At the beginning of this month, we saw a change of tone with the 'We The People' event, which was hosted to create a discourse again racism. All these Party Royale events have proved to be extremely successful for Fortnite.

However, the biggest of these events happened back in April, in the form of Travis Scott's 'Astronomical' concert.
