Fortnite To Launch In China, Some Players Worry Over Too Many Features

Fortnite Battle Royale is one of those games that is already huge in the Western market before it even entered the Chinese sector, which is an incredible feat. Now, the developers are indicating that the game might finally break into the red nation and open the floodgates to the numerous Chinese players who want to officially participate in the phenomenon. Could this inflate the worries of gamers who believe that the title is being stuffed with too much stuff?

The reports about Fortnite going to China were prompted by a Tweet by Epic Games that contained an image of a passport with a China stamp and the caption that read “The Battle Bus is taking off! Destination, China.” As teasers go, this couldn’t have been more explicit if the developers had simply said outright that the game is coming to China.

The image even contains a clue as to when the game will likely launch in the Asian market since the stamp indicates that it will be on April 23rd of this year. Without official confirmation, nothing is set in stone, but it would certainly be apt if the schedule stuck.

As Gamespot notes, this is a significant development for Epic simply because China is a huge market for video games. There are plenty of potential players that can be added to the already huge gamers on Fortnite Battle Royale.

However, cheating and hacking are also rampant in the region, which PUBG has learned the hard way. So now, Fortnite players will be wondering if they are in for a tidal wave of frustrating sessions with players who can seemingly shoot through walls.

Speaking of player worries, it seems some fans of Fortnite are becoming concerned that there is just too much going on in the game now, Kotaku reports. While it’s great that Epic seems really committed to giving players an amazing experience, having too many weapons, items, and options to choose from can also be overwhelming for many gamers.
