Fortnite, developed by Epic Games and released in 2017, is a free-to-play online video game that has become a cultural phenomenon. It offers multiple game modes, each providing unique gameplay experiences:
- Battle Royale: A player-versus-player mode where up to 100 players compete to be the last one standing. Players scavenge for weapons and resources while the play area gradually shrinks, forcing encounters until only one player or team remains.
- Save the World: A cooperative player-versus-environment mode where players team up to fight off hordes of alien creatures. Players collect resources, build fortifications, and complete missions to protect survivors. Note that this mode requires a purchase.
- Creative: A sandbox mode that allows players to build and design their own islands, games, and experiences using Fortnite’s assets.
- Festival: A rhythm-based mode developed in collaboration with Harmonix, where players can perform and compete in music challenges.
- Ballistic: A tactical first-person shooter mode introduced in December 2024, featuring 5v5 gameplay where teams plant or defuse devices.
Fortnite is available on multiple platforms, including Microsoft Windows, macOS, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, iOS, Android, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and Series S. The game is renowned for its vibrant graphics, engaging mechanics, and frequent collaborations with various artists and brands.
