Why is Fortnite Chapter 1 Season 4 the best one so far?

At the end of Season 3, players witnessed a bright blue light in the sky. They soon realized it was a comet. This comet hit the island, marking the beginning of Season 4. The comet also destroyed Dusty Depot, creating a new POI called Dusty Divot.

Season 4 was an immersive rollercoaster of an experience for Loopers that included a superhero battle, an interesting movie, and a wonderful ending. Chapter 1 Season 4 was the first season of the game to have a story trailer. Moreover, it was also one of the first seasons to have a live event that led into the next season.

Clearly, the entire Omega vs. Carbide storyline, the destruction of several POIs, anti-gravity Hop Rocks, and the Rocket Launch event all contributed to the success of Fortnite Chapter 1 Season 4.


Fortnite Chapter 1 Season 4 helped many streamers become popular

Twitch was dominated by Battle Royale games like PUBG and H1Z1 in 2017. However, Epic Games managed to leave these titles far behind after launching Chapter 1 Season 4.

The likes of Ninja, DrLupo, Tfue, CouRageJD, and many other Twitch streamers actively started playing the game on their livestreams.
