Dec 3, 2018Well, I sure was wrong! This game is amazing! Though it isn't beginner-friendly, I realized that motivates you to keep trying and "git gud." Though I haven't gotten any wins yet ( as of writing this), it's still really fun and I really recommend it. The long download time is definitely worth it.

Dec 29, 2019this game is pure cringe...its on switch which is good and is the best version but its just pure cringe
-
Sep 10, 2019The best game I have ever played. Very interesting and exciting. This game should try everybody
-
Oct 18, 2019Very good port! In season 1 of the chapter 2 works very good. Good graphics, good Light, good detalization.
-
Apr 18, 2021The game is great.
I play it on nintendo switch and really enjoy it.
The only problem with the game is that the 80% of the community are little kids and there is no way to get a decent skin but mothers credit card and kids who cant buy skins are being bullied in school but fortnite do not give a chance to get a free skin.
the game it self is great -
May 24, 2022Good game, but absolutely unplayable on the Switch due to performance issues. You're better off playing on any other platform.

Jul 13, 2018After I wrote my review of Fortnite for the Xbox One, I decided to give it another chance when it came to the Switch. When I started playing it, I realized that its more than just a cash grab, it’s a fun cash grab. This game is actually quite fun and I would recommend it for anyone who likes playing these battle royale games.

Nov 14, 2018I spent more time updating the game than I did playing it. Between the clunky controls, the messy HUD, the barren overworld and the lack of stimulation, it’s a wonder how this game got to be so popular in the first place. I genuinely don’t get it.
-
Jul 13, 2018It is Fortnite. A great early access game with a slight quality dip which is okay except when a sniper can somehow see you but you cant see them without a sniper of your own. Still an overall fun experience though!

Aug 11, 2018The worst game of 2017. This "Game" is simply a copy of PUBG, only graphics that are awful are changing and you can build a woodshed, to hide in it. This game will never achieve what other games have achieved, for example Overwatch.
-
Nov 2, 2018This game is poor…
It does not deserved to be the most played game now!
Boring after a while… I give it 4 beacuse i've ben playing it for 3 months and i did not see the truth comming -
Apr 28, 2019Revert the "no shield per kill' update and you got yourself a good game
-
Dec 26, 2018It's a game with only one map, without soundtrack and artificial intelligence. Very boring to play alone. The unic good thing is that the game is free.
-
Dec 8, 2020It’s...fine, but it really needs a stronger setup to be worth playing consistently, which the switch struggles to provide, the game in general is also starting to become stale with epic largely relying on brand deals to keep the game somewhat relevant
-
Jun 25, 2023This game is laggy which will get you killed in game quickly since its cross play the people on better consoles easily destroy everyone on switch, and then the way overpriced microtransactions are insane 10 to 15 dolars for a single skin is stupid.
-
Mar 2, 2019Apex came, fortnite died. let's be honest guys apex legends beats fortnite in so many ways. You had your 5 minutes. I am not a fan of battle royale games.
-
Apr 5, 2019I get the hype, still don't like it tho. The map is so big, and a lot of the time, nothing is happening. Not to mention I suck at it. Not completely terrible, just not for me,
-
Apr 19, 2019I have to say that it doesn't look very well because sometimes I think even on a Mobile Phone this Game looks better then the switch Version. Also the Controls aren't that great. Yes it's free to play but if you don't have any other console or an medium powered PC then you better don't try it. It's not worth the hassle.

Jun 8, 2019Bad game gets boring after a Month. All this game is you spawn in s island with 100 people you hit stuff and die by a person thats it.
-
May 25, 2020Fun but dont play in switch if you can avoid it. 1100 ping is not fun (that's the max number that will register on the switch) 30fps also bad. Best part is that everyone on switch is a bot.

Jun 11, 2023When I first played this game, I was bored out of my mind the whole time, as I felt that barely anything was happening. However, As I continued to play, I actually began to have some fun with this title. Now, I can say that this game is actually not that bad. It's not fully my cup of tea and certainly not something I'd play everyday, but I can understand why so many people genuinely enjoy this.

Oct 22, 2019Spiel macht nicht so viel Spaß für Kleinkinder designt nur Gruppenkeile macht Spaß
-
Dec 18, 2019This **** took me too much time, could've spent this precious time grinding celeste. Worst decision of my life. Bad framerates and even worse controls. I gave it a one instead of zero because the amount of money i spent on Fortnite. Please die Fortnite. You don't deserve your title.
DON'T DOWNLOAD -
Jan 6, 2020I work for my local McDonald's restaurant and people kept asking for the fortnite burger until I got curious as to what fortnite is, this game is good but I kept dying to these people building the White House constantly so I gave up.
STOP ASKING FOR A FORTNITE BURGER!!!!! -

Feb 22, 2020This game is **** to be honest. Its only good if you play it with friends,the games graphics is shıt on the switch, the community is horrible. Only play this if you are a 11 year old that calls everyone a hacker when you die. 6.6
-
Mar 8, 2020Amazing game , lots of fun and to be able to play portable and docked is just outstanding
-
Sep 1, 2020Awesome game. Updates every week or two. Hell-ton of game modes and things to do. And one of the very few shooters that is actually playable on switch.
-
Feb 7, 2021Wanted to post this where since the majority of reviewers realise this isn’t minecraft and start screaming their faces off, the gameplay can be fun and varied and can also be quite unique each game, don’t be put down by negative reviews, it’s a bunch of crybaby’s who don’t understand that people can have different opinions than theirs

May 11, 2020It's a well made game it's funny i really enjoy playng fortnite, it's one of my favourite videogames.

Jul 1, 2020el juego pudo ser mejor disfrutable la verdad el juego se podia ver un poco mejor e ir a 60 FPS
-
Jun 2, 2020fortnite was nothing more than a cheep overhyped free to play cash grab.anamation and grapics are bad,wepons are as geniracic as they can be,and the building system makes gun skill worthless in the game.not to menton the mass amounts of microtransactions where you pay 20$ for a non customizeable skin.overall,it shoud of never got all the attenton it did get.

Jun 5, 2020Fortnite for Nintendo Switch is sooo bad the controlls are bad as **** and you play with 10 Fps. Its lagging so much i don't like it.

-
Dec 6, 2020Can't land without getting killed by cross console players, controls are terrible, and half the players are cross console and you don't get to play when they can build faster than this console can manage. Terrible game that's not worth the storage space
-
Feb 3, 2021It's not a bad game. It just gets boring after a while. I lost the urge to play it after a week. I like the bright art style, but the gunplay is really weird and uncomfortable
-
Mar 1, 2021very good helpful and game to have fun the game has a unique experience of building and yes it is a shooting game but no blood and just fun their is different game mode like a creative sandbox mode where you can do anything and let you mind take off. their is also skins and cosmetics you can get the games awesome.

Apr 12, 2021Man i think its like one of the best 3rd person shooters and i love it to play with friends but this season is actually ****
-
Apr 25, 2021Ignoring the fanbase, this is a pretty mediocre shooting game with a unique building mechanic with too many microtransactions. I understand the hype, but that doesn't mean I don't hate it.
-
Jun 29, 2021Muy repetitivo y adictivo a la vez, malos gráficos, comunidad tóxica. A veces el chat de voz no responde, en resumen una mierda

Sep 22, 2021This might be a little controversial, but i really like this game. I of course liked it a ton more back in the day a few years ago when everyone played it. The game also looks like ass on switch but that's the console i use most often so i play it on that. Fun game, needs some improvement :)

Nov 14, 2021I definitely recommend
it seems to me a very good game is fortnite.

here is a small overview. maybe someone will be useful.

Nov 17, 2021This n9t the prettiest version of the game but it is Awsome to have console version that is mobilized as long you have good internet. If you interested in a solid shooter then look no further than Fortnite on the Nintendo Switch
-
May 5, 2022This is a well-done port. You can put tons of time into it. You’ll die a lot, of course, but collecting weapons and shooting enemies is an entertaining experience.
-
Apr 28, 2022Fortnite at its peak was arguably the greatest multiplayer game of all time; however, throughout the years, it has grown into a childish, frustrating game that feels completely different than the game that changed the lives of so many people back in 2018.

May 5, 2022how do you even rate a game that changes so drastically every few months? it has seen some highs and some lows, but i'd say it's fine, fun with friends at least
-
May 7, 2022This switch version is the worst one graphics are still good,and it has bad controls.
-
May 9, 2022This is super low quality for a switch game, to be honest. Sure, not every game can be pushed to its limit, sure, but I just don't like it.
-
May 26, 2022Another lackluster port. Get ready for 10-20 FPS every time there's a decent amount of people on screen.
-
May 26, 2022For one, Save the World is not available on the Switch port of Fortnite. Two, ever since 2018, the game has increasingly gotten harder to run. Used to be a really smooth experience, now it's just a laggy mess being matched up with players better than you on different platforms.
-
Jun 14, 2022fortnite es entretenido en momentos pero no devo ser el unico que le perdio el interes al juego, porque ahora no hay nada interesante ademas de las colaboraciones con skins, que ironicamente son un disfraz para ocultar la mediocridad del juego en la actualidad

Sep 19, 2022Un juego médiocre en pocas palabras lo único decente son los eventos así de simple la verdad duele.
-
Jul 12, 2022The game is boring because all the players now is pro and newbies cant play
-
Aug 18, 2022Alongside July's crew pack, the new Dragon Ball Super x Fortnite collaboration brings with it a host of skins to unlock by completing special event quests and collecting power balls

Apr 21, 2023Fortnite is nothing but a masterpiece
This game changed my life forever as it is just so fun and cool
The game is great to play with friends and honestly is okay to spend money on (just not too much) as all you need is to buy vbucks once and then as long as you complete the battle pass will be gifted with even more profits each season. -

Sep 3, 2018Fortnite brings a lot to the table with season 5, and while it is certainly worth your time and money, I just wish it could be a tad bit smoother before calling it “perfect”.

Aug 7, 2018Fortnite Battle Royale delivers a perfect balance in gunplay, progression and sandbox elements. No wonder it may be 2018's gaming phenomenon. We even like the way microtransactions allow players to enter new challenges and earn cosmetics for the game, but don´t alter the core mechanics.
