Epic Games developed Fortnite, an online video game, in 2017, featuring three game modes that share the same game engine and general gameplay. These modes are Fortnite Battle Royale, Fortnite: Save the World, and Fortnite Creative. In Battle Royale, up to 100 players fight to be the last person standing, while Save the World is a cooperative hybrid tower defense-shooter and survival game where players defend objects with traps and fortifications against zombie-like creatures. Creative mode offers players the freedom to create worlds and battle arenas. While Save the World and Creative have been successful, Battle Royale became a cultural phenomenon and attracted over 125 million players within a year of release, generating hundreds of millions of dollars per month. As of December 2019, Fortnite as a whole generated $9 billion in gross revenue.
