The gaming scene is very much at
the nascent stage in India. When compared to USA and most of the European
territories, we can safely say that the Indian gaming scene has grown
sporadically, showing major developments in certain respects and lagging behind
at others. One of the sectors of gaming that deserve special mention in this
regard is certainly the Battle Royale sector. While Battle Royale is fairly a
new gaming concept in India, two of the most popular games in the world have
already captured the fascination of the people in this part of the world. These
are the Fortnite and PUBG.

Fortnite was originally launched
by Epic games on 27th July, 2017 and ever since then it has completely
transformed the gaming industry all over the world. It has since then become
one of the most widely played video games across the globe. Even thoughFortnite
faces stiff competition in India from PUBG, there are more than 200 million
users in India who are addicted to the game. Most cities in India now have an
active fan base for Fortnite and it is easy to see why. The high octane action
and thrill offered by Fortnite has made it extremely popular among different
types of gamers. While Fortnite is not available on Android’s Google Play Store
and one needs to download it from the official website, there are plenty of
reasons why many players swear by Fortnite. Let’s have a look at the factors
that make Fortnite so popular among the youth of India.
Unique dystopian storyline
The Fortnitegame is about a world
where 98% of all human population has completely disappeared. The survivors
face constant threat from “husks” which are zombie like creatures that descend
on earth from the overhead storms. The player is one of the last remaining
humans and required to handle various objectives like protecting the other
surviving humans from husks as well as rebuilding the civilization for a better
future.
Multiple versions
Over the months and years
following the release of the original version, the makers of Fortnite released
several versions with unique features to each of them. Quite often, the
graphics and imagery of these versions differed, which made ardent gamers play
all of them one by one. The Fortnite Battle Royale was later released for the
global audience as a standalone game and it soon became one of the most well-known versions of Fortnite.
World building
There is a lot of creative world
building going on in Fortnite which appeals to gamers who prefer to indulge
themselves in extensive imaginative worlds. Gamers are required to move in
squads or solo to find resources and weapons which they can use for surviving
the perils that may befall on them.
Powerful graphics
Graphics play an important role
to create a world that is believable and effective. Fortnite features some of
the finest graphics which can translate into a mind boggling gaming experience.
It is due to this reason plenty of people get completely hooked to this game.
