Epic games are tantalizing Fortnite fans with a new item called the Port-A-Fortress, the big sister to their previous Port-A-Fort which allowed players to build forts on the fly in a valiant effort to save their backside from rockets and the onslaught of bullets.

During the PAX West stream, Epic Games has revealed the Fortnite Grappler, a new item that lets you meticulously zip across the map with apparent ease.

For those who have been wanting the Solid Gold game mode to come back to Fortnite, like me, then there is some good news. Today, developer Epic Games released a new update for the popular Battle Royale shooter that re-enables the hectic game mode and adds a couple more surprises. For those that don’t know, Solid Gold
Fortnite fatigue is a real and valid feeling—for every person neck deep in V-Bucks, there is another person who will simply say “it’s okay,” as they would with any other crazy fad that those darn kids are into. The fact of the matter is that Fortnite is everywhere, whether you like it or not. Fortnite
Ever since the game’s Battle Royale mode was released, Fortnite has had a bit of a tradition of randomly adding small features and hints to the map before the next content season starts, and today is no different. At a random point today, the in-game map updated once again and it added something completely out of left field,
You’re on your own, out in the storm. No Jump Pad, no ATK or shopping cart. And that’s when you remember: Fortnite has portals that drop you from the sky. Today’s news is simply that Epic Games is making a version of the rift which can fit in your inventory. The Rift-To-Go was recently teased
Ever since Season 5 of Fortnite started a little more than a month ago, the game’s map has been littered with small little rift portals that, when jumped into, will automatically transport you to the top of the map, allowing you to activate your glider once more. Now, for some reason, Epic Games has detected a bug
Early this morning, patch v5.21 for Fortnite was officially released to the world, and it contained some pretty awesome stuff, to say the least. What’s not awesome though, is that Epic Games, the developer behind the massively popular shooter, is reporting an increase in crashes after the update’s release, so be wary. Luckily, the developer has identified the
A few days ago it was revealed that the Heavy Sniper Rifle would be making its way into the game in just a couple of days. While it may be a day later than expected (Fortnite usually updates on Tuesdays), v5.21 of the massively popular game is finally here, and like the other patches for the game,
A few weeks back two new weapons were datamined in Fortnite. One of them was a double barrel shotgun, while the other was a new sniper rifle. Last week the shotgun was added to the game, however, there was no news about the new sniper rifle. That all changed this weekend as developer Epic Games has officially
NBA superstar (if you’d call him that) Paul George debuted a new pair of his signature Nike PG 2.5’s earlier this year during the E3 Fortnite Pro-Am tournament that fans have since referred to as his Fortnite shoes. Even though there’s no direct collaboration between Epic and Nike on these shoes — unlike the PG PlayStation branded Nike’s —
Developer Drastic Games is ready to make their debut with Soundfall. Formed by alumni from Epic Games, with veterans who worked on the immensely popular Fortnite, Gears of War, and the now-dead Paragon, the team finally unveiled their first project: a rhythm-based dungeon crawler with a procedurally-generated environment. The game, according to a press release by Drastic,

It seems that the ongoing success of the battle royale genre is not exclusively self-contained. Instead, games such as Fortnite and PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds are positively impacting external companies. Gaming headset company Turtle Beach has released the figures for their second quarter of the fiscal year with overwhelmingly positive results. The financial report shows that the
The Fortnite train can’t be stopped. After the massive success the game has gotten it’s no wonder Epic Games keep updating the game with new items and tomorrow will be no exception.

Fortnite might be the most popular game in the world right now, but it sure as heck wasn’t always this way. In fact, there was a time when I wondered if Fortnite was still even slated to release.

The weapon first appeared via popular Fortnite stat tracker and datamining source Stormshield.One and appears to be able to pierce through the first wall it hits. The drawback is that, compared

Another week, another crazy story about just how much money Fortnite is raking in for Epic Games.
