Customer Ratings & Reviews

Be clear when purchasing Fortnite, you're purchasing entry into the Beta- a highly polished and fun Beta, but this may not be the totality of what will be released. You also need to be aware that Fortnite will be released as a free game sometime in 2018. Besides the early entry, you'll be getting a bunch of permanent bonuses that you won't receive if you wait. Of course, by "free," Fortnite will make its bones via microtransactions, which are already in place, but truly, I've felt no need to purchase anything to stay playing. Gameplay is both fun and a new spin on old things, but the flipside of this is with various styles in play, (3rd person shooting, base building, tower defense, harvesting resources, and vast card collecting system, as well as leveling every aspect within,) it can get complicated, and the tutorial in how these systems play together is lacking, very severely at times. Make sure you have access to the internet and your phone, as you're inevitably going to come across periods in the game that you'll want to have explained better. It should also be noted that the game is primarily considered a multiplayer affair, working co-op with up to 3 other players. That said, it is (in my first week of play,) easily enjoyed solo, and I have not failed any mission so far while playing solo. (Although some bonus objectives that are timed will be unachievable on your own. You can however, return to missions with others if you choose to solo initially to familiarize yourself). The game has a lighthearted, fun art style that I love. (Think Team Fortress 2 or even Overwatch). The various types of "Husks" (their version of zombies,) come in all flavors (my personal favorite are the basic ones, that have their faces pulled back over their head at the mouth, making it appear they're wearing hoodies,) with unique looks and abilities, and the game has no blood. If it wasn't for the complicated systems in place, it would be a safe game for younger gamers to play. All this said, I love this game, for its better or worse in Beta. I would absolutely recommend people to buy in, but be active in helping with feedback to make Fortnite hit its potential. Buying in and giving Epic Games (Gears of War, Unreal Tournament,) shouldn't be the only step in the puddle. A week after beginning play, I was sent a survey, which takes about 30-45 minutes to complete. Please, respond and be legit with your answers, as they ask you to be. This game has tons of potential, but there are some things still to be ironed out, those willing to buy in must be willing to give the necessary feedback. Fortnite has also managed to do something I thought near impossible; make harvesting and gathering fun. Just about everything can be broken up (or searched for,) into resources- plants, rocks, mailboxes, furniture, even the houses themselves. (A nod to humor of finding Bacon in bizarre places, like a toilet) and most give exactly what you'd expect. And that's a huge compliment. Exploring the map, where you can enter every home to scavenge, looking for survivors to add to your base, it's all made fun through this bright cartoon-styled art they've chosen. In almost every instance, I'll bypass timed bonuses just to explore every nook and cranny of the map. I look forward to see what else is in store for Fortnite, but it says a lot that I'd still play often if this ended up as the finished product.

It is worth buying the game for the story mode to play with friends

My son played the trial version for PS4 and loved it so I got him the full game for Christmas

It’s Fortnite. Everyone has either played this game or heard of it. I was interested from the announcement about 5 or 6 years ago whenever battle royals wasn’t even in the game. When it released it got mediocre reviews so I decided to pass on it. Then they introduced the battle royals mode and all of the sudden it had taken over the world. I didn’t jump on the bandwagon right away but I did eventually buy the disc version and I don’t regret. It has kind of fallen off but I think it’s still fun even if all of the hype has gone. I continue to keep it on my rotation of games to mix things up. It’s a great game that just succumbed to negativity because it was popular for so long. Give it a chance.

Fortnite is a great game and works great. Happy with my game choice.

I bought this game for the PVE portion, Save the World, its a funny, well done game, lots and lots of crafting, weapons of all descriptions, if you liked Borderlands, you will like this game

Awesome combination of building, strategy and FPS. Some say PTW, but lots of skill too

I bought this for my son and he can't get enough of this game. From the online gameplay to the cool skins that unfortunately cost too much but we purchase some here and there. The open world online play will draw you in as I thought it was too cartoonish for me but now I am hooked!!

I bought this on a whim at release. I've really enjoyed it, the game play is pretty fun if not a little rough around the edges. It is still in early access, so it still has a bunch of issues but is perfectly playable. I have only been playing a few hours a day here and there, but I feel like i am still making progress. The extras that come with this version are really helpful as well.

A great game. I recommend. It it's not expensive. Best buy had it we couldn't find it in no store go for everyone. In the family you have a chance to. Play with people astound the world I recommend. A good choice to purchase it now my child is communicating. More.

We love this game so much. It’s super addicting. I would recommend buying it on the PlayStation store though. If you buy the disk, it has to be in the PlayStation at all times to play it. Buy it online, and it’s downloded onto your PS4. That’s the only regret!

Took a while to get into ...but once you do, it turns out to be a great game, hang in there

My kids are really into this game and I'm very surprised by that.

This game is pretty much like mine craft, fallout, and plants vs zombies combine. You mine like mine craft, build forts like fallout 4 and the zombies are unique and different like plants vs zombies. It's a great co op game

My son was very happy with the game. He enjoyed it.

Great game, would definitely recoment this game!!!

i bought this for my godson, so far he said hes enjoyed the game.

This game is the best thing that I have played in a long time! Seriously, if you dont have this game you need to drop what you are doing and go buy it now. So much fun!!

A very original mix of concepts make the game incredibly fun and addicting. Tons to collect and do. The building aspect adds a terrific variable to the high paced action.

My son loves this game. He has played continuously since Christmas.
