Fortnite PlayStation 4 Bundle Leaked with Exclusive Royale Bomber Skin

The team over at the PlayStation Italia Facebook page appear to have announced a new bundle ahead of schedule.

[XiNatsuDragnel]

Crazy

[CorndogBurglar]

I think people are missing the real funny part.

They are offering a bundle. A console that is bundled with an already free game...

[Dirtnapstor]

It will probably include the SP component Save the World.

[G3ng4r]

And a skin to make donations to a good cause that sony steals a cut of.

[Thatguy-310]

save the world isnt free

[Ron_Danger]

@G3ng4r

So where's your proof that Sony is stealing donations? Because that claim would be a federal crime. Stealing donations for gain is embezzlement:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/...

Now if you want to dive into shady practices for a free to play game, what's your opinion of Microsoft forcing you pay to play Fortnite on Xbox? Xbox is the only device that locks Fortnite behind a pay wall.

[Aenea]

It does include the $/€40 costing Save the World tho...

[NewMonday]

If this becomes a best-seller I don't wan't to hear anymore cross-play rants.

[PUBG]

Hopefully there will be a warning on the box, informing people that their Fornite accounts will be locked to the PS4.

[Aceman18]

Hey crossplay fanatics why don't you go complain to MS that they should allow FF14 on the system with crossplay. Oh that's right SE said M$ said no because they only wanted their gamers to play on a separate server.

SE told them nope.

[Eonjay]

@PUBG

How's that law suit going?

[admiralvic]

"I think people are missing the real funny part."

I don't know if I'd say that, since Fortnite itself is kind of funny for the same reason, at least when you think about it. Battle Royale aside, you're talking about a game that was designed to go free-to-play, but was sold, even in retail stores, as essentially an early access title (everything past the second world, at least at launch, was just reusing designs of previous areas), with all the negatives of a free-to-play game. If it wasn't for luck and Battle Royale, I wouldn't be shocked if Fortnite would've been declared a failure.

" A console that is bundled with an already free game..."

That being said, it isn't unheard of to offer paid content for a free game in a bundle. Tera, Warframe and many other free-to-play games offer special bundled versions with exclusive content, though, in this case, it's fascinating how people speculate about something the image, site and Facebook page outright detail (I know, no one actually READS the articles posted here, which is another "real funny part."). It includes a pathetic 500 V-Bucks and a unique skin. I mean, it's better than nothing, but not much more than it either.

However, I'm still happy to have the bundle. Not because it's useful, it really isn't, but because some people are so stupid it makes me wonder how they function in the world. For example, here is a recent interaction:

-gets called over there- Guy "Yes, I hoping you'd have a bundle with Fortnite." Me "We do not, but Fortnite is free." Guy "What do you mean?" Me "It's free." Guy "Yes, but what does this mean?" Me "It doesn't cost money?" Guy "So, I don't need to buy it?" Me "No. It's free." Guy "As in, I don't need to purchase a disc?" Me "Yes. That is what free means." -walks away- Guy "But I still don't know what you mean by free!"

[KillBill]

Everyone commenting on 'Save the World'... come on people you could make that part free and people wouldn't care. Fortnite is all about the FREE Battle Royal... anything else is... meh.

[butchertroll]

Save The World isn't free. It cost 40$

[Godmars290]

Fat lot of good that would do them. In a sane world.

In ours? it'll like sell well enough to convince them to keep doing what they're doing.

[JesusBuiltmyHotrod]

LOL what? It's hliarious watching Nintendo and MS fans act like Cross play is some huge deal..out side of hardcore gamers no one cares. Ps4 more expensive keeps easily outsellling xbox. Games are more important. Keep doing what they are doing...investing in studios who make great games for their fanbase.

[SarkyPlays]

Nobody cares? Greg Miller (a well known self confessed Playstation fanboy has even called Sony out for this) nd there’s PLENTY of gamers I’ve seen on twitter and other forums calling them out, it seems it’s a bigger issue than some are trying to downplay it to be

[bluefox755]

It's a non-issue, and this is reflected in the fact that it's had zero effect on sales. MS isn't closing the gap now that they are in favor of something they used to be against, because it benefits them far more than it would Sony. I don't know anyone outside of N4G that cares about crossplay.

[Lovable]

I love how people kept on bringing Greg Miller as if he is their All god father. No one cares about cross play. DEAL WITH IT!

[Uken12]

Don't be dumb, play a PC gamer on FN with your PS4. You get romped. Fortnite is much better on PC. PS4 delusion is real. All the pros play on PC.

Crossplay is important, people have wanted it for a long time. Sony is behind on this one.

[Software_Lover]

My sons want to play with each other and they are far from hardcore. They are 10 and 12. One plays on PS4 and the other plays on XB1X.

I have never said anything about Crossplay in my home as I don't play multiplayer games for the most part, but they are always asking why they can't play with each other "it's just the internet".

[Ricegum]

Oh of course Software Lover thinks it's a big deal, he's so pro Xbox it's ridiculous 😂

The only people who think crossplay is such a big deal are Microsoft fans and randomers on the internet. In the real world, no one actually gives a damn.

[neutralgamer1992]

sarky

the same fat greg miller who didn't have his friends back and went after corporate money more than standing by his friend(Colin) yeah no we don't want him associated with ps brand. he doesn't represent us and he use to be with PS under ign now he covers all platforms

point stands cross play isn't important
backwards compatibility isn't important
game pass isn't important
ea access isn't important

exclusives games are important
they sell systems

don't believe me look at sea of thieves, PUBG, and SOD2 all selling so well on xbox one that tells us xbox fans are desperate for games because they are buying broken/unfinished and games with glitches in high numbers

Cross play is offered on PS4 with PC, ps4 has more cross play titles than xbox one and switch combined, and ps4 lets you play F2P games without requiring psn. But since E3 MS seems to have paid a lot of people money to talk bad about ps4

UKEN

the only one delusional here is you it seems since ps4 does offer cross play with PC

sony has a bad history with ms,nintendo that's why we won't see cross play with them

nintendo backed out of billion dollar deal with sony and embarrassed them at E3 by going with their competition and MS executives are on record saying bill gates wanted xbox to run PS out of business yet some of you think sony will jump in

[KickSpinFilter]

@SarkyPlays
Again...the issue is not about crossplay. It's about locking your progression into PS4. Ideally your game save should be able to move from PS4 to Switch to PC and back again. As far as MT's go I think it's fair to have those locked to a certain device. (So your "jacket will not play on Switch for instance if bought on PS4)

[Hardiman]

It is silly because if crossplay is such an issue for Sony then why pray tell is the PS4 selling so much better than Xbox One? It looks to me it's more of an issue for M$ and less so for Sony!

Also Epic can't be too upset because now we have a Fortnite bundle as well!

[343_Guilty_Spark]

Do your knee pads have a Sony logo on them?

[ILostMyMind]

For them it is. Who else are they going to play with?

[arkard]

@sarky those are mostly trolls who have nothing to play on their own console so they latch onto the latest "controversy" and pose as Sony fans dissapointed in their policy

[Mikechester]

Sad to know that ps4 fans like you are mentally braindead and the 49+ n4g users have liked your retarded comment.

[MattE]

bluefox755

How do you know it hasn't affected sales? It's only just started to get headlines

This is the problem with this generation of gamers, spout sh*t out without any thought or common sense just to be part of the winning team

[tontontam0]

MS and Nintendo are advertising to bury the fact that you could play fortnite batle royale on ps4 without subscribing to ps plus.

soon nintendo will also be charging for online play.

[CDbiggen]

Damage control.

[2pacalypsenow]

Whatever Sony is doing, seems to be working.

[MuddyWaters]

Same with Electronic Arts too and Ubisoft and Activision. After all you guys seem to think all that matters is sales.

[UCForce]

@MuddyWaters I’m pretty sure MS and Nintendo care about sales as well.

[2pacalypsenow]

@MuddyWaters

Sony has the sales and the games.

What else is there for a console? Sony wins and the gamers win.

Only ones loosing are people who don’t have a PlayStation.

And if you think MS and Nintendo don’t care about sales, I got news for you.

[MuddyWaters]

You guys complain about how Electronic Arts does business and since sales is all that matters then you should stop complaining, It's the same defense force mechanism you guys display about crossplay. So if one argument is that's just business then please try and be consistent about it.

[Rude-ro]

The game will take a hit soon anyways and most likely due to crossplay.
The nerfs going into the game are to try and close the skill gap due to players getting pub stomped by pc players.
Building is getting nerfed and shotguns have been nerfed...
They are slowly taking away the fun of the game. Streamers across the board are getting frustrated.., lose them, lose the larger base market.

[Z501]

"The game will take a hit soon"

No it won't. It's not even officially released yet. Watch what happens when Save the World goes F2P and people can start farming V-Bucks.

[Goldby]

@z501

this is epic we are talkign about. they shut down a game that wasnt even fully released becuase they were losoing community due to nerfs and changes they made that the community is against. if this is happening agian with this, it will happen just as it did with Paragon.

being in early access dont save it from being shut down. and when save the world (which is rarely supported) does become free to play for everyone, they are gonna nerf Vbucks as well, into the ground. would be shocked if it went down into the single or double digits for vbuck farming. 50 max i could see

[Rude-ro]

@Z501
I’m not saying it negatively for any reason except for that is the current situation.
You can farm all the v-bucks you want, but if the game keeps nerfing the skill gap, players will leave.
A lot of the player base is from destiny.. and we saw what happens to a game if they nerf skill gaps. Streamers leave and the horde follows.
Thankfully they update rather quickly, so if said nerf fails, they will pull it I would think.

[DialgaMarine]

It’ll sell very well, regardless of how bad some people want it to. This whole cross play debate has been on for quite some time now, yet PS4 continues to be the market leader and the console of choice for third party games by the majority of console users. Clearly this whole thing is far more overblown than many claim.

Funny how all these fanboys and media outlets continue to ignore the fact that cross play/ cross progression works fine between PS4 and PC. At the end of the day, Sony doesn’t have a cross play problem; they’ve been doing it with PC since the PS2 era. They have “not wanting to give in to MS and their whiney fanboy temper tantrum demands” problem. I say, keep it up. Xbox fanboys always talk so much crap about PSN and their users, but then cry when they can’t play with us because their precious XBL is drying up. Enjoy the desert, shills.

Also, Gangsta and Septic, stop dodging the fact that MS does the same exact thing to Steam users, yet you refuse to say a word while you continue to call Sony “anti-consumer. Guys like you aren’t pro-consumer; you’re just Pro-MS.

[RauLeCreuset]

Why do people act like they're new to this concept of how consoles make money? Consoles make money by establishing a customer base that buys within their ecosystem. Sony has the larger share of customers among consoles. They don't want to share their customers with their competitors, because they have more to lose than to gain from their competitors' smaller customer bases. MS isn't even pooling all of their customers, because F2P is locked behind a paywall.

[Kokyu]

No its not. Any F2P game is free to play with out PS+

[Goldby]

@Koyku

hes talking about xbox, you need gold to play onlione no matter if its a free to play game or not

[RauLeCreuset]

@Goldby

Yes. Thank you.

@Kokyu

I was unable to flesh out my point as well as I wanted. Think of cross-pay/cross-progression as a form of pooling customers. MS is not offering up all of their Xbox Live subscribers in that arrangement, only the Xbox Live Gold subs, because F2P is locked behind the Gold paywall.

Sony doesn't lock F2P behind a paywall. They would be making available all PSN subs, and they already outnumbered Live subs without Xbox limiting the number of their Live subs being shared to Gold subs.

That's a bad arrangement for Sony. Consoles rely on people making purchases within their ecosystems. The odds are far greater that a PS4 player would migrate to a competitor console and spend money in that competitor's ecosystem (through the purchase of F2P add-ons) than a customer from one of their competitor consoles migrating to spend money in the PS4 ecosystem.

[DialgaMarine]

It’s just your usual corporate shilling bro. MS could come out tomorrow and say “Nevermind, we’re no longer interested in cross play anymore”, and guaranteed 95% of these “pro-consumers” will respond with “well, we didn’t really want it anyways”.

[-volt-]

Cool I can't wait to see it when I cross play with someone.

[Rude-ro]

You can cross play...
You can not carry your account around. You know, like most other games available.

[2pacalypsenow]

I cant carry my BF1 account from the PS4 and play it on my Xbox tho..

I couldn't carry my COD account and stats from the 360 to my Ps4 tho..

[Ron_Danger]

@2pacalypse

This is reminding me of when Rock Band 4 launched this gen and so many Xbox users switched to PS4 and lost all of the dlc songs they purchased in the MS store. They complained on the Harmonix forums for about a month, then they got over it and it was back to business as usual.

[The 10th Rider]

...But the different between Fortnite and most other games is that Fortnite DOES allow you to carry it between some platforms. With BF, CoD, and countless other games your progress doesn't transfer between any consoles. With Fortnite it transfers between some consoles and there's only one company blocking it from transferring between all consoles. I don't see how that's so hard to understand. How can anyone look at that and defend it?

[Rude-ro]

@the 10th
That’s the point.. why is it such a huge deal being it is a first step in the process?
The issue is opening up your system and Sony is very picky about it for very clear and good reasons.
The overall attack is a publicity stunt from other businesses in the market.
The ordeal is not huge because it is not common practice by anyone else.
In fact, Microsoft’s play anywhere is far worse with consumers because you HAVE to buy the Xbox version to play “anywhere” on pc even if you own the game already on pc. See pubg.
This is fine and was of no issue to anyone, but when a game finally offers it, it is the worst thing a company can do when what they are doing has been what 98% of what all consoles still do.

[Ricegum]

10th Rider

"How can anyone look at that and defend it?"

Because no one actually gives a damn, apart from you Xbox guys.

[The 10th Rider]

@Rude-ro,

If the issue is about opening up their system, why do they allow it with PC and mobile? Both of those are more open to security flaws than other consoles are.

It is absolutely a big issue. There's literally a company that wants to let you share your progress for a game across all consoles, and only one console maker is blocking it. It doesn't matter if it's not common practice, it would be better for gamers if it became common practice.

Even on the largest PS4 community on the internet, the PS4 subreddit, one of the top posts during E3 week was asking Sony to let people share their Fortnite progress with other consoles. It got as much as attention as anything Sony showed off during E3, so it is absolutely a huge issue for not just Xbox and Switch gamers, but Sony gamers as well.

Around here you guys just try to donwplay the issue and point fingers elsewhere or bring up other things to try put the attention on a different company. It's just sad and pathetic.

EDIT: @Unreal01,

See the third paragraph. Obviously people care about it otherwise it wouldn't be an issue, lol. It's one of the top posts of the month on the Fortnite Subreddit. It is the third highest upvoted post of ALL TIME on the PS4 subreddit, with 10,000 more upvotes than the gameplay of The Last of Us 2 from E3. That's a community of almost 1,000,000 people. Also, I don't own an Xbox at all. I care about it because it would be awesome to be able to transfer data between all consoles and one company is blocking a developer from implementing that.

[spartan112g]

Now that it’s been done, the flood gates are opened. Just like how the iPhone opened the floodgates for touch screen phones consumers are now asking, “well, why not?” You’re all using examples that are no longer relevant since they were pre-crossplay/cross-progressio n. What has been seen cannot be unseen now that Nintendo and Microsoft have shown it’s possible. Also, I platted God of War and Horizon, so don’t @ me about being a fanboy.

[RauLeCreuset]

@The 10th Ridet

"...But the different between Fortnite and most other games is that Fortnite DOES allow you to carry it between some platforms."

It obviously doesn't allow it between PS4 and competiting consoles. That's the point you don't seem to get. Sony has exercised their right not to allow it the same as Sony and competing consoles have historically exercised that right and continue to exercise that right with other games. Do you also get outraged when PSN or XBL have a multiplatform game on sale that the other online store doesn't?

[The 10th Rider]

"Sony has exercised their right not to allow it"

That's exactly the point. They have exercised their right to not let block Epic from letting your save data transfer between platforms, even though the system is already in place. They should be encouraged to change their stance on that because it's anti-consumer. Microsoft changed their stance on a lot of things following backlash from the Xbox One reveal. EA changed their stance on season passes and loot boxes. Suddenly when it comes to Sony everyone on this site is okay with anti-consumer policies. As I pointed out previously, on the biggest PS4 community on the internet it is the third highest upvoted post of all time, ahead of anything that Sony showed at E3.

". . . competing consoles have historically exercised that right and continue to exercise that right with other games."

I'd love to know when such a feature was already implemented and ready to go, but was blocked by another console manufacturer.

"Do you also get outraged when PSN or XBL have a multiplatform game on sale that the other online store doesn't?"

What does that even have to do with the situation? It's not even remotely the same thing, lol.

[RauLeCreuset]

Rider

"The system" has always been in place. This isn't an issue of technology. It's an issue of permission. Of course Ninty and MS want to give theirs in their position. They stand to gain an influx of customers spending money in their stores while shoring up their online communities. Stripped of this ridiculous notion that Epic has enabled something heretofore not possible, your argument amounts to little more than saying Sony should do something just because their competitors did. That's why I teased you about getting mad at one system when the other has a sale.

[The 10th Rider]

It's not that it previously wasn't possible, it's that no company has done such a thing in the past. You have yet to provide an example where such a thing was in place previously and another console-maker denied it. You can't because it hasn't happened in the past. Now there is a company that has implemented such a feature and there is one console manufacturer that is denying it. It's well within their rights to do so, but it would be better for gamers as a whole if they allowed it.

"Your argument amounts to little more than saying Sony should do something just because their competitors did."

Funny you say that and ignore that I literally said "It would be better for gamers if it became common practice." As I already pointed out, and you conveniently ignored, it got more attention on the largest PS4 community on the internet than *anything* that Sony showed at E3. It's clearly an issue that PS4 gamers care about on top of gamers on other consoles.

[Ron_Danger]

PS4 can still cross play with PC, Mac, IOS, and android:

https://www.tomsguide.com/u...

[-volt-]

Lol it was sarcasm

[Thatguy-310]

You could with PC and mobile :D Sweet right

[corroios]

The New way to try and attack Sony, lol. Cross play Accounts. Go make more ads...

[yomfweeee]

But no one is going to buy PS4 anymore because of no cross play with X1 and Switch!

/sarcasm

[DialgaMarine]

lol Exactly. The way these fanboys and shills cry about it, you’d believe that 80+ million people bought a PS4 for that reason alone lol

[bellome]

Announced, not leaked.

[BLUEKNIFE]

Well done

[BLAKHOODe]

I've spent ridiculous amounts of money on Fortnite skins, but I don't think I'm going to buy another PS4 for that one. And I'll say it now, if that skin isn't available in any other way, I'll troll the life out of anyone I catch using it in-game!

[Kokyu]

Um cause that person must have bought a new ps4 to get ? I dont understand, you would have no idea if its their 1st or 40th ps4 they bought.

[BLAKHOODe]

Yea. And because it's fun. For me, anyway. 😏

[Goldby]

boo who, would you like a scooby doo bandaid or a power puff girl bandaid.

you cant transfer your progress from bF1 on ps4 to xbox, why do u think you can with a free to play game that doesnt support cross cross play between the consoles...

you know, like every freaking game made for this generation

[spartan112g]

Not only is your comment out of place, it’s also stupid.

[Goldby]

@spartan.

its not stupid.
people are demanding cross progrssion on a game that doesnt support it and are shocked their items dont carry opver.

where the hate for BF1 or Cod, or Destiny. all game that dont offer items moving from one console to another and dont offer cross play betwen the consoles.

they are in the same boat as fortnite when ti comes to xbox and ps4,

[BLAKHOODe]

Seriously, man. Sony blocking cross-play doesn't benefit you or any console gamer at all. And maybe you don't care, because allowing it in Fortnite wouldn't benefit you directly anyway since you don't know anybody that plays on other consoles. I don't know what your reasons are, not do I really care. But what about later on? Maybe not Fortnite, but whatever other game is a monster hit down the road that is cross-play capable and, who knows, maybe then you'd like to have it. Now is the time to fight for this. Not later. But if you want to defend Sony and kick yourself in the balls while doing so. That's you. Have fun.

[Goldby]

@blackhood

Read my previous comments. I'm for crossplay. Just I know it won't happen now as it's bad for the leader, just like it was bad for MS last gen.
I have repeated said that the only way it will truly work for everyone is if it's started at the beginning of a generation when everyone is on a level playing field

[RauLeCreuset]

@Goldby

I can see another way to make it happen. Implement a revenue sharing structure that proportionally rewards the console manufacturer bringing more customers in. Right now you have Fortnite trying to implement customer sharing without a revenue sharing mechanic. That doesn't work for the leader. I'm not sure how likely it is all parties could come to an agreement on revenue sharing though.

[BLAKHOODe]

@Goldby

Maybe it won't happen this generation. But the next generation isn't far off and now is the time for gamers to make themselves be heard. Change won't happen unless you get off your butt and do something.

As for the down votes - I get it. Gamers are the most diverse group there is. And the big 3 love us for being that way. We all have our different view points. So, go ahead and down vote the hell out of every post I make. I take it as a compliment; a badge of honor.

[Tobse]

Ahahahha a free game in this super awesome Bundle 😂😂😂

[Goldby]

its actually the full game.

but you keep doing you

[Tobse]

ye because so many people play the base game ahjahahahaha

[UCForce]

Very childish and immature statement from you.

[Tobse]

Meanwhile your comment below

[UCForce]

At least, i’m more aware with my comments history because I don’t consider myself a perfect person. You however lack of self control and your attitude is very childish and unprofessional.

[Tobse]

You should actually sit back and read your comment history. Im not a writer for IGN so how exactly am I unprofessional?

Have fun buying the Bundle if you want, gonna be a homerun of a deal.

[UCForce]

Do I care about buying Fronite Bundle ? No, I have better game like God Of War, Doom, Sniper Elite 4, Titanfall 2, Uncharted 4, Deus Ex Mankind Divided and more to fill my satisfaction. So yeah, you are the one who sit back and read your comment history. Because like I said, I have better games than Fronite. Besides, I don’t care about online gaming anymore.

[Tobse]

Have fun playing with yourself

[UCForce]

Well, Sony is just savage at this point.

[Kokyu]

I thought the same thing

[UCForce]

Sony is like : “Survival Of The Fittest”.

[Pancit_Canton]

Sony - 1
Haters - 0

[goldwyncq]

Haters, more like people who aren't blind fanboys defending Sony even if they are clearly in the wrong.

[Ron_Danger]

So what's your stance on Microsoft charging you to play a Free to Play game?

Fortnite is free to play on everything except Xbox because it's locked behind the Gold paywall.

[2pacalypsenow]

"So what's your stance on Microsoft charging you to play a Free to Play game?

Fortnite is free to play on everything except Xbox because it's locked behind the Gold paywall."

BINGO!

[goldwyncq]

Guess what, I don't approve of them putting a "free-to-play" game behind a paywall either.

Stop framing this as "Xbox vs Playstation" because it's not. Both companies have done wrong and need to be called out.

[gangsta_red]

"Guess what, I don't approve of them putting a "free-to-play" game behind a paywall either."

BINGO!

What you don't see is gold making excuses, pointing the blame elsewhere, making up ridiculous excuses on how "gamers dont care", "no one asked for this" or anything else to try and distract from what the issue is.

Unlike certain people here who constantly point the finger at MS. Even when this is an issue between Epic and Sony.

[ILostMyMind]

@goldwyncq
"I don't approve of them putting a "free-to-play" game behind a paywal"

... But you are not complaining either. Weird! 🤔

[RauLeCreuset]

ILostMyMind

Thank you! Hey, Gangsta, how about you show us your history of going after MS over that the way you've been going after Sony.

[UCForce]

@goldwyncq @gangsta_red No no no and no, I don’t think so. Sony is just being savage here. And there is more problems than cross play here. Do you remember how many companies have been trick by this before ? When you open market share to your competitors, one of your competitors will steal your profits and they even tried wipe you out of existence. MS will do just that. They going to steal Sony money and their market share if Sony allow to open it and wait in few years, MS will wipe Sony and Nintendo out of existence and all of their market share will belong to MS. That would be bad business for Sony and Nintendo. If you don’t believe me what I said, fine then but I guess you two never been trick by this one before, right ? In reality, you can not trust any competitors because they can steal your market share.

[Mulando]

*Ironie on* And that's why it can't be used for crossplay ;) *Ironie off*

Really .. exclusives skins … who needs that stuff?

[UCForce]

Let’s just say that Sony is being savage at this point. From what i understand, Frortnite SP aka Save the World isn’t free.

[WickedLester]

Hahahahaha!!!! Oh, the irony.

[Asuka]

Meh.

[Gamist2dot0]

First PUBG on xbox, now this on PS4. Oh well, whatever *shoots arrow*

[Goldby]

its the full save the world game included, not the free to play br mode

[Gameseeker_Frampt]

I do enjoy this whole "Crossplay account" drama. Sony not allowing you to use items you purchased through the PS Store on other consoles = bad Sony. Microsoft paying to keep PUBG off of other consoles = perfectly ok.

As for bundles, nothing says exciting like including a free-to-play game. Hopefully this bundle is the same price as the base PS4.

[Goldby]

i do enjoy this whole"i dont read the article and base it off a photo and title"

its the save the world game which is 30$ right now

[Gameseeker_Frampt]

You must of been reading a different article then since nowhere in this article are the words "Save" or "World" or even "Founders" since that is what is actually "Save the World" is part of.

It does say "Ready for summer challenges? From July 16th comes PS4 with Fortnite, the phenomenon of the year! In The Pack also there will be the special costume Royal Bomber and 500 v-bucks!" Please share with the rest of us where exactly in this article that you read "Save the World" since you feel the need to attack others for not seeing the same thing.

Including Save the World doesn't make this bundle any better either since that isn't the mode that millions of gamers are playing and there are already talks of that mode being axed by Epic. Also, Save the World is $40 on PSN. If you are going to criticize someone, at least get the facts right.

[DialgaMarine]

Don’t forget, MS dividing up the PC community by not putting their games on Steam, and denying cross play/ cross progression with games that are on both Steam and Windows Store is totally okay too. These corporate shills just can’t stick with a single poison, they’re that sad and insecure lol

[sin7279]

Hahaha go sony!

[Silly gameAr]

Isn't this a real slap in the face...to the constant whiners on n4g.

I couldn't really care less about that bundle, I just think it's hilarious.

[Kabaneri]

More damage control for the worst version of the game.

[Silly gameAr]

Worst version where it's most likely that most play apart from PC. I think that's pretty funny too.

[2pacalypsenow]

A PS4 bundle sponsored by Sony and Epic is damage control?

Your comment sounds more like damage control tbh, but keep crying, Sony loves drinking your tears.

[Kabaneri]

Sony doesnt need my tears because they already have my credit card. You one console peasants and your brand loyalty lol.

[DialgaMarine]

Pretty sure if you actually laid out a “worst” version, it would hands down be either the Switch or base Xbone version lol

But hey, both Epic and Sony are going to continue making a killing off of Fortnite, and this bundle only adds on to that fact. What’s more amazing is knowing how badly that hurts fanboy egos lol ;)

[AgeInTheCage]

You forget that the base xboxones all morphed into the X on launch day for 99% of the og xboxone owners on this site.

[DialgaMarine]

Right. I totally forgot lol

[badz149]

PS4 is the worst version how? It has the biggest player based due to crossplay with other platforms except for xbone and the (real worst version) switch and it does 60fps.

If crossplay is more important to you than 60fps, you're nothing but a sheep for MS marketing stunt!

[Kabaneri]

Xbox has 60fps too...

[ILostMyMind]

I thought the worst version was on XBO but then i remembered... there is a Switch version.

[UCForce]

Very unprofessional coming from you. I maybe care resolutions and performance, but I’m also want the game to be good.

[TKCMuzzer]

Whats funny is whilst you try to put others down you make yourself look a little bit stupid. Calling anyone peasants is just a reflection of who you are are.
I can afford all but choose not to because I have the ability to make decisions based on my preferences. You should never assume.

Oh, the PS4 version is not the worst version of the game, there are couple of worst versions out there but nice try.

[Zerobalance]

Sad so don't buy this bundle get an Xbox or Switch & play with everybody.

[Speak_da_Truth]

Yeah get an xbox so you can pay Microsoft to play Fortnite online. When its free to play on everything else. How sensible.

[ILostMyMind]

You won't play with PS users. Such a dumb decision.

[badz149]

@Zerobalance

It's funny that you said "everybody" when without the PS4 player base, there will be less players. The biggest player pool at the moment is PS4+PC+Mac+mobile. Xbone+Switch is tiny against the PS4 in terms of player count.

And it's also funny that Xbone owners are so happy playing against the worst version which is the Switch where they have the 60fps advantage too.

[TKCMuzzer]

Wow, don't forget to tell everybody that the Switch version runs at half the frame rate so you are at an immediate disadvantage, oh an that Xbox owners have to fork out for live to play 'free to play' game.
Looks different when you add actual facts, of course both Nintendo and Microsoft fail to point this out in any tweets they produce.

[AgeInTheCage]

Xbox charges you to play fortnite online via xbox gold, sony does not require plus for free to play games.

[ILostMyMind]

Actually, XB users like to pay for f2p games (aka Game Pass).

[badz149]

Xbone owners and subscriptions are match made in valhalla. They love their subscriptions and thanks to that Sony and Nintendo is now also charging. Just look at how proud they are about EA Access and Gamepass.

[P_Bomb]

Why would you bundle a free to play?! Let alone the controversial one that got ya heat on mainstream media lol?

I get that save the world costs money, but that’s not the hit mode that most ppl are playing. I’ve seen save the world in action and for the price, it’s nothing special imo. Kid’s friends are waiting for Realms Royale to hit console.

[Scatpants]

Oh cool, the worst version of Fortnite has a skin that comes with it. This will be great for people that never want to play their Fortnite account on any other platform.

[GameGod26]

That’s be the switch there bud

[badz149]

Switch version is the best due to the cinematic 30fps /s

[Scatpants]

The Switch version allows you to use your account on other platforms. The PS4 version doesn't therefore is the worst version you can play.

[Platformgamer]

ps4 is still a better choice for playing games than xbox one and switch
cry me a river about this crossplay non-issue, lurid trolls

[Scatpants]

It's not crossplay that the problem it's that they hijack your account and don't let you use it on anything else.

[Artemidorus]

Don't be fooled it's free to play and download in the store.

[badz149]

Yeah? Try to download the save the world portion for free then. Any luck?

[Artemidorus]

Had it for free since day one no need to buy another console or tbis bundle it's a con.

Millennial like you though doesn't understand that, it ok with age you might see why.

[TKCMuzzer]

ouch, fail. Don't forget your coat on the way out.

[Artemidorus]

What part is the failure part then? All I see is a clueless millennial who doesn't understand.

[ILostMyMind]

While Sony promotes the game, the developer harms Sony.

[Scatpants]

Sony not harming anyone by locking you out of using your account on other platforms? They're the only ones that do it.

[DarkVoyager]

“Epic Games has confirmed to Polygon that the PS4 bundle is currently only expected to release in Europe. The Royale Bomber skin? Also exclusive.“

Why limit this to Europe? I feel like it’s a missed opportunity by not also releasing this in the US.

[IRBGamer]

Anyone realize that system says 500GB? a 500GB PS4 Pro?

[UCForce]

I don’t think so. It’s toward to PS4 Slim and the standard PS4.

[ShadowWolf712]

If Epic is including exclusive content for the PS4 version, I wonder if this has anything to do with the account locking issue. If it is, you'd think the other two companies would have to know this is wy, to say nothing of Epic themselves...

[WelkinCole]

Fact is PS4 is a huge factor why FN exploded and become more popular that PUG. Epic owes Sony a lot considering that it's also not behind a paywall

[MetroidFREAK21]

Sony... what are you doing? You plan to release a bundle of a F2P game, when you lock people's accounts to a game you do not even own to one platform... Talk about the ultimate F you

[fungusar]

On Playstation this game should be called fartnite
