Fortnite: Battle Royale's New 'Solo Showdown' Mode Comes With Some Massive Rewards

Fortnite: Battle Royale's competitive mode arrived a lot sooner than we thought. Developer Epic Games just announced Solo Showdown, a limited time mode live in the game right now. On the outset, it's the same thing as the normal solo game: drop onto an island with 100 players, get weapons, kill everyone else, stand alone triumphant on the top of the mountain, repeat. What's different, however, is huge. This is a scored mode designed as a proving ground for the best players in the game, and as such, it comes with massive V-Buck rewards for those that come out on top.
