Multiplayer Mayhem: Fortnite

Taking personal feelings about a certain witcher allegedly portaling into the game to one side (Geralt would never portal, Geralt hates portals), there’s good reason Fortnite has remained the king of the battle royale genre. With four days to burn, you’re sure to have time to dip your toe in whatever action is kicking off. Grab some friends or dive off the Battle Bus solo into a 100-player battlefield stack with more chaos, carnage, and characters from across pop culture you can shake a unicorn at.
