As we've had the latest Chapter 5 stuff we received 3 new games that are here to stay including Lego Fortnite (Allow you to purchase Lego versions of characters), Rocket Racing (Using Rocket League Vehicles) & Fortnite Festival (created by the original devs of Rock Band).

Do you think we could see more game developers trying to release there games connected to Fortnite especially if Epic Games starts making a way for Indie / lower end developers to earn money from releasing games & experiences on the platform?

Yeah it does seem like big games are trying to turn into platforms, take Minecraft they are trying to make there own eco-system for game devs as well.

Until the next generation finds a new trending game Fortnite will be the go to gaming advertisement surface with endless crossovers, pop culture references, merch bait products and memes so the kids can be glued to the screens and make the parents spend money.

It's a brilliant move to involve Lego as it's widely popular, but I can't see people using Fortnite as a sort of storefront/creation kit as it will probably have its limitation compared to a regular game purchased and played on its own.

I know this wasn't intentional but the whole phrasing of "created by the devs of rockband" has "Boruto's Dad" levels of energy lol
