Fortnite is getting a new game mode on December 11, 2024: “Ballistic”. The new mode is reminiscent of other big shooters like Counter-Strike.
What kind of game mode is this? Ballistic is a 5v5 mode without building that you play from a first-person perspective. One of the two teams has to plant a bomb and the other team has to defend the point. The match ends when the bomb explodes successfully or one of the two teams is completely eliminated.
A total of 12 rounds are played, whoever wins 7 of them wins the entire match. For every kill you get points that you can spend before the next round on new weapons or special gadgets that you can then use in battle.
When will Ballistic be released? The new Ballistic mode will be released in early access on December 11, 2024.
What content is available? A map called “Skyline 10” will be available for release. According to the developer, more maps will follow quickly.
You can also use all skins and content from your wardrobe that you have unlocked so far in the game mode.
You can find more information about the game on the official website, where the new mode has been presented in detail.

Fortnite is increasingly becoming a gaming hub
Epic has been following this path for a long time and is expanding Fortnite more and more broadly. After being “just” a shooter for years, a LEGO mode, a racing game and a music mode have been added in the last few months. The next mode is now added with the tactical shooter.
Some players already believe that Epic wants to become an alternative to Roblox. Roblox is above all a large collection of smaller and larger games.
How do the players react? Many players on Reddit.com are already saying that they are looking forward to the new game mode. After LEGO and Racing, it was actually only a matter of time before there was a tactical shooter mode.
The first reactions are at least positive and many are excited about the new game mode.
In addition to the new game mode, the new season in Fornite started on December 1, 2024 with a new map, new weapons and new skins. You can find all information about the new season directly on MeinMMO: Fortnite: Patch Notes for Chapter 6 – All new features of Update 33.00
