The Fortnite team has been hard
at work on a special project
we are excited to reveal.
At Epic, we are huge fans of
the battle royale genre in games
like PUBG and H1Z1,
and we thought Fortnite was the
perfect world to build one in.
Fortnite Battle Royale is the
new 100-person PVP mode
coming to early access
players on September 26th.
So we thought if we
took Fortnite's dynamic,
destructible world and its
unique building mechanics and
then combine that with what's
best about the battle royale
genre, we could create
something that was amazing.
Fortnite Battle
Royale is the 100-player,
last man standing PVP experience
you know so well
but combined with the
limitless world of Fortnite.
Everyone starts in the Battle
Bus
with a glider and a pickaxe.
But from there, how
you win is up to you.
There's tons of weapons,
traps to take out
unsuspecting opponents,
and a huge map to
build whatever you can imagine.
We've had such a blast
playing this mode internally,
and we can't wait to
get you in the game.
Starting right now, all Fortnite
players can get into the
Battle Royale public test
and start playing.
The battle is building.
See you in-game.
