Fortnite: 22 Times fans got to witness the compassionate side of Epic Games

Epic Games in the past have strived to express their appreciation of their Fortnite community through various gestures. Hence, here are 22 such instances where players got to witness the compassionate side of the developers.

22. Free Skin Bundle

Yes, you heard it right. Fortnite is giving away a free Skin Bundle to players in the near future. In the game files, people could find a codename: Winter Warrior Fennix. This is a brand new fox skin cosmetic that Epic Games is planning to give out for free to the players in an upcoming event. The bundle consists of the skin, Artic Foxpack (back bling), Subzero SpikeClone (Pickaxe), and Outtfoxed wrap.

21. The MrBeast Survival challenge

No one can forget the collaboration that Fortnite had with the YouTube king MrBeast. Jimmy came into the game with a bang with many cosmetics that resembled his persona. But what caught the eye of the community was the insane challenge he brought.

Through a survival challenge, every Fortnite player was given the opportunity to win $1,000,000. Guild Anas surely is a happy soul now after winning the hefty prize.

20. The Among Us collaboration

One of the most infamous moves Fortnite made in the past was their version of Among Us. The game mode got heavily criticized by the community for supposedly ripping off the popular game. It even got the attention of Innersloth LLC, the publisher of Among Us. And as a move to set all the debates aside, a brand new collaboration was introduced. Players were given the opportunity to get a crewmate back bling as a part of this.

19. The mythic items

One of the most amazing aspects that players dearly appreciate from the game is their collaboration. These brought some unique items for the players to experience. Some of these mythic items were so popular among the metaverse that players were in grief when they left the game.

Thus, the game broke its habit of taking back mythic items after the stipulated time to appreciate the love fans were showing these mythic items. The prime example of this is the Spiderman Web-Shooters.

18. Refund system

Epic Games are very lenient on refunds for their cosmetics. Remember the time when Epic Games allowed a refund of the Beach Jules skin after they made changes to the cosmetic? Compared to many other popular games, Fortnite is more forgiving in the refund department.

17. Mid-Season drops

Initially, the mid-season drops were restricted to many players. The sole reason for this was because the level limit to getting there was 1000. There were only a few players in this position. So, the game reduced the limit to make the drops available to a larger audience.

16. #BoogieDown

This was the time when Fortnite turned towards its community, asking them to record dance moves that they wanted to see in the game. The competition for this was immense. Especially because having a Fortnite emote to your name was a spectacular title.

Everyone expected the ‘Orange shirt Kid’ to win, but he was placed at the #23 position. This caused waves of displease and later Fortnite brought the emote into the game through the Season 4 Battle pass.

15. Zero Build Mode

This highly courageous introduction by Epic into the battle royale was revolutionary. Fortnite was known for its build modes, but the introduction of the zero build mode attracted many players into the metaverse community. Now, it has become an unavoidable feature of the game.

14. The Ukraine funds

In 2022 Fortnite decided to bring a war theme into the game. But the coincidence was impeccable because this was the time when Ukraine was under attack. But instead of canceling the idea, Fortnite did a wholesome gesture. From March 20, 2022, to April 3, 2022, they donated Fortnite proceedings to the relief funds of Ukraine. Epic managed to amass $144 million from this.

13. Fan concepts

Fortnite shares the concepts that the fans create so they get exposure. Additionally, they even pay for the concepts and add them as features in the game. Did you know that Haunted Hills was the first community POI that Epic brought after a concept was shared on Reddit?

12. Dragon Ball Z collaboration

No one can forget this insane collab the game had with the popular show. First, the Kame House was teased to the fans, and later the community got to witness the insane collaboration with Dragon Ball Z. Moreover, the Kamehameha was even brought into the game.

11. Prom request

In 2018, a fan of the game asked Fortnite for a unique request. He wanted the game to help him ask a girl out on a prom date. Epic was more than happy to do so, and players got to witness the invitation in a house in the game. The girl even accepted his proposal!

10. The Free Battle Pass

During chapter 1 of Season 8, a new game was introduced into the battle royale genre. Apex was gaining much popularity. And during this time, Fortnite planned to give out Season 8 Battle Pass for free to the community.

9. Additional Graphics

With Chapter 4 came exciting new visual aesthetics for the community. The game started using Unreal Engine 5 and aimed to increase the dynamic environment and detailing of Fortnite.

8. Addition of cars

Did you know that Fortnite was hesitant to add cars into the game? Instead, they brought a wide variety of unique vehicles into the game. But, eventually, the game brought in 4 different types of cars for the community.

7. Crossplay

The pioneering game of this idea is none other than Fortnite. There was some commotion between consoles for this idea until Fortnite stepped up. The game became the first to be available over multiple platforms at the same time.

6. Apple ban

The game had a rough relationship with the multi-billion dollar Apple. Epic games lost around 60% of their users. But thanks to this, players got V-bucks for cheaper through the mega-drops.

5. Titled Towers

Arguably the most popular POI of the game, Tilted Tower is loved by many. It can be speculated that this is the reason that Epic removes and again puts back this POI with each update. Last time fans got to see the POI during the Fracture event time. And now the community is in anticipation of its re-release.

4. Support the creator

This is a unique feature that Fortnite introduced and became so popular that many other games tend to involve this concept in their games as well. The community did not even need to financially pay up to support the creators, instead putting in the creator’s code was sufficient.

3. The Free Game

The fact that this battle royale game is free is pretty amazing. Especially as the game offers a ton of free items to the players. Even in collaborations, players need not purchase anything to get a taste of the partnership.

2. Landon and the one million V-bucks

This content creator became viral in 2018 when he tried to break the world record for having the most V-bucks in the game. But the excitement was cut short when Epic banned the account. The content creator appealed for a while but eventually was on the verge of giving up. This is when surprisingly the game gave him back his account, with all the V-Bucks intact.

1. The Chicken Trooper

In 2018, an eight-year-old child requested Fortnite to make a chicken trooper skin. He even sketched out a figure that he requested Fortnite to include in the game. The request went viral on Reddit.

In a few months when Conor (the kid) logged into the game, he got to see the Tender defender skin. This skin is inspired by his Chicken Trooper concept and thus Epic granted the wish of the child.

These are the 22 times Fortnite recognized the needs of its community and were appreciating them through some wholesome gestures.
