And while Fortnite Battle Royale is free-to-play with micro-transactions such as the Fortnite Battle , skins, and other assorted cosmetic additions, that hasn't stopped the likes of Activision and EA from borrowing its gameplay modes what with Black Ops 4 getting Blackout - Call of Duty's take on battle royale and Battlefield V getting its own version, simply called Royale. It's just a matter of time before we see big budget game makers mimic Epic Games' existing formula.

However, this could also see them use it in ways that are far from -friendly. While Fortnite skins and other items are permanent unlocks, games like PUBG with its Event only let you keep specific items for the duration of the event period. Others like Paladins have both a season and multiple battle es.
