Fortnite is a video game developed by Epic Games and was released in 2017.
The game could be played on different types of consoles, such as PlayStation, gaming PC, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch. Using these platforms, players can take part in a Battle Royale where they go against other people online and try to obtain the last kill to win, whether with squads, trios, duos, or solos.
The development of the game grew so much throughout the years, and within that course of time, the game added new features and new skins. With numerous additions made to the game, many fans complained, stating they wanted the “old” Fortnite back.
Older fans wanted to feel the nostalgia of playing the game again. In response to their fans, Fortnite listened and made a big announcement of releasing the original map, a move that sparked excitement and anticipation among players.
This circulated everywhere, and everyone was preparing for the new release on Nov. 3.
The original map featured iconic locations such as Greasy Grove, Flush Factory, Shifty Shafts, Tilted Towers, Loot Lake, Pleasant Park, Lazy Lakes, Tomato Temple, and more. With the upcoming update, players can relive the past of season by season. Scheduled to end on Dec. 2, the entire month of November will serve as a nostalgic journey, revisiting past seasons. This was a smart move from Epic Games because it rekindled many memories within the Fortnite community.
There was also a theory going around about the first Fortnite cover, where the skins are behind a wall in battle. The cover that is shown today reveals what’s happening behind the wall, which is a very genius idea.
Over 44.7 million people have joined to play this game, and according to live stats, more than 6.1 million players were simultaneously enjoying the game at once.
