The Battle Royale game Fortnite was definitely up there amongst the rank of big titles of 2017. And with how things are going, it will probably achieve the same result in 2018. If you don’t know anything about this popular game by developer Epic Games, then it is a third-person game. The camera will be put behind the character. This is the correct approach. Fortnite includes a lot of building activities, and a first person perspective could make building difficult.
Still, with Fortnite being a shooting game, many fans would love to see what it could be like to play in first person perspective. While Epic Game has released many Limited Time Event, the long-desired first person mode is still eluding players.
With the situation being as it is, a fan and Youtuber by the name of Mad Box has taken it upon themselves to give everyone an idea of what First-person Fortnite could be like.
"Fornite in First Person"
By utilizing the replay mode in the game, Mad Box was able to experiment with the game’s perspectives and create a simulation. Of course, this experiment has a lot of bugs. After all, the developer never intended for the game the game to have a first person mode. Still, this video has fulfilled its purpose of demonstrating Fortnite in first person.
An official first person mode by Epic Games is unlikely to happen anytime soon. Being a free-to-play game, Fortnite’s main income comes from selling skins to players. With first person perspective, players are unable to see their characters. This could mean people are less likely to spend money on something they themselves cannot enjoy. Of course, if Epic Games decide to introduce a first person mode in the future, it would be a most welcomed addition. It would no doubt improve the quality and immersion of gameplay.
Here are some pictures of Fortnite in first-person mode:
