In recent times, Fortnite has become a home for characters from DC, Marvel, Star Wars, Ghostbusters, and several others. This makes Fortnite an alluring game, and also adds to the title's presence in popular culture.
The younger generation of players makes up a massive section of the Fortnite community. Epic Games have always managed to attract their Fortnite players with innovative skins and emotes. This formula has worked in the past, and it continues to do so.

This was also a result of their issues with Apple, as several players had to shift platforms. Despite all the criticism, Fortnite remains to be one of the best BR games out there, especially when it comes to merging popular culture with the game.
