Fortnite is nothing short of a phenomenon. The battle royale game has taken the world by storm just months after it arrived on the scene as a competitor to the seemingly untouchable PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, and since then it has evolved into something the industry simply has never seen before. The game’s innovative and creative mechanics, tongue-in-cheek graphics and taunts, and sheer watchability has created a perfect storm that has since coalesced into gaming’s One Great Juggernaut.

Fortnite is no exception, and in its short lifespan it has accumulated some truly shocking records, both for in-game action and real-world impact.
