In a series of back and forth tweets, the Houseparty Twitter andFortniteTwitter announced that the two are working together to giveFortnitefans some extra incentives to use the video chat app. After Houseparty announced it had created aFortnitetrivia deck for fans to answer questions, the two announced a contest. IfFortnitefans can answer a collective 20 million questions correctly in the Houseparty App by April 16th, everyone inFortnitewill be rewarded. It’s a great way for fans tosay #ThankYouEpicGameswith their support.
The Houseparty app is designed for video chatting while answering trivia on Chrome, macOS, or other mobile devices. Users can play party games together while hanging out online, which is a great thing for a lot of users right now who are locked inside because ofcoronavirus lockdowns. So in a sense this is a great thing forFortnitefans that really want to connect to friends and also like trivia.
However, in spite of great crossovers like Deadpool and apossibleTiger Kingskin coming,Fortnitedoesn’t seem to be doing as well as Epic Games would like it to be. Revenue is down from the millions that Epic made in 2018, and although players came back in droves for the new season, players seem to be leaving for different Battle Royale games likeWarzoneandPUBG.
Can this strange crossover event help to saveFortnite?FamousFortnitestreamers like SypherPK andNinja have other ideas for what could saveFortnite. But only time will tell if those changes are ones that Epic is willing to make or if they would save this dwindling Battle Royale game from monotony.
Fortniteis available for PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, Android, iOS, Microsoft Windows, and Macintosh operating systems.
