In other news… Epic Games company value set to overtake that of Apple’s… ok that’s a bit too hyperbolic but it’s crazy the amount of money they are making from this game and that’s greatly due to the fact that Fortnite is available on pretty much any device.

Haha, yeah. Apparently tencent (The company that Naspers got lucky with) has some sort of stake in Fortnite too.

Tencent owns 40% of Epic Games.
