Fortnite: All you need to know
We are aware that quite a few of our children and young people are taking part in the online game called Fortnight.
There are many concerns about this game and how it can be used to target children. It is available on Xbox One, PS4, PC, Mac, iOS and Android. The online multiplayer game has become a worldwide phenomenon since it launched a free ‘Battle Royale’ mode that allows up to 100 players to fight it out ‘Hunger Games’ style until there’s just one person left.
The NSPCC, amongst other agencies are very concerned about this game and I would urge you to be very aware of what is happening should your son or daughter play it.
