Some fans of Fortnite were worried that there would be no storyline for Fortnite and that these superheroes being added to Fortnite would ruin the storyline Epic are known for having in the game. However, Donald Mustard, Worldwide Creative Director at Epic Games, assured fans that the storyline is actually connected:
It’s ALL connected. Pay attention. The story is about to kick into overdrive…
