  • Game Refresh: Restarting the game and the Epic Launcher can help refresh the game and possibly restore your friends list.
  • Internet connection: Make sure you have a stable and fast internet connection, as a poor connection may prevent your friends list from loading properly.

“Fortnite” gameplay

Fortnite offers multiple game modes, each with its own unique gameplay:

  • Fortnite: Save the World is a cooperative game where four players work together to complete missions. After a storm destroys the Earth, they defend themselves against zombie-like creatures called “husks.” Players gather resources, rescue survivors, and defend their sanctuary.
  • Fortnite Battle Royale is a player versus player game for up to 100 players. Players parachute onto the map, scavenge for weapons and resources, and fight to survive until the end. The map shrinks over time, forcing players to get up close and personal until only one person remains.

Players can collect resources by knocking down buildings on the map using their pickaxe. These resources are used to build defenses such as walls, floors, and stairs. In Save the World, players use fortifications to defend, while in Battle Royale, players can use fortifications to traverse and protect.

While most modes are free, Save the World requires payment. The game uses V-Bucks as an in-game currency that can be earned or purchased with real money for use in cosmetic items and the Battle Pass.
