Fortnite is absolutely wild. I’m standing in Spawn Island as Naruto, waiting to begin my first proper Battle Royale session. Accompanied by my sibling who’s using the Kakashi Hatake skin to complement mine, I take a moment to soak in the absurdity that surrounds me. Another player is running around with a giant hammer as Goku from Dragon Ball Z, while Daryl from The Walking Dead stands a short distance away. Then, as I parachute down from the Battle Bus and pick up some weapons, I see Naruto on my screen wielding a rifle. In all honesty, I can’t believe this is actually happening – it’s like I’m in some weird fever dream and I know I’m far from alone in thinking that.
