As seen below in the tweet from Fortnite’s official Twitter account, the developers thank all of the fans who have experienced the title, and as an additional show of appreciation, announce that Duos and Supply Drops are now available.

Today, Epic Games confirmed that it will soon be selling its own digital PC game storefront. Called the “Epic Games Store,” the storefront is being considered as a major rival to Valve’s Steam. Like Steam, the Epic Store will feature third-party titles so expect to see games like Fortnite alongside titles from other publishers and developers. Epic has yet to confirm exactly which games will be available at first, but it says that announcements will be made at The Game Awards 2018, which takes place later this week....

Floating Rings This isn’t the first time Fortnite fans have seen these floating ring challenges. In fact, the floating rings challenges have been around for a while now, like back in Season 3, Week 5 at Steamy Stacks. But this time, all these blue, floating, glowing rings are in several locations around Misty Meadows. While three of them are pretty easy to see, there is a fourth, and it is a little more difficult to spot the rest....

Fortnite might also mark the beginning of a new era in modern gaming, however, even if that accolade doesn’t directly relate to its actual gameplay. Epic Games quietly implemented cross-play support to the title today, and it was a surprising feature addition, as Fortnite now supports cross-platform play between Sony’s PS4 and Microsoft’s Xbox One. The notion of cross-play might not be new, but Sony fans would be forgiven for thinking it is - Sony has famously maintained quite a distance from the notion of partnering with Microsoft, despite the latter company’s standing invitation for cross-platform partnerships....

New Fortnite skins based on characters from The Suicide Squad were recently spied in the code by eagle-eyed dataminers, suggesting that fan favorites like King Shark and Weasel might be on their way to join Bloodsport on the frontlines.

Milly said that the ‘Swipe It’ dance in Season 5 of Fortnite is a copy of the dance he created known as the Milly Rock. Epic Games charges $5 for the Swipe It emote. In an interview with CBS, Milly revealed that this was when he decided to take action. Well, now it looks like 2 Milly will indeed take legal action against Epic Games. The Brooklyn-based artist has hired a law firm that has claimed this won’t be the first time they’ve gone against the developer, stating that former NFL player Lenwood “Skip” Hamilton is also pursuing “similar claims” against Epic for their use of his likeness for Cole Train in the Gears of War series....

There is a long and twisted history that comes with Fortnite and cheating. In years past, notable Fortnite players have been caught cheating in major events, and subsequently been stripped of their accolades and earnings. On a much smaller scale, cheaters naturally still appear in casual matches, without much on the line. However, even if it is not a championship match, encountering these types players is not any less annoying....

Players have seen tons of superheroes come to Fortnite Season 4’s crossover event, as well as locations like Tony Stark’s laboratories. There are lots of new challenges and enemies, and some players have gotten creative with the superheroes (like making Wolverine chase down Iron Man), yet not everyone is enjoying the huge amount of content.

With the recent launch of Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 6, here’s an excellent opportunity for players to invite friends back into the game and show them the ropes on the Primal island.

In preface of detailing Fortnite’s Season 3 Week 9 challenges, it is important to mention that all of them are subject to change. While it is not extremely common, leaked challenges are occasionally altered before they go live, and sometimes they do not go live at all. As such, players should not consider this a fully confirmed list of the Week 9 challenges, though it is likely to be extremely close to, if not exactly, the list of challenges that will become available in-game on Thursday....

Season 4 quickly gained attention from fans due to the Nexus War crossover event with Marvel, bringing iconic characters like Wolverine, Thor, and others to the game for the first time. However, the massive Fortnite update also featured a number of other quality of life changes that flew far under the radar, and at least one of them seems to have been left off the patch notes entirely.

Given that AMIE has no material form, she is unable to hold onto paper. This is a problem because the blueprint she took a printout of, which elaborated on her body’s design, was blown away by a strong wind.

Even with Thanos finally leaving Fortnite and a delay with the long-awaited update, Battle Royale has unlocked its third week of challenges for players to tackle. Naturally, one of the challenges is a treasure hunt, tasking players with reading a treasure map and locating a hidden battle star. Thankfully, Reddit has done the heavy lifting with user GamingSoldiers putting together a pretty great map showing the exact treasure spot....

As usual, the location of the week 9 Battle Star is hidden in the Fortnite loading screen that players unlock after completing the week’s challenges. It is a lot more cutesy and relaxed than in previous weeks, with lots of pink hues, and even a lovely rainbow in the background. If players look below the bodacious skateboarder, they’ll spot the Battle Star as part of the graffiti. It’s resting on top of a car surrounded by control posts and ropes, which is exactly how it will appear in-game as well....

The strange connection between Fortnite and Tinder While almost everyone knows Epic as the developers behind Fortnite, and Spotify’s app and company name are identical, some may not know that Match Group is the parent company of over 20 dating apps and websites, including Tinder, OkCupid, and Match.com. On the surface, these apps seem to have very little in common. However, they have a shared interest in avoiding the fees associated with operating on the Apple App Store....

To put things simply, players must visit the highest point on Fortnite’s map in order to find Beskar Steel where the earth meets the sky, and that is a landmark known as Mount Kay. The peak of this mountain is located just southeast of Catty Corner, and fans should keep their eyes peeled for a red flag that is hoisted there. While these details may be enough for some players to easily locate Mount Kay, here is a map for those that need it:...

As part of the Fortnite Week 5 Challenges, players are tasked with visiting three gas stations during a single match. Challenges in the past have asked players to visit certain locations a number of times over the course of the week, but this time all the visits have to happen within the span of one match. That can be a little challenging if you’re running around aimlessly. Luckily, it doesn’t have to be quite that hard....

One theme for a quest that Epic Games likes using is sending players to find multiple gnomes in Fortnite locations like Sweaty Sands. For example, Fortnite tasked the player to find spray-painted designs of robot gnomes in its Season 4, Week 8 challenges.
