Fortnite: Battle Royale Dev Update Dives Into Competitive Play, E3, And More (VIDEO)
There is absolutely no escaping the powerhouse that Fortnite is these days. The popular Epic Games title is taking over the world, one Victory Royale at a time. That being said, the dev team recently provided a supply llama (in the form of a video) for fans looking to the future.
In the video posted to the game’s Twitter page, the recently added Solo Showdown Limited Time Mode is discussed. Many fans were pleased to see the arrival of this brief competitive event because it provides hope for the future of comp play in Fortnite. Smith then touches on the celebrity Pro-Am event that will be taking place at this year’s E3, saying we’ll be seeing “lots of familiar faces in the Fortnite community.”
