Fortnite is a relatively (or it was at the time of writing this post) new PvE & PvP game released by Epic Games for the PS4, Xbox One and PC. To play it’s PvE mode, you must purchase into it’s early access.
However, the Battle Royale mode is currently free on all platforms!
During 2018, Epic Games will make the PvE version of the game free to play for everyone. If you do decide to purchase into the early access, it’s a great way to earn some V-Bucks that can transfer over to the Battle Royale version of the game. You also get a Founders umbrella skin upon winning a game in BR.
Fortnite has caused quite a storm, with the creators of Player Unknown: Battlegrounds expressing their concern at the similarities between the two games. Since then, they have dropped the lawsuit they had.
Back in September of 2017, Bluehole stated that they where considering taking further action against Epic Games for the similarities between Fortnite and PUBG. Although at this point in time, it seems no further action has been taken.
