The video game has managed to overcome the barrier of mere commercial success to transfer lines that have catapulted it to an indisputable popularity among players of all ages. What are your keys?
It is very likely that in May 2017 no one imagined the success that was coming for Epic and Fornite. Undoubtedly, what looked like the ugly duckling of Tencent's company compared to Paragon, has ended up becoming the swan. Paradoxically, today, in May 2018, the game of construction and survival is a real money-making machine and the hero shooter has disappeared from the market. What exactly happened? What are the keys that lead to a production like the present, twelve months later, to beat all the imaginable records in the industry thanks to the inclusion of a battle royale mode?

The creative director of Fortnite, Donald Mustard, assured that in Epic "they are committed in doing what is necessary to make the crossed game", guaranteeing that "videogame players deserve a cross-network". Weeks before, Epic had an "accident" in which allowed the multiplayer between players of PS4 and Xbox One, something that had to correct a few hours. However, the present was a litmus test of how accessible and easy it would be for developers to realize what until a few months ago seemed somewhat utopian.

In 2018 it seems that there is no talk of anything other than Fortnite. Many athletes have celebrated accomplishments doing dances taken from the own video game of Epic, which inevitably took to that many famous other people to the sector made public their liking by the software. The most famous chapter, without a doubt, the game between Ninja and rapper Drake, which reached a peak of more than 635,000 viewers on Twitch.
