Well that is nothing short of a milestone if you ask us and even though I myself am not that into Fortnite even I must admit that such a feat is outright impressive. But more then that it is a testimony to the hard work that Epic Games also keeps putting into the franchise each and every time.

Psyonix, the creators of Rocket League are another party who take a lot of care when it comes to their sole franchise.
