Fortnite s First
Mode
W hen the first version of Fortnite was released
on July 25, 2017, it was very different from
the version of the game that hundreds of
millions of players know and love today. The 100-player,

environment) mode, while Battle Royale is a PvP
(player versus player) mode.
You will battle against hundreds of computer

mission.
competitive Battle Royale mode was nowhere to be
found. Neither was Creative mode, which allows
players to create their own Fortnite levels and game
modes. There was only Save the World mode.
Save the World is the original Fortnite mode.
Instead of competing against each other, Save the
World players team up to defend against waves of
computer-controlled enemies. To win, they need to
gather supplies, craft useful gear, and build defensive
structures.
UNOFFICIAL GUIDES
When the game developers at Epic Games
started working on Fortnite back in 2011, they wanted
to create a game that focused on wilderness survival
and defense. In fact, they did not start working on the
Battle Royale mode at all until after Save the World
was released. The two modes are closely related,
though. When Epic started working on Battle Royale,
they wanted to include many of Save the Worlds most
unique features. This is why Battle Royale players have

to scavenge for gear, gather materials, and
master the art of building.
While Battle Royale has become the most popular
mode of Fortnite , Save the World still has a lot of fans.
This is because its a lot of fun! If you like the fast
paced action and strategic building of Battle Royale,
you will probably enjoy Save the World as well. Many
of the weapons and other gear are the same in both
modes. The building system also works pretty much
the same way, and you shouldnt have any trouble

learning the controls of one mode if youve played
the other. However, Save the World still has a lot of
unique features that set it apart from Battle Royale. It
is a much more complex version of Fortnite , and there
is a lot to keep track of as you play. For example, there
are countless things to collect, build, and craft. And
almost every item or character you come across can
be upgraded . If you are new to Save the World, it can

Making Friends
Save the World is designed to be a cooperative, or co-op, game. Whenever you start a
new mission, you will see that up to three other players can join you. If you have friends
who play the game, you can team up and battle alongside each other. This can make
some of the tougher missions in Save the World a lot easier. It is also just a lot of fun to
play with other people.
If your friends dont play Save the World, or if they arent online when you want to
play, you dont have to worry. The game will automatically try to find other players to
join you when you start a mission. This can be a great way to find more players to add
to your in-game friends list.
If you want to play missions by yourself, thats okay too. Things might be a little
tougher, but with the right gear and enough practice, you can handle it.
all seem overwhelming at first. But with plenty of
practice and a few tips to help you get started, youll
soon be saving the world with the best of them.
Epic Games continues to make changes and
additions to Save the World, just as they do to Fortnite s
other modes. This means the game just keeps getting
better and better, and there is always more to do. Any
time is a great time to dive into Save the World mode,
so lets get started!
