Fortnite has perished. This development might seem unthinkable, but this is precisely what happened. The game’s whole map has disappeared, together with its social networks. This development has left users in shock.
So what exactly happens now?
If players go to the game, all they will see is a void of space. At the center of all this nothingness is a black hole. But amidst all these eeriness, gamers will be able to do something: shoot at a giant burger.
Fortnite News has tweeted to let players in on the secret mini-game concealed at the center of the black screen. And yes, this is the entire game. Or what remains of it. Epic Games surely knows how to pull surprises.
How can players access this hidden mini-game? They can do this by simply entering the famous Konami code. Once users do this, they will be able to proceed to the remaining playable part of Fortnite.
For those unfamiliar with the Konami code, here is how it works. All players have to do is press the following sequence: up, up, down left, and right. This sequence is followed by pressing B, A, Start, or Enter if a gamer is using a keyboard and mouse.
Players will then be led to the arcade type game, which will test their, well, shooting skills. But here is the catch. Users will be utilizing icons of franchises featured on Fortnite, which include Durr Burger and Pizza Pit.
For those excited up to play the game, pizza icons may not unleash the heroes in them. But at least, they will be able to take a break from their creature-slaying. All they have to do is focus on taking down those space burgers.
However, fans of classic arcade games will get a kick from playing this mini-game. It has a distinctly retro feel to it similar to what users experience in Galaga. When the game starts, burgers will be falling from the top and will have to be shot down using the pizza slice.
When the pizza blasts hit the burgers, they will burst into splats of ketchup and mustard. Fortnite players will then have to square off with the Durr Burger boss, which will be firing pineapple-like rockets. What is the price of beating him? A “vicdurry.”
After defeating the big boss, users can continue playing the game to get a higher score. However, they will not be crossing paths with any new opponent. This Fortnite mini-game, despite its simplicity, is lovable and can help fill the void until season 2 begins.
