After the huge success of the chaotic 50vs50 game mode in Fortnite: Battle Royale, many players wished for a permanent return. That hasn’t worked out, but there is still an encore – even if only for a few days!
Players have clearly expressed in various forums and channels that they want a comeback of the chaotic 50vs50 variant of Fortnite: Battle Royale – preferably permanently. Due to its popularity, Epic has now decided to bring the game mode back for at least a few days over Christmas.
Sink into chaos over Christmas
More specifically, the chaos started again on December 23 at 2 PM. In a team of up to 49 players, you go against the enemy squad. Including marauding gangs and swept clean cities.
In the test, the mode left us with mixed feelings – however, the majority had a blast. You can now play the mode throughout the entire holiday season. The exact action period starts on December 23 at 2:00 PM and ends on December 28, as Epic announced in a Twitter message:
Once again, Epic demonstrates an understanding of the community’s wishes. It is not impossible that the mode will eventually be available permanently. Meanwhile, Epic is already working on an overhaul of the current weapon system, which is expected early in 2018.
Early players have already been able to experience the new weapon balance unintentionally, and they have exciting news to share! In addition, you can continue to participate in the Christmas event and collect the rewards that are available in the second season.
Will you be playing Fortnite over the holidays? What did you think of the 50vs50 mode?
