W ithout a doubt, Fortnite: Battle Royale is the worlds most popular battle royale game on the PC, Mac, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, iPhone, iPad, and Android-based mobile devices. The game has more than 250 million registered players (as of late-March 2019) and offers many unique ways to experience the combat-oriented action.

Its important to understand that when playing Fortnite: Battle Royale, there are no proven steps to follow that will allow you to achieve success during every match. There are always multiple ways to face the challenges encountered while on the island, but some will definitely work better than others. In general, fast reaction time, aiming accuracy, and having the most powerful selection of weapons and tools on hand will help lead you to victory!

Like all battle royale games, during every match you participate in, your main focus should on two things combat and survival . Simply select the Press to Start option to kick off your adventure!

Each time you visit the mysterious island where matches take place, youll need to successfully juggle a wide range of important responsibilities if you want to stay alive long enough to achieve #1 Victory Royale. To do this when playing the Solo game play mode, for example, up to 99 of your enemies must perish during the match and the soldier youre controlling must become the last person alive on the island.

To play Fortnite: Battle Royale (as opposed to Fortnite: Save the World) Select the Battle Royale option. Then, to remain alive during each match, there are many strategies you can and should adopt.

If you consider yourself to be a highly skilled gamer, its possible to land on the island in the heart of a popular point of interest (location), grab a weapon, and immediately confront enemies in firefights. During the match, defeat as many enemy soldiers as possible while simultaneously exploring the island, avoiding the deadly storm, building and managing your arsenal, surviving enemy attacks, and skillfully executing your own attacks on enemies. Shown here, the soldier is about to embark on a dangerous quest into Neo Tilted (formally known as Tilted Towers).

Another approach you can adopt is to land in a remote and less-popular location on the island. Avoid enemy contact during the early stages of a match, and spend time building up your arsenal, as you begin preparing for the End Game (the final minutes of a match when only a few soldiers remain alive).

Fortnite: Battle Royale Offers Multiple Game Play Modes

Whatever your gaming style, Fortnite: Battle Royale offers a handful of different game play modes that allow you to experience the high-intensity combat action on your own, with a partner, as part of a four-soldier squad, or as a member of 50-soldier team, for example.

In addition to the Solo , Duos , Squads , Playground , and Creative game play modes that are always available, Epic Games often introduces limited-time game play modes that offer a wide range of unique challenges.

The Solo game play mode pits your soldier against 99 others, each being controlled in real time by a different gamer. Your objective is to be the last soldier alive at the end of a match.

The Duos game play mode allows you to team up with one gamer to take on up to 98 other enemies on the island. You and your partner must work together, share weapons and resources, and launch well-coordinated attacks to achieve #1 Victory Royale.

The Squads game play mode provides the opportunity to team up with three other gamers to create a four-soldier squad that must defeat 24 other squads during a match to achieve #1 Victory Royale. As always, theres no second or third place. You either win the match or perish trying.

Check out the Creative game play mode if you want to custom design the island from scratch, and then set your own rules of engagement for when you and your fellow gamers participate in matches. You can also experience islands and challenges that other gamers have designed from scratch.

Select Creative and then choose a specific scenario that someone else has created or choose the Start A Server option to design the island from the ground up and determine exactly what happens on it during each match.
