The "Fortnite" 14 Days of Summer Event Kicks Off Today

We hope you have your sunscreen ready and your weapons loaded, as Fortnite will be kicking off their "14 Days Of Summer" event today. The devs released an entire laundry list of what will be happening during the event, some of which we've posted for you here. But basically, you're going to have activities almost every day to keep you busy and earn a ton of rewards in the game. Oh, and there will probably be skins and other stuff to buy, but that's only there if you want to spend the cash. Best of luck to everyone participating in Fortnite these next two weeks.
