E3 2018: FORTNITE Comes To Switch

The release of Fortnite on the Nintendo Switch has been one of the worst keep secrets in human history, so you probably won’t be spitting out your drink in astonishment when I tell you that it was confirmed during Nintendo’s E3 press conference that Epic Games’ insanely popular battle royale shooter would debut on the system.

And you don’t have long to wait either, because Fortnite was released on the Switch at the time of the press conference, so if you’re a Switch owner you can play it right now, and best of all, it’s free (albeit with microtransactions). In other words, you’re finally going to understand all the fuss coming from PS4 and Xbox One owners.

Sony are unfortunately blocking cross-play between the PS4 and Switch versions of Fortnite, although you can still cross-play with other systems, so you’ll have no shortage of matches to partake in. But enough talk, because now it’s time for you to squad up and parachute into your battlefield.
