle Bus to when you check out early or manage to come out on top. Players need to be just as speedy when completing their daily and weekly challenges.

 

Complete Freedom

A vast open map to explore, tons of weapons and items to find and use, a wide assortment of different game modes and team sizes… every aspect of Fortnite allows players to do what they want, when they want.

 

Personal Expression

Just as the game is laid out in such a way that players can approach the action in whatever way they like, the varied closet of imaginative outfits and over cool cosmetic items lets everyone express themselves visually.

 

Brilliant Building

One aspect that sets Fortnite apart is the simplicity and the importance of building. This tends to be what distinguishes a great player, as they are able to throw up towers in seconds and get the high ground advantage.
