#3: Cross-Platform

“Fortnite” is available to play on almost every gaming platform. As your playing on your PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC, Mac, or mobile device, you may not realize it, but you might have some players who are on other devices. Basically, you can play with almost anyone, no matter what device they’re on. However, for the servers to function properly and keep matches fair, there are a few restrictions on this, such as Solo matches only taking place on the same platform you’re on. With the game boasting 3.4 million concurrent players, there’s always a game waiting for you to join!
#2: Stream Friendly
The battle royal genre has always done well with streaming, but those games can have a lot of downtime between dropping in, looting, and making your way to a fight. But Fortnite keeps the intensity up, with a smaller, more open map and faster paced combat. This makes it an enormous amount of fun to watch on Twitch and those big, wacky moments that make good streaming entertainment come up often. More so than most other shooters, Fortnite is really easy to get into and follow for audiences, even if they don't play the game themselves. Plus, Epic games keeps really involved in the community, and it's only a matter of time before we get a skin based off Ninja.

The only time you have to spend money is if you see a customizable item you really want, or if you don’t have enough V-bucks to get the season’s Battle Pass. Even if you have given the game a shot and didn’t enjoy it, at least you didn’t throw away forty to sixty bucks, so whats the harm in trying?
