The popularity of Fortnite Party Royale
The Fortnite Party Royale mode was launched in May this year, to provide fans with a hangout zone, devoid of the competitive aspect associated with the game.
Weapons and materials are not available, with the emphasis being on cultivating an interactive and integrated environment, replete with chill vibes.

Players are free to listen to music, participate in fun activities and take time off from the competitive side of things. The premiere witnessed the likes of Steve Aoki, deadmau5 and Dillon Francis, who paved the way for several such collaborations to follow.
The Party Royale Island has also witnessed movie nights, with Christopher Nolan's films exclusively being shown. The emergence of Fortnite Party Royale as an evolving and experimental space has undoubtedly helped bring the spotlight back onto the game, which continues to host numerous celebrities and performances.
