Fortnite is getting new game modes

While the map is an obvious change, there’s something that fans might not have expected to see at all! Fortnite will get three new game modes:

  1. Fortnite Rocket Racing: This is said to be a Fortnite racing mode but with added Rocket League mechanics.
  2. Lego Fortnite: This is basically a Minecraft-like builder mode but with Legos.
  3. Fortnite Festival: This is going to be a rhythm game where players play through the game while matching their actions to the music playing.

Gameplay mechanics

Players will now be able to wall-run and wall-kick. It looks like Epic Games is turning this game into a full-on brawler. Weapons will now have attachments, which will have an additional slot in inventory. These attachments would be for one of three things:

  • optics,
  • accuracy,
  • recoil.

Ice grenade launchers and ice grenade launchers will also allow players to cover the ground with ice.

Writing about video games has been on my mind for years and being an eSports writer at EssentiallySports gave me that chance.
