How is it played? Fortnite: Battle Royale is an online shooter where 100 players compete against each other on a shrinking map. Teams can also be formed. In the end, there can only be one winner, or one winning team.
After jumping over the map, players collect not only equipment and weapons but also resources to build walls or structures that provide protection and can be used tactically.
How does the title make money? Players purchase so-called V-Bucks for real money. These can be used to buy cosmetic items like “skins” that give the characters a different appearance. Emotes can also be acquired for V-Bucks.
Additionally, players can purchase a Battle Pass for each game season for V-Bucks. This pass includes cosmetic items that are unlocked gradually.
Players also face challenges that help them progress in the Battle Pass and unlock more cosmetic skins and emotes.
