Epic Games is thrilled to announce the newest game mode officially coming to Fortnite players on Sept. 26th: Fortnite Battle Royale featuring up to 100 players at once. It will be one giant map. Featuring Fortnite’s building skills and destructible environments will be now combined with an intense PvP combat. Prepare as the last commander standing wins.
Battle Royale mode is now in Public Test for Fortnite players and Epic Games is encouraging players to help testing the mode. In order to participate players need to open the game and select Battle Royale. But be aware as Epic Games is expecting the servers to probably break and be other crashes and bugs during the Public Test.
Check out the Trailer:
“Yeah, we made a PvP mode for Fortnite. We love Battle Royale games like PUBG and thought Fortnite would make a great foundation for our own version. A few months ago Epic’s Unreal Tournament team began experimenting with the mode while the original Fortnite team kept updating the core game. To maintain game balance we kept the PvP mode completely separate from the PvE mode. The new Battle Royale mode was so much fun we decided to share it with everyone to get feedback.
This is also a great time for new Fortnite players to jump in because for one week only we have a 25% discount on our Standard and Deluxe Edition Founder’s Packs. (Sale runs from Sept. 12-18.)
We are really excited about Fortnite Battle Royale and can’t wait for you to play it. This is just the first version of the mode, and we will update Battle Royale and the core Fortnite game throughout our Early Access period and into launch. We are excited to grow the game with you and thank you for joining us on the adventure.
The battle is building. Good luck!“
