What just happened? Disney is making its largest-ever investment in the gaming space by taking a $1.5 billion equity stake in Epic Games. The deal will also see the creation of an "expansive and open games and entertainment universe" that will interoperate with Fortnite. Disney explained that consumers will be able to play, watch, shop and engage with content, characters, and stories from Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars, Avatar, and more.
Fortnite's latest hotfix brings Midseason Drops and the Guardian Shield, which can be used to protect your squad from incoming attacks while on the move or in a set position. Also, Epic's CEO recently teased that Fortnite may be coming back to iOS.
