Fortnite Battle Royale: Score Royale LTM is coming soon
The developers at Epic Games never stop finding new ways to keep Fortnite players entertained. Their most recent LTM proves that.
Perhaps in an attempt to level the playing field for all opponents, it would seem that Epic Games has a new Fortnite limited time game mode (LTM) in the works that rewards players for looting and foraging as well as eliminating other players.
Score Royale, as we’re currently calling it, will be a new Fortnite LTM in which searching for loot and foraging can actually win you a match. Dataminers @TwoEpicBuddies on Twitter have discovered the game mode.
Score Royale is coming as a gamemode! Here is a description directly from the game files. Seems like it will be a squads mode and you win by looting stuff! Also the first time in a Battle Royale where you can win without being the last man standing. pic.twitter.com/AMeuDUSJrd

We’ve been seeing a bunch of old game modes returning with slight tweaks lately, so it is nice to have a completely brand new LTM to look forward to. Fortnite players who aren’t quite as good at eliminating opponents are now given a chance to win as well.
From the looks of it, there will be a “point threshold” that players have to reach. Assuming it is a race to the point total, the possible strategies for this game will be endless. It’s also worth noting that rare loot like Llamas or supply drops will count for more points (as discovered by @TwoEpicBuddies).

This LTM sounds like it will be both very interesting and a lot of fun. It’s always nice to mix in something different every dozen games or so and having a brand new game mode we haven’t tried yet will be great.
Despite this, many fans are still awaiting the highly anticipated “playground mode” that has been teased recently. In the playground mode LTM, there will be more loot, more llamas, friendly fire and respawns. This will serve as a practice mode for anyone who wants to work on building or aiming without consequence.
Epic has done a good job of creating and reviving game modes that serve all types of players. Like the rest of them, Score Royale will most likely be a fun alternative game mode added to the list of great LTMs. We can’t wait to try it out.
