<h2>Fortnite 2021: Map Updates, Skins, System Requirements, and Fortnite Mobile</h2>
<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-522855" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20210121204904/8f9484f10eb14f85a189fb6117a57026-9.jpg" alt="" width="1916" height="1074" />
<h2>What is Fortnite?</h2>
Fortnite is regarded as one of the biggest and most popular games worldwide. The battle royale online video game is practically a survival game where players either team up or go solo. It has three distinct modes, but they share the same game engine and gameplay features.

In Fortnite: Save the World, a maximum of four players can team up to fend off creatures resembling zombies and defend objects by building fortifications made of different materials. It is a shooter-survival co-op game mode.

In Fortnite Battle Royale, up to 100 players combat against each other, trying to out-build and outmaneuver opponents to become the last man standing and secure the victory. It is a free-to-play battle royale mode where players can either jump in alone or in duos and squads.

Meanwhile, in Fortnite Creative, players have the freedom to create their own worlds and battle arenas. It is a sandbox game mode where players can spawn everything within the game on an island.

In 2017, PC Gamer nominated the game for Best Co-op Game<i>.</i> Meanwhile, IGN dubbed it as the Best Spectator Game.

In 2018, the game won the award for Best Ongoing Game by <i>PC Gamer</i> and IGN, the latter of which nominated it for Best Nintendo Switch Game, Best Mobile Game, and Best Action Game.
<h2>History of Fortnite</h2>
<h4>Fortnite Save the World</h4>
Fortnite began in the wake of?Gears of War 3's release around 2011. Around that time, the concept of merging construction games and shooter games arose.

It wasn't all smooth sailing, as development slowed due to several issues. This included switching from the Unreal Engine 3 to Unreal Engine 4. Other issues regarded a more in-depth role-playing game approach to extend the game's life, and an art style switch from a dark theme to a more cartoonish style.

Furthermore, when Chinese publisher Tencent bought a large stake in Epic, it led to the departure of several executives. One notable name in that was Cliff Bleszinski, who had played a crucial role in Fortnite<span class="nowrap">'</span>s development.

Ultimately, Epic was able to release <i>Fortnite</i> as a paid early access title in July 2017, with plans to release it as free-to-play, some time in 2019 while gaining feedback from players to improve the game. With the release of <i>Fortnite Battle Royale</i>, the player-versus-environment mode was distinguished as 'Save the World.'
<h4>Battle Royale</h4>
Fortnite's most prominent rival was PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, which had become a worldwide phenomenon. Looking at that, Epic Games realized that their own game could also do with a battle royale mode.

So, they rapidly developed their own version in about two months. By September 2017, Epic had released Battle Royal as a second mode from Save the World in the paid-for early access.

However, they later decided to release it as a free game, Fortnite Battle Royale. This version quickly gained over 10 million players during its first two weeks of release. It led Epic to create separate teams to continue the Fortnite Battle Royale development apart from the Save the World mode.

Now encompassing two chapters worth of content, Fortnite's Battle Royale mode is clearly its most successful game-mode. Epic continues to release regular updates and content for the battle royale which keeps the fanbase engaged with the game.
<h4>Fortnite Creative</h4>
Fortnite received a creative sandbox mode on December 6, 2018. In this mode, each player can access a private island to construct buildings and add and manage objects to their pleasing.

Moreover, players can invite friends over to the island and compete in various casual games that they can create themselves. This private island mode gives players the freedom to spawn anything within the game on the island. Therefore, players can create their own games like racecourses, battle arenas, platforming challenges, etc.

The mode came into existence with season 7 of Battle Royale and was initially exclusive to players who had a Battle Pass. However, players without a Battle Pass have access to this game mode for free since December 13.
<h2>When did Fortnite come out?</h2>
Epic Games developed this online video game, and it underwent a release in 2017. While Save the World and Battle Royale modes were launched in early access in 2017, the creative mode hit the servers on December 6, 2018.

In 2021, Fortnite is one of the biggest titles in the gaming world largely due to the success of its battle royale mode. Epic managed to curate two entire chapters of Fortnite content which has managed to keep the game extremely relevant.
<h2>How many people play Fortnite?</h2>
Within a year after release, the Fortnite player base had exceeded 125 million players worldwide, making the game a reverberating success.

Since then, the game has kept booming and has carried on with the momentum. According to Statista, Fortnite had amassed a whopping 350 million players worldwide as of May 2020.

Over time, Fortnite has become a part of popular culture, and the reasons for it becoming a global phenomenon are hard to miss. For starters, the game is free and is widely accessible across most gaming platforms.

It also caters to a broader public who have grown accustomed to the ever-so-popular battle royale genre. Moreover, the cartoonish theme appeals to the younger audience.

The majority of the player base aged between 18-24, according to Statista. Besides that, more than 20 percent of Fortnite players reportedly invest over 16 hours of their time into the game every week.
<h2>On which platforms can you play Fortnite in 2021?</h2>
Fortnite Battle Royale and Creative are available on most platforms. These include PC, macOS, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, iOS, and Android devices. However, Save the World is only compatible on PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and macOS.

The game is also set to become available on the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X &amp; S with the release of the next-gen consoles. Players can now take their PC experience with Fortnite on the road with Valve's Steam Deck.

<h2>Valorant 2021: Valorant Ranks, Agents, Competitive, and Updates</h2>
<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-522892" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20210121211727/valorant-personajes-2.jpg" alt="" width="1200" height="675" />
<h2>What is Valorant?</h2>
Developed and published by Riot Games, Valorant is a free-to-play tactical first-person shooter for Microsoft Windows. The tactical shooter opened its closed beta version to players on April 7, 2020, and a new sensation in online gaming had arrived.

Although Valorant had limited initial access, the viewership kept skyrocketing on streaming platforms as Riot kept pushing out more beta keys. The gaming community drew comparisons between Valorant and CS: GO due to the similarities the games shared.

Eventually, Valorant underwent a full release on June 2, 2020, in regions worldwide. The game had already grown immensely popular, and soon after launch, the competitive scene quickly gained momentum, with numerous esports organizations announcing their Valorant rosters.
<h2>Valorant gameplay</h2>
In this multiplayer tactical shooter, players assume control of various agents, each having unique abilities. The standard Plant/Defuse game mode assigns players either as attackers or defenders, in teams of five. The players begin each round with pistols and one or more signature ability charge. Players also have access to the in-game shop to spend the in-game currency (creds) they get based on the outcome of the previous round. Using creds, players can purchase weapons, shields, and agent abilities.

Valorant has a wide range of weapons from sidearms to sniper rifles, with certain automatic and semi-automatic weapons having specific recoil patterns that a player has to control. Other game modes include Ranked, Spike Rush, Deathmatch, and Practice Game Modes.

In Ranked plant/defuse game mode, players go head to head in a competitive environment to grind their Valorant ranks. In Spike Rush, players go into casual combat with random weapons and random orbs that buff a player/teammate or debuff enemies.

Meanwhile, Deathmatch places 10 players on a map, where the first player to muster 30 kills or the one with most kills after time runs out wins the game. Finally, through a series of practice game modes, players on the training grounds can understand how Valorant matches work.
<h2>Valorant ranks</h2>
Players can boost their Valorant ranks through the Ranked game mode, where match-making is based on the level of their ranks. Abandoning matches leads to match-making restrictions and reduced progression.

Defeating opponents by a wide margin in a match has a strong influence on the rank. Meanwhile, closely contested matches have a smaller impact on rank.

Here is the list of all <strong>Valorant ranks</strong>: Iron, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, Immortal, Radiant. Except for the highest rank, Radiant, all other ranks have three tiers.
<h2>Valorant's agents</h2>
Playable Valorant characters are known as Agents. The design for these characters resembles several countries and cultures around the world. Agents have unique abilities that require charging through kills, deaths, or actions with the spike.

Each Valorant agent belongs to a specific class, has four abilities and a unique contract. Contracts are in-game challenges that players can take up to unlock additional content. Agents have a signature ability that they get for free every round.

Here is the list of all Valorant Agents:

<strong>Jett</strong> - Role: Duelist. Basic Abilities: Cloudburst, Updraft. Signature Ability: Tailwind. Ultimate Ability: Blade Storm.

<strong>Raze</strong> - Role: Duelist. Basic Abilities: Boom Bot, Blast Pack. Updraft. Signature Ability: Paint Shells. Ultimate Ability: Showstopper.
<div class="pi-item pi-data pi-item-spacing pi-border-color" data-source="role">
<div class="pi-data-value pi-font"><strong>Breach</strong> - Role: Initiator. Basic Abilities: Aftershock, Flashpoint. Signature Ability: Fault Line. Ultimate Ability: Rolling Thunder.</div>
</div>
<strong>Omen</strong> - ?Role: Controller. Basic Abilities: Shrouded Step, Paranoia. Signature Ability: Dark Cover. Ultimate Ability: From the Shadows.

<strong>Brimstone</strong> - ?Role: Controller. Basic Abilities: Cloudburst, Incendiary, Stim Beacon. Signature Ability: Sky Smoke. Ultimate Ability: Orbital Strike.

<strong>Phoenix</strong> - Role: Duelist, Basic Abilities: Blaze, Curveball. Signature Ability: Hot Hands, Ultimate Ability: Run It Back.

<strong>Sage</strong> - Role: Sentinel, Basic Abilities: Barrier Orb, Slow Orb. Signature Ability: Healing Orb, Ultimate Ability: Resurrection.

<strong>Sova</strong> - Role: Initiator, Basic Abilities: Owl Drone, Shock Bolt. Signature Ability: Recon Bolt, Ultimate Ability: Hunter's Fury.

<strong>Viper</strong> - Role: Controller, Basic Abilities: Snake Bite, Poison Cloud. Signature Ability: Toxic Screen, Ultimate Ability: Viper's Pit.

<strong>Cypher</strong> - Role: Sentinel, Basic Abilities: Trapwire, Cyber Cage, Signature Ability: Spycam, Ultimate Ability: Neural Theft.

<strong>Reyna</strong> - Role: Duelist, Basic Ability: Leer Signature Abilities: Devour, Dismiss, Ultimate Ability: Empress.

<strong>Killjoy</strong> - Role: Sentinel, Basic Abilities: Alarmbot, Nanoswarm. Signature Ability: Turret, Ultimate Ability: Lockdown.
<h2>Where can you play Valorant?</h2>
The 5v5 multiplayer tactical shooter is free-to-play and is available on PC, for now. Riot might launch the game for other platforms further down the line.

One has to simply head over to the official Valorant website and click 'Play Now'; after that, they will be prompted to either sign in or create a new Riot Games account, if they don't have one. Signing in successfully will lead to a page to download the game.

One needs to click on 'Download' to initiate the Valorant download. Once the download is complete, run the installation file for the game, which will then guide through the rest of the process.

It is important to note that a player will also be asked to install Vanguard, the anti-cheat software. This client software needs to run in the background for a player to play Valorant
<h2>Valorant on mobile</h2>
Following the release of Patch 1.08, leaks surfaced online after data miners examined the updated code. In the leaks, a functional mobile UI appeared on the screen, hinting at a Valorant version for Andriod and iOS devices.

Earlier, game director Joe Ziegler had <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/valorant-has-news-for-console-and-mobile-users-esports-riot-games-news-2020/">mentioned</a>?that the development team was exploring launching the tactical shooter on other platforms like console and mobile. There is a possibility that Valorant mobile could become a feature of the future.

<h2>Bugha 2021: Net worth, sponsors, and streaming setup</h2>
Kyle "Bugha" Giersdorf is one of the best youngest players in the gaming industry and is a part of the Sentinels. He made his name in Fortnite winning the Fortnite world cup and is now one of the richest players in the world.
<h2>Fortnite World Champion</h2>
Bugha is the winner of the Solo <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fortnite_World_Cup">Fortnite World Cup</a> in its inaugural year of 2019. He attended the first World Cup as a rather new face and competed for solos that took place on July 28th, 2019. After the 6 matches he played, he stood first with 59 points and won the grand prize of $3,000,000.
<h2>Mental Breakdown</h2>
After his win in the Fortnite World Cup, Bugha had a mental breakdown. The player began questioning why he ever played the game. He apparently had a bad rift with new and "bad" players being able to defeat him in the game.

Bugha was also not a fan of players on controllers. He also faced trash-talks among other things from the community. His supporters re-assured him and he further clarified that he is not depressed.
