About Fortnite in brief
Fortnite is an online video game developed by Epic Games and released in 2017. It is available in three distinct game mode versions that otherwise share the same general gameplay and game engine. Save the World is available only for Windows, macOS, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One, while Battle Royale and Creative released for all those platforms, and also for Nintendo Switch, iOS, and Android devices. The game is expected to also launch with the release of the next-generation PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series XS consoles. Fortnite Battle Royale in particular became a resounding success – drawing in more than 125 million players in less than a year, earning hundreds of millions of dollars per month. The games are monetized through the use of V-Bucks, in-game currency that can be purchased with real-world funds, but also earned through completing missions and other achievements in Save theWorld.
While Battle Royal and Creative are free-to-play, Save the world is pay- to-play. Epic was looking to get into the games as a service model, and brought in Chinese publisher Tencent to help. Tencent took a large stake in Epic as part of this, leading to the departure of several executives, including Cliff Bleszinski, who had been a key part of FortnITE’s development. Epic opted to release Save the. World as a premium title, bringing it out of early access on June 29, 2018, at the same time that Epic released Fortnites Battle Royale into early access, PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, Playerunknown’s Battle Royale, and Creative. Epic plans to release Fortnile as a paid early access title in July 2019 while gaining feedback from players to improve the game’s player-versus-environment.
