Fortnite originally launched in 2011 as a cooperative survival game where players worked together to protect their base from zombies. It felt like many other games of its kind and didn’t initially gain much attention. However, Fortnite surprised everyone by adding a Battle Royale mode – something the developers hadn’t planned as the main focus. This Battle Royale mode became incredibly popular, eventually overshadowing the original survival game, which was then rebranded as ‘Save the World’. Today, Fortnite is a major part of gaming culture. It’s constantly updated with new content, seasons, and collaborations, and has become a cornerstone of the industry. Few could have predicted, back in 2011, that the 2017 release of Fortnite would have such a huge impact on gaming.
