<p><a href="https://bagogames.com/fortnite-early-access-impressions/"><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Fortnite</span></i></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">, which recently hit 45 million players with two million of those being concurrent, has added a new snipers-only mode. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Titled </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Sniper Shootout</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">, this limited-time engagement will see players dropped onto the map, which recently received a </span><a href="https://www.epicgames.com/fortnite/en-US/news/dev-deep-dive-map-update"><span style="font-weight: 400;">fresh coat of paint</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> as well as a number of new areas for players to shoot and loot, with only snipers and revolvers at their disposal&#8211;revolvers for those close range matchups. Of course, players will still have their trusty tool to take down trees, buildings and more, and they’ll still be able to build a humble fort or a vicious death trap.</span></p>
