The brand new Battle Royale genre started by PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds is getting bigger and bigger, and there's a brand new top game in town, as Fortnite has surpassed even PUBG with 3.4 million concurrent players in its Early Access stage! The game has taken the gaming world by storm (see what we did there?) since it's release last July, with its co-op play that takes elements from sandbox games like Minecraft and survival games like Left 4 Dead. With the full release of the game not even expected until later this year, #MethodFortnite will be in on the ground floor for upcoming tournaments and leagues as they battle to protect, destroy, and survive the Battle.
And so, without further ado, here is #MethodFortnite, with the team comprised of players with backgrounds in various other games.
