Fortnite UPDATE - When is Save The World free? Epic Games gives PS4, Xbox One latest
Fortnite - When is Save The World free on PS4, Xbox One and PCs?
Fortnite has been out for less than a year, but has already developed a huge following - with its popularity skyrocketing since the free Battle Royale mode launched.
Fortnite launched as a paid for title, but this was only for early access - with Epic Games planning to release the entire game for free at a later date.
But when is Fortnite Save The World joining Battle Royale and becoming free to download on PS4, Xbox One and PCs?
Epic Games had previously said that Fortnite Save The World would become free to download in 2018.
And speaking to Express. co. uk, Eric Williamson, Fortnite’s Lead Systems Designer, said that’s still the plan.
He said: “We’re still looking at a 2018 free release for ‘Save the World.’ Epic tried to be really generous with the content in Early Access packs, and there have been events and items that exclusive to this Early Access period already!
“We appreciate everyone who’s played and supported the game so far, and our philosophy is to do everything we can to show that to our players.”
For those who have bought Fortnite in early access, they will have plenty of events to look forward to in the coming weeks.
On Friday, the official Fortnite Twitter account posted an updated timeline for Save The World.

And the post revealed that Epic Games have TWO exciting new seasonal events in the pipelines for Fortnite Save The World.
These events are a Valentine’s Day event, heading to Fortnite on February 14, and a Spring It On event later this month.
The upcoming Valentine’s event will bring with it Valentine’s themed Heroes and a Cupid Crossbow.
It will also boast a special Valentine’s questline called ‘A Love Story’.
While the Spring It On Event, which launches on February 21, will bring with it the Spring It On questline as well as new event store items.
In the post on the Fortnite Reddit page, Epic Games said: “Last week we released a state of development for Save the World sharing the features we are currently working on and when we hope to land them!
“Due to our internal concerns regarding the stability of our v.2.5.0 update the Valentine’s and Spring it On events will be delayed a week. That means we won’t be landing the dates stated in our State of Development v1.
“We will be extending the current storm event in the interim in our 2.4.X update next week. (Seasonal Gold Reset will happen in v.2.5.0)
“We want you to be able to play the game and feel this is the best bet for getting a stable patch out to you!”

The comments were off the back off the game’s first ever seasonal event, the Halloween themed Fortnitemares, and then the later Christmas event.
Williamson said: “Our players loved the Fortnitemares event and holiday event, and it was a ton of fun for us to make. The Pumpkin Launcher was so hilarious and just fit the game really well.
