    Fortnite is a world of multiple experiences. Drop onto the island and compete until you are the last players (or teams) standing. Create a custom island with your own rules. Hang out with your friends on an island created by one of your friends. Or eliminate hordes of monsters with other players to save the world.

    WAYS TO PLAY FORTNITE

    There are thousands of games available in Fortnite. Some have been created by Epic Games, but many others have sprung from the imaginations of creators in the community. The game includes: Battle Royale, Zero Build (Battle Royale without building), Community Created Creative games, and Save the World. 

    BATTLE ROYALE

    In Fortnite Battle Royale, get off the Battle Bus, drop onto the island and fight until no one else is left standing. You can also team up with your friends or other players to outlast your opponents. Use wood, brick and metal as materials to build structures to help you survive.

    There is always something to do in Fortnite Battle Royale: new items, weapons, vehicles, modes, special events and seasons. Each new season brings a distinctive theme to the island, such as the domination of secret agents or a massive flood.

    ZERO CONSTRUCTION

    Fortnite’s Zero Build mode puts you to the test to show off your traversal skills and how you deal with weapons and items. This Fortnite game is pretty much like Battle Royale, but without the build. Players have the Rechargeable Total Shield as a method of defense to help them stay behind cover. Fight stubbornly and go on the offensive!

    CREATIVE MODE

    Creative mode puts Fortnite in the palm of your hand. Bring your ideas to life and see how far your skills and imagination can take you. Create unique islands and games and share them with your friends. Create together. Try thousands of games created by people like you and find inspiration.

    SAVE THE WORLD

    In Save the World in Fortnite, you’ll explore a huge, destructible world and team up with other players to contain hordes of monsters. When facing these creatures (called “husks”), you can become stronger thanks to the loot you will find, crafting weapons, taming wild animals or expanding your collection of heroes. Build a base and reinforce it with traps to keep the Husks at bay!
     
    Play Save the World with your friends and other players in the Fortnite community. You can access Save the World by purchasing a Save the World pack , through our website, from within the game itself, or in your console storefront.
