New Fortnite Battle Royale Mode Available Now For A Limited Time

A new game mode has been announced for Fortnite Battle Royale, and it's available now. The mode was one of the many surprises unveiled during tonight's Game Awards, where developer Epic debuted its first trailer.

The mode is called 50 Vs. 50, but it will only be available in the game for a limited time. As its name implies, two teams of 50 players are pit against each other in a giant battle, with the last team standing declared the winner. You can take a look at its trailer below.

50 Vs. 50 mode will only be available to play through Sunday, December 10. Epic says that it has "additional unique game modes and content planned for the future."

Battle Royale is Fortnite's free, PUBG-style survival mode. It's available for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. Epic recently rolled out a new update for the mode that introduced smoke grenades, two new leaderboards, and Xbox One X support. The update also added new items and content to Fortnite's Save the World mode.
