Fortnite s Next Big Event Is a Film Festival
✖
Fortnite is planning another nontraditional event soon where it’ll again host different films inside of the battle royale game’s Party Royale mode. Instead of hosting a Christopher Nolan film or premiering a trailer for an upcoming movie, however, Epic Games has instead invited players to the “Short Nite” festival where players will get to watch 12 different animated short films. The event starts on February 20th at 2 p.m. ET and will last for around 30 minutes.
Nothing is required on the part of the players to hop into the Short Nite event other than getting in the correct Party Royale playlist, and if you miss the first showtime, you can catch it afterwards while it repeats for the next 24 hours. A preview of some of the animated films that’ll be featured during the event can be seen in the trailer below that was released alongside the announcement.
