—The Old Stuff!—
Fortnite
Last year, I suggested that Fortnite might not make it on a future “Best Shooters” list because the game had become so much more than a third-person battle royale. Fast forward 12 months and here’s Fortnite on the list. Why? Well, because Epic has greatly expanded the shooty-shooty bang-bang bits of Fortnite, helping it secure a spot here one more time.
In the last 12 months, Epic has added Fortnite OG, Reload, and Ballistic to the game. The first is a stripped-down battle royale experience based on the game’s first year. Reload is a fast-paced battle royale with respawning. And then there’s Ballistic, a first-person shooter built in Fortnite that plays light Counter-Strike. It’s wild that so many really good shooters live in one game, but I’m not complaining.
