Fortnite is an online video game developed by Epic Games and released in 2017. It is available in three distinct game mode versions that otherwise share the same general gameplay and game engine: Fortnite Battle Royale, a free-to-play battle royale game in which up to 100 players fight to be the last person standing; Fortnite: Save the World, a cooperative hybrid tower defense-shooter and survival game in which up to four players fight off zombie-like creatures and defend objects with traps and fortifications they can build; and Fortnite Creative, in which players are given complete freedom to create worlds and battle arenas.

Save the World and Battle Royale were released in 2017 as early access titles, while Creative was released on December 6, 2018. While the Save the World and Creative versions have been successful for Epic Games, Fortnite Battle Royale in particular became an overwhelming success and a cultural phenomenon, drawing more than 125 million players in less than a year, earning hundreds of millions of dollars per month. Fortnite as a whole generated $9 billion in gross revenue up until December 2019.

Save the World is available only for Windows, macOS,PlayStation 4, and Xbox One, while Battle Royale and Creative were released for all those platforms, and also for Nintendo Switch, iOS,and Android devices. The game also launched with the release of the next-generation PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S consoles.

The Island is a giant party in Fortnite Chapter 3 – Season 3: Vibin’. Bounce around in the new Reality Falls biome, get a thrill on the Screwballer coaster, go for a wildlife ride, and more. It’s time to spread good vibes in Season 3!

The Reality Tree has blossomed on the Fortnite Island, forming the Reality Falls biome! Survey its lush forests of purple trees and bouncy mushrooms, as well as the loot cavern underneath its famous falls.

Reality Seed Pods are spreading from the Reality Tree — plant a Reality Seed to grow a Reality Sapling! These Saplings produce better loot each time you weed them, so keep weeding your sapling until it bears loot of the Mythic variety.

Have a sapling already planted? Throw a Reality Seed to teleport the sapling to where it lands! Have a green thumb? Check the map to see your sapling’s status, and when it’s ready to be picked. When your sapling eventually wilts away, it’ll leave behind a Reality Seed for you to plant.

The Baller is back! Roll around the Island, grapple onto surfaces, and get on the new (and definitely safe) Screwballer coaster for a high-flying experience.

The Baller’s been updated since its last appearance on the Island. It has more Health, can float on water, and runs on Battery charge. Try to find a new Baller before your current one’s out of juice!

Ballers have made a long-awaited comeback, but how about a brand new way to get around? Mount wolves or boars to ride atop them in battle! You can even don your weapons while riding for some mounted combat.

Display your combat ability with brand new weapons! Hit hard with the Hammer Assault Rifle, (powerful at many ranges) deal a double-punch with the Two-Shot Shotgun, which launches a burst of two powerful shots, and go the distance with the Designated Marksman Rifle, a new weapon class altogether.

Also, grab some returning favorites in this Season like Heavy Sniper Rifles, Striker Burst Rifles, Shockwaves, and Rift-To-Gos!

The Storm hasn’t stopped brewing in Season 3. In fact, it’s more dangerous than ever! Sticking around in the Storm too long cumulatively in a match will inflict you with a new aliment: Storm Sickness. This speeds up the toll the Storm takes on your Health.

Storm Sickness won’t take you by surprise, as you’ll be notified if you’re getting close to getting it. The cure for Storm Sickness is simply exiting the Storm. When you’re cured of it, be careful not to let the Storm touch you because you’ll instantly be afflicted again if it catches you.
