Fortnite launches Ballistic mode to attract casual gamers to tactical shooters

Fortnite has launched a new game mode called Ballistic, which combines elements of Counter-Strike with Fortnite's unique style. This 5v5 mode features bomb-planting mechanics and a familiar three-lane map, aiming to attract casual gamers to tactical shooters. Ballistic allows players to buy weapons and equipment with in-game credits, similar to Counter-Strike. However, it lacks some strategic communication tools, which may affect gameplay. The mode simplifies weapon mechanics, making it more accessible for new players. This update is part of Fortnite's version 33.10, which also includes new skins and a roleplay experience. Ballistic may serve as an entry point for casual gamers into competitive tactical shooters.
