However, not all games can be run across multiple systems due to which players using different consoles or different systems are unable to play together. However, games like Fortnite, Rocket League are released across multiple platforms so that players using different systems such as? PS4 and PC can play together.

<h3 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9">Call of Duty: History and Sale in 2022</h3>
Over the span of two decades, the phrase 'Call of Duty' has become a household name. Starting in 2003, Call of Duty is a first-person shooter video game franchise published by Activision.

The franchise has given rise to some of the most popular FPS titles, with Infinity Ward and Treyarch developing most of them. Sledgehammer Games and other studios have also contributed to developing some titles. Fans are greeted with a new Call of Duty game every year, with the above-mentioned studios rotating their role as the primary developer.

First-person shooter video game Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II was created by Infinity Ward and released by Activision in 2022. It serves as the nineteenth entry in the overall Call of Duty franchise and is a follow-up to the 2019 reboot. For the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S, it was published on October 28, 2022.

The game takes place in a realistic, contemporary environment, just like its predecessor. The campaign centers on the pursuit of terrorist Hassan Zyani, who is in possession of American-made ballistic missiles, by multinational special operations unit Task Force 141 and Mexican Special Forces unit Los Vaqueros. Modern Warfare II continues to offer cross-platform multiplayer thanks to a new iteration of the IW engine.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II became the fastest-selling Call of Duty game of all time. The game grossed $800 million in its first three days and $1 billion in 10 days, surpassing the series' previous record holders, 2011's Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and 2012's Black Ops II. It is the best-selling game of 2022 in the United States.
In the UK, Modern Warfare II became the best-selling game in its first week of release. In Japan, the PlayStation 4 version of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II sold 24,371 physical copies during its release week, making it the second best-selling game in the country for the week. The Sony PlayStation 5 version sold 17,710 physical copies in Japan in the same week, ranking sixth among video game sales across all formats.

<h3><strong>Call of Duty: Warzone</strong></h3>
On March 10, 2020, Infinity Ward, Raven Software, and Activision released a free-to-play battle royale extension of 2019's Modern Warfare known as Warzone. Since its release, Call of Duty: Warzone has established itself as one of the most prominent battle royale titles.

Despite being a part of Modern Warfare, the battle royale extension does not require the purchase of the campaign and multiplayer. Warzone is the second battle royale in the franchise's history, following the Blackout mode from 2018's Black Ops 4.

This battle royale features 150 players in a lobby, (200 in some limited-time modes) which is much more compared to the 100 players supported by other battle royale titles. Within the first month of its release, Warzone exceeded 50 million players and has kept gaining immense popularity ever since.
<h3><strong>Warzone 2.0</strong></h3>
Infinity Ward and Raven Software created the free-to-play battle royale video game Warzone 2.0. It is a follow-up to Call of Duty: Warzone from 2020.

<h3><strong>Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War</strong></h3>
Black Ops Cold War is the newest iteration in the Call of Duty franchise. The game, jointly developed by Treyarch Studios and Raven Software, launched worldwide on November 13, 2020.

<span style="font-weight: 400">Epic Games poster game Fortnite was released back in 2017 as a third-person tactical shooter and it was just what Battle Royale fans needed. For years now, it has been known as a shooting adventure, especially for its Battle Royale mode. And the popularity has only grown since, thanks to all the efforts by developer, Epic Games. This has helped bring an exhilarating lineup of collaborations and celebrity features to the Fortnite island.Â </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">The Epic Games classic lets the players explore an open-world environment where the purpose is to <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/esports-news-these-ten-expensive-fortnite-skins-sent-fans-on-a-spending-spree/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">survive against other characters (skins)</a> through constant combat and some light-hearted graphical violence which has appealed to a lot of young gamers. The arsenal and combat essentials in the open world have only evolved with time and players have been introduced to new innovative load-outs, essentials, features, and movements from time to time. Let's have a look at how Fortnite has progressed as the biggest â€˜third-person-shooter Battle Royale since its infamous launch in 2017.Â </span>
<h2><strong>Fortnite Structure</strong></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400">In contrast to other multiplayer games, Fortnite features a single, sizable map that is exclusive to that season. In actuality, you won't likely run into too many other players early on in the game. But as the game goes on, a ring on the map gradually gets closer to the center. Your character will perish if you are discovered outside the ring.Â </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">Fortnite is comparable to games like PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds and Apex Legends. It does, however, have one special quality. In Fortnite, you can build constructions with your character as you go. In the game, this lets you place traps, construct forts, and provide cover. Further, in contrast to other battle royale games, Fortnite requires you to become an expert shooter and builder.</span>
<h2><strong>StorylineÂ </strong></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400">It all took off with the Zero Point or as the game calls it The Big Bang which created the universe spawning in trillions of different realities and among all these alternative realities was the center reality zero aka the Fortnite island. This is the home of the zero point, an island that it created to protect itself from any threat. Well, it worked for a while until a mysterious group called the imagined order found out about it and decided to move to the island.Â </span>

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-2363482 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/fortnite-planes-leak.jpg" alt="" width="1600" height="900" />

<span style="font-weight: 400">The group created a whole bunch of secret underground bases which they could access through the bunkers. The secret society used Zero point energy to create a loop that forces people to fight against each other for 22 minutes and then it resets their memory. The IO group are the ones looking after the island and keeping everything in order. However, the twist begins when there are multiple attacks on the island by different enemies seeking zero-point energy.Â </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">The storyline starts before the time of Battle Royale when Dr Vindermann, the scientist, finds out about some crazy advancements in the science lab called the Vindertech. He was also the creator of V bucks, Battle Pass and all the weapons players can access on the island. Before Season 3, no player was aware of the loop on the island. Also, the original default skins were actually the snapshots of the agents of IO, later explained in the storyline.Â </span>
<ul>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400">
<h3><strong>The MeteorÂ </strong></h3>
</li>
</ul>
<span style="font-weight: 400">On May 1st, 2018, the Fortnite world witnessed its first attack when the meteor struck the center of the map destroying Dusty Divot and the factors while smaller meteors destroyed other structures on the island.</span>

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-2388617 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/fortnite-meteor.jpeg" alt="" width="1920" height="1080" />

<span style="font-weight: 400">The impact also introduced hop rocks, which players could consume to experience low gravity effects. Following this event, the narrative continued to evolve with subsequent seasons. The Zero Point became a central element, leading to events like the butterfly event, the Nexus War, and the ongoing struggle against the Loop. Each season brought new story elements, collaborations, and changes to the Fortnite island.</span>
<ul>
 	<li style="font-weight: 400">
<h3><strong>The CubeÂ </strong></h3>
</li>
</ul>
<span style="font-weight: 400">An official character of the cube, commonly referred to as â€œKevinâ€ proved its vitality in Fortniteâ€™s plot. The smoke monster has been featured since season five when a huge crack opened up in the sky and released it into the island. Therefore, the cube moved across the map creating Runes and visiting diverse places. </span><span style="font-weight: 400">While traveling, the cube switched on Loot Lake, which turned it into a floating one. Ultimately it melted into the lake forming whirlpools taking players to another world. Subsequently, it continued to serve as a center stage in season six where â€œbutterflyâ€ was organized and the cube recurred in other shapes in succeeding seasons.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">The mysterious nature behind the cube helped to add mystique and magic to the Fortnite storyline. It also ensured that the events on the island were shaped by the presence of this cube.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">Subsequently, Fortnite went on with its storyline which involved different scenarios. At this point, the ZERO PT was made central as The Seven, an ensemble of guys trying to keep the multiverse stable, came into play. This story unfolded in the Butterfly event in Season 6, depicting the clash of various powers.</span>

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-2388620 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/rocket-fortnite.jpeg" alt="" width="680" height="383" />

<span style="font-weight: 400">The Foundation was added in subsequent seasons and became key during the Zero Crisis Finale that kicked off Chapter 2, Season 6. IO turned out to be one of the major forces struggling with the disorder caused by the Zero Point.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">There were further happenings like the season when the â€œIOâ€ forces invaded and introduced the cube queen whom they had been fighting a continuous war on the loop.Â </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">These two events opened up a whole new realm of possibilities to the island bringing collisions of different universes across the globe to the island. A huge advantage these two attacks on Zero Energy brought was the liberty to bring on many top-tier collaborations to the game.Â </span>
<h2><strong>Notable Collaborations</strong></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400">As mentioned earlier, a lot of the limelight Fortnite enjoys is attributed to the top-tier lineup of collaborations that have been introduced in the game throughout. From unexpected Easter eggs to some big celebrity skins, there's a never-ending lineup that fans can look back on to celebrate the branding of Fortnite. Let us look at some of the collaborations that still remain the most memorable of all.Â </span>

Fortnite

Epic Games poster game Fortnite was released back in 2017 as a third-person tactical shooter and it was just what Battle Royale fans needed. For years now, it has been known as a shooting adventure, especially for its Battle Royale mode. And the popularity has only grown since, thanks to all the efforts by developer, Epic Games. This has helped bring an exhilarating lineup of collaborations and celebrity features to the Fortnite island.Â  The Epic Games classic lets the players explore an open-world environment where the purpose is to survive against other characters (skins) through constant combat and some light-hearted graphical violence which has appealed to a lot of young gamers. The arsenal and combat essentials in the open world have only evolved with time and players have been introduced to new innovative load-outs, essentials, features, and movements from time to time. Let&#8217;s have a look at how Fortnite has progressed as the biggest â€˜third-person-shooter Battle Royale since its infamous launch in 2017.Â  Fortnite Structure In contrast to other multiplayer games, Fortnite features a single, sizable map that is exclusive to that season. In actuality, you won&#8217;t likely run into too many other players early on in the game. But as the game goes on, a ring on the map gradually gets closer to the center. Your character will perish if you are discovered outside the ring.Â  Fortnite is comparable to games like PlayerUnknown&#8217;s Battlegrounds and Apex Legends. It does, however, have one special quality. In Fortnite, you can build constructions with your character as you go. In the game, this lets you place traps, construct forts, and provide cover. Further, in contrast to other battle royale games, Fortnite requires you to become an expert shooter and builder. StorylineÂ  It all took off with the Zero Point or as the game calls it The Big Bang which created the universe spawning in trillions of different realities and among all these alternative realities was the center reality zero aka the Fortnite island. This is the home of the zero point, an island that it created to protect itself from any threat. Well, it worked for a while until a mysterious group called the imagined order found out about it and decided to move to the island.Â  The group created a whole bunch of secret underground bases which they could access through the bunkers. The secret society used Zero point energy to create a loop that forces people to fight against each other for 22 minutes and then it resets their memory. The IO group are the ones looking after the island and keeping everything in order. However, the twist begins when there are multiple attacks on the island by different enemies seeking zero-point energy.Â  The storyline starts before the time of Battle Royale when Dr Vindermann, the scientist, finds out about some crazy advancements in the science lab called the Vindertech. He was also the creator of V bucks, Battle Pass and all the weapons players can access on the island. Before Season 3, no player was aware of the loop on the island. Also, the original default skins were actually the snapshots of the agents of IO, later explained in the storyline.Â   The MeteorÂ   On May 1st, 2018, the Fortnite world witnessed its first attack when the meteor struck the center of the map destroying Dusty Divot and the factors while smaller meteors destroyed other structures on the island. The impact also introduced hop rocks, which players could consume to experience low gravity effects. Following this event, the narrative continued to evolve with subsequent seasons. The Zero Point became a central element, leading to events like the butterfly event, the Nexus War, and the ongoing struggle against the Loop. Each season brought new story elements, collaborations, and changes to the Fortnite island.  The CubeÂ   An official character of the cube, commonly referred to as â€œKevinâ€ proved its vitality in Fortniteâ€™s plot. The smoke monster has been featured since season five when a huge crack opened up in the sky and released it into the island. Therefore, the cube moved across the map creating Runes and visiting diverse places. While traveling, the cube switched on Loot Lake, which turned it into a floating one. Ultimately it melted into the lake forming whirlpools taking players to another world. Subsequently, it continued to serve as a center stage in season six where â€œbutterflyâ€ was organized and the cube recurred in other shapes in succeeding seasons. The mysterious nature behind the cube helped to add mystique and magic to the Fortnite storyline. It also ensured that the events on the island were shaped by the presence of this cube. Subsequently, Fortnite went on with its storyline which involved different scenarios. At this point, the ZERO PT was made central as The Seven, an ensemble of guys trying to keep the multiverse stable, came into play. This story unfolded in the Butterfly event in Season 6, depicting the clash of various powers. The Foundation was added in subsequent seasons and became key during the Zero Crisis Finale that kicked off Chapter 2, Season 6. IO turned out to be one of the major forces struggling with the disorder caused by the Zero Point. There were further happenings like the season when the â€œIOâ€ forces invaded and introduced the cube queen whom they had been fighting a continuous war on the loop.Â  These two events opened up a whole new realm of possibilities to the island bringing collisions of different universes across the globe to the island. A huge advantage these two attacks on Zero Energy brought was the liberty to bring on many top-tier collaborations to the game.Â  Notable Collaborations As mentioned earlier, a lot of the limelight Fortnite enjoys is attributed to the top-tier lineup of collaborations that have been introduced in the game throughout. From unexpected Easter eggs to some big celebrity skins, there&#8217;s a never-ending lineup that fans can look back on to celebrate the branding of Fortnite. Let us look at some of the collaborations that still remain the most memorable of all.Â   Infinity Gauntlet (LTM)/ Avengers Infinity War: Season 4Â  NFL Cosmetics: Season 6Â  Marshmello Bundle: Season 7Â  Endgame Limited Time Mode/ Avengers Endgame: Season 8Â  John Wick Chapter 3: Season 9Â  Ninja: Chapter 2 Season 1 Deadpool: Chapter 2 Season 2Â  Tenet: Chapter 2 Season 3Â  The Flash: Chapter 2 Season 5Â  Neymar Jr.: Chapter 2 Season 6Â  NBA: Chapter 2 Season 6Â  Naruto: Chapter 2 Season 8Â  Spider-Man: Chapter 3 Season 1Â  John Cena: Chapter 3 Season 3Â  MrBeast: Chapter 4 Season 1 Alan Wake: Chapter 4 Season 4 Invincible: Chapter 4 Season OG  The most recent collaborations include Lewis Hamilton and Stranger Things for the OG Chapter. Also, if the rumors are to be trusted a LEGO collaboration would be following Eminem&#8217;s Big Bang event. Game ModesÂ  Fortnite offers various game modes catering to different playstyles: Fortnite Battle Royale: The most popular mode where 100 players compete to be the last one standing. The game features a shrinking play zone, and players must gather resources, and weapons, and build structures to survive. Creative:Â  A sandbox mode allowing players to build and create their own islands, games, and experiences. It provides a wide range of tools and assets for players to express their creativity. Fortnite Save the World: A co-op player-vs-environment (PvE) mode where players team up to fight against waves of zombie-like creatures. This mode involves resource gathering, building structures, and completing objectives.
