Fortnite isn’t as popular as it once was. This is a big problem for Epic Games, and was cited as one of the main reasons for the layoffs of 1,000+ Epic employees on Tuesday. To further cut costs, Epic is also removing three lesser-played game modes from Fortnite.
Fortnite itself will feel some of the impact from these changes, too, as it's now been confirmed that several modes are being shut down. Fortnite Ballistic, Fortnite Festival Battle Stage, and Rocket Racing are all getting the boot.
