Fortnite beginners tips: How Battle Royale works
There are so many little tips and tricks worth knowing for Fortnite that we've decided to compile a huge list on this page, splitting them up into the relevant categories so you can choose to skip ahead, or just browse at your leisure.

Before diving in though, it's worth talking a little about how to approach Fortnite matches in general, especially if you're a newcomer or just looking to learn the game a little better.

How Fortnite Battle Royale works

Battle Royale is a mode within Fortnite, a free-to-play shooter by Epic Games. It works similar to other Battle Royale games, with the aim to survive against up to 100 other players until the very end. It's not to get the most kills - though, chances are, you'll need to kill the other remaining survivor to win, with the current meta rewarding those who are aggressive and can build well. However, you can certainly win matches through avoidance and stealth too.

The flow of the game is as follows:

You start every match on the Battle Bus, which takes flight over the map. The direction changes every time, and though players are likely to drop into locations near where the route is, you can land anywhere if you pull your parachute straight away.
After a minute or two, a circle will appear on the map. After a few more minutes, a storm will slowly encroach across the map and close in on the circle, pushing players towards it. Though you can survive in the circle for a short period, you want to move there in good time.
A second circle will then appear within that circle, and the process repeats. The time it takes for the circle to close in gets quicker each time, and the potency of the storm increases, so moving inside the circle becomes more important. Of course, there's also less space to play in, so you're more likely to encounter other players.
At this point, there'll just be a handful of you, and you'll likely know where each other is. Forts will be erected, gunfire exchanged, careful trips to supply drops will be made. There can only be one winner. Best of luck!
There is, of course, far more to the above, which our tips below can help with.

Our Fortnite Battle Royale tips and tricks
Though Fortnite takes many notes from other Battle Royale games, there's plenty of nuance that begins to unfold the more experienced you get. Here are some of the many things that'll help you get better faster, whether you're a new or experienced player.

Fortnite tips for the start of a match

Where you decide to jump from the Battle Bus dictates the flow of the rest of the match. Want to go somewhere where the action is? Choose a named location either close to where the Battle Bus is flying over, or close to the centre of the map - think Retail Row, Dusty Divot or Tilted Towers. Want to land with maybe one or two people? Land away from the path of the bus, but in a named location.
If you're new to Fortnite, our recommendation is to land towards at the end of the Battle Bus route, and outside of a named location. The loot won't be as good as elsewhere, but you can slowly work your way towards named location, or the circle, while encountering fewer players.
