Am I out of the loop? What does this mean to port games to another game?
Is fortnite like a platform now rather than just the battle royale game?
Fortnite is like roblox now, it has tons of user generated games inside of it (created using the fornite edition of unreal editor) and multiple epic created games
Yeah basically new game modes. Rocket Racing is an arcade racer, Fortnite Festival is a rock band like rhythm game, both are entirely independent from battle royale but still integrated into fortnite eco system with skins and characters going between them. This is the metaverse vision that Sweeney never stops talking about coming to fruition.
So we’re heading into the shitty Ready Player One dystopian timeline but it’s gonna be in Fortnite?

It wasn't even originally a battle royale game. Before that was a co-op base defense/survival game with resource collection and building elements. Kind of a limited, kid friendly 7 days to die.
