In keeping with its off-kilter, creative theme Fortnite’s
vehicles are similarly outlandish. Take, for example, the first vehicle Epic
Games added to the game, the trusty shopping cart. This masterful metallic
contraption comfortably sits two people; one in control of movement and the
other in charge of protection. The shopping carts aren’t invincible, though. If
you hit a landing too hard, that’s the end of your joy ride. Enemy players can
also shoot you down as you glide past.
Fortnite also recently deployed All-Terrain Karts (ATKs
across the map. These larger vehicles seat up to our players, so your entire
squad can travel as a group. You still need to stay vigilant, though, as the
ATK’s minimal body frame leaves you exposed to enemy combatants. Like most
other in-game objects. ATKs are destructible; an ax or gunfire can make quick
work of these vehicles.
But there are plenty of good reasons to risk getting behind the wheel. Both the shopping cart and the ATX are faster and more fun than sprinting to a destination. This increased traveling speed can come in handy whenever you need to escape danger, overtake the pace of the closing storm, or travel quickly between locales to collect resources between stages.
