FORTNITE on Nintendo Switch Gets Visual Boost; Alli Arrives with Fortnite Crew

Tomorrow, March 31, at approximately 5 p.m. PT, active Fortnite Crew members will receive a Crew Pack featuring the Alli Outfit, the Squee Back Bling, the picked clean Skellyfish Pickaxe, the paw-plentiful Cat’s Paw Wrap and the Catwalk Loading Screen. The cat-like Alli is Lynx’s once-estranged sister who brings her own sense of feline fashion to the game, so suit up for some hair-raising hijinks.
 
Plus, beginning today, a new update will allow for improved visual performance and a consistent framerate on Nintendo Switch. When playing Fortnite in handheld mode you can now enjoy a 1140×660 resolution, and when playing in TV mode you can expect a 1560×880 resolution. As a bonus, the game now takes up 140MB less storage space on Nintendo Switch. Getting a Victory Royale has never felt better on Nintendo Switch!

And finally, you can squad up and drop in with the recently announced Nintendo Switch Joy-Con Fortnite Fleet Force Bundle. The Joy-Con Fortnite Fleet Force Bundle includes a uniquely designed blue Joy-Con (L) and a yellow Joy-Con (R) emblazoned with Fortnite banana imagery. It also includes 500 V-Bucks and a download code for an in-game Glider and Pickaxe. The Nintendo Switch Joy-Con Fortnite Fleet Force Bundle will be launching June 4.
