Nelle ultime ore Epic ha annunciato alcuni interessanti dati riguardanti Fortnite.
Il titolo degli sviluppatori di Gears of War infatti è già noto per essere un successo ma, stando a quanto annunciato da Epic, Fortnite avrebbe addirittura superato la cifra di 20 milioni di giocatori dalla sua data di lancio, comprendenti con ogni probabilità sia gli utenti della versione a pagamento che quelli della Battle Royale free to play.
Di seguito vi lasciamo il filmato celebrativo che accompagna l’annuncio.
Gli sviluppatori però non si sono adagiati sugli allori, e anzi hanno già dichiarato di essere al lavoro su una nuova corposa patch, sia per correggere gli errori e i bug del gioco, sia per introdurre il Season Shop, dove i giocatori potranno acquistare determinati oggetti in base al livello del loro personaggio. Di seguito vi lasciamo uno specchietto che illustra nello specifico la faccenda, seguito dalla patch Notes completa.
- Level 5 – Glider : Aerial Assault One
- Level 15 – Outfit : Aerial Assault Trooper
- Level 20 – Outfit : Renegade Raider
- Level 35 – Pickaxe : Raider’s Revenge
