Epic Games has recently launched the Fortnite Web Shop, creating another way for players to see and buy Fortnite stuff from the Item Shop. This Web Shop works similarly to how the in-game Item Shop works in Fortnite. Players can also purchase items by applying Support-A-Creator codes, just like they can in the game on their console or PC. This is beneficial for players who like to keep track of what’s available in the shop, especially when there’s a specific item that they are waiting to arrive in the shop, without having to hop onto Fortnite. https://twitter.com/FortniteGame/status/1825551121995174288 The Fortnite Web Shop refreshes every day at 5:00 p.m. PT. Each time, it may introduce new items, and some might go out of rotation. At the time of writing, the shop has skins for Marvel’s Hulk, Hela, Deadpool, Wolverine, and Guardians of the Galaxy. There are also John Wick, Ninja, Lewis Hamilton, Raiden, and Loserfit outfits and bundles that you can pick up. If you wish to apply a creator code to support your favorite content creators, you can click the star badge on the top-right of the Fortnite Web Shop and add the respective code before you make your purchase. Epic Games' decision reflects their ongoing efforts to create independent avenues to engage with Fortnite. This also means that players now have the option to purchase in-game items without relying on stores from the likes of Apple or Google, forgoing the platform fee along the way. Epic Games battled both Apple and Google to prove that both companies hold a monopoly over the app market in their respective stores. While Epic Games lost its case against Apple, they were victorious over Google, which was found guilty of holding a monopoly over the Android app market.
