Escape Dead Island vs Fortnite Battle Royale
Escape Dead Island
Escape Dead Island is a Telltale-inspired, story-driven survival-mystery spin-off for the Dead Island franchise where the game's fans will be able to uncover the story behind the zombie outbreak through the eyes of documentary journalist Cliff Calo and fill in the gap between the first Dead Island game and the upcoming Dead Island sequel. Unlike the open world game that the franchise was defined by, this spin-off uses a comic-like style to bring the story to life. The virtual environment is also reactive to your every decision and as such, you might want to sometimes opt for a stealthier option rather than diving straight into combat, especially when the combat system - since it's not the main focus of the game and all - can be a bit boring.Escape Dead Island is very different from what you might be used to in Dead Island or Dead Island Riptide, and despite the heavy use of backtracking, the story and animation made everything worthwhile, especially if you're into this kind of stuff.
Fortnite Battle Royale
Fortnite Battle Royale is the latest game to hop into the rapidly growing battle royale scene. Developed by Epic Games, this game offers everything you've enjoyed in PUBG - the epic struggle to survive in an ever-shrinking map - but with a bit more style, albeit the more cartoonish sort. The crafting system in this game is in-depth enough to be entertaining, and of course, the map is vast enough at the beginning to give players a pretty nice (and safe) start before all the PvP starts to erupt across the map.Despite the apparent on-going conflict of sorts with PUBG, Fortnite Battle Royale is an oustanding game. It doesn't only has fantastic gameplay elements and graphics; it also has the added bonus of being free-to-play. Not to mention, as the game is cross-platform, it manages to fill in a void that PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG) has failed to quickly fill - to cater to the demand of a solid battle royale game on consoles.
