Fortnite is everywhere. After starting life as a not-especially-popular survival game, Fortnite blossomed into a full-blown cultural phenomenon once it added a battle royale mode, mimicking the success of PUBG. Since then, the game has only grown in popularity: it expanded to mobile phones, had a crossover event with Avengers: Infinity War, and even got a boost from rap superstar Drake. You can keep up with everything Fortnite-related right here.
