Fortnite. The one language that any gamer can speak. You hear it being screamed in the chat. Your friend that has multiple accounts won\u2019t shut up about it. AND LORD ALMIGHTY THE MEMES.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortnite is made up of different franchises. This is pretty much the only game where you can see Spiderman smoke Darth Vader in front of Master Chief, while Batman and Joker throw up hands in the background. It\u2019s got something for any fan! You\u2019ve got Halo, Doom, DC, Dragon Ball, Marvel, Star Wars, Rick and Morty, LeBron James, Alien, Terminator, even Attack on Titan!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But what do you do with all these diverse character choices and over 15 million players sitting in their parent\u2019s basements sipping Mountain Dew? How about you throw them onto an island filled with weapons that even God fears and let them fight until only 1 person or team remains (cue the #1 Victory Royal Griddy). While you aren\u2019t watching a giant robot kicking giga ice monster tooshie, you get to experience a ring of imminent death slowly forcing bloodthirsty players towards each other. If you are imagining the Hunger Games, you are not far off the mark. Players catch the \u2018Battle Bus\u2019 (basically, an airborne bus with a balloon and a jet engine) and select their drop location. The aim of the game is to survive until you are the last one standing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apart from all the reality resets, Fortnite is just tons of fun to play with friends. As many people have found out, \u2018emotes bring the funny.\u2019 These wacky expressions of oneself can make even the most serious of characters want to crawl back into the primordial soup. And most of the time, Fortnite is just about seeing how dumb you can be while sending other players packing. From hunting anime characters to defying the Star Wars lore by making Stormtroopers actually hit their targets, the possibilities are endless!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So pick your landing zone and prepare for an insane and gripping Battle Royale!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
