How To Play As Godzilla In Fortnite

How To Play As Godzilla In Fortnite https://ift.tt/V0rndRA Fortnite 's collaboration with the Legendary Pictures' MonsterVerse has brought Godzilla and King Kong skins to Fortnite, but this event isn't just about cosmetics--it's also adding the chance that one player each round of battle royale will get to play as Godzilla. And by "play as Godzilla," I mean you will be taller than the tallest building in Seaport City, and will have the ability to crush every building and build on the map by stepping on it or firing off Godzilla's laser breath. It's similar to how the playable Doctor Doom worked during Chapter 5 Season 4, except you'll be even taller than the giant Doom was. But the way this works can be a little bit confusing the first few times you encounter it--while there have been past Fortnite events that were in a similar vein to this Godzilla event, the way it actually functions is all new.

But the reasons why it's so different from its cartridge-based brothers are themselves fascinating. In many ways--and quite fittingly, given its time-travel theme--Sonic CD feels like the start of a different evolutionary path the Sonic series could have taken into the future, but didn't.

After the first Sonic the Hedgehog became a runaway success, Sega immediately went to work on follow-up games. Two of Sonic's primary development staff, Yuji Naka and Hirokazu Yasuhara, joined future PlayStation console architect Mark Cerny at Sega Technical Institute with a few other Japanese staff in the US to create Sonic the Hedgehog 2--a very unusual America/Japan co-production for its time. Meanwhile, other original Sonic Team members stayed back home in Japan to plan a Sonic game for the fledgling Mega-CD (Sega CD in western markets) add-on. The system was floundering in its home market but looked likely to do significantly better abroad, much in the same way the Mega Drive (aka the Genesis) had. With Nintendo poised to release its own CD system add-on, having a show-stopper like Sonic on its CD platform would be a tremendous boon in what looked to be the upcoming CD-ROM wars. (Which never happened, but hindsight is 20/20.)
