"Fortnite Battle Royale" has also become a cultural online phenomenon, with several celebrities reporting they play the game, and athletes using "Fortnite" emotes as victory celebrations. A notable streaming event in March 2018, with streamer Ninja playing "Fortnite Battle Royale" alongside Drake, Travis Scott, Kim DotCom, and Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster, broke viewership records for Twitch to date, and led to Epic arranging a "Fortnite Battle Royale" pro–am with 50 pairs of streamers and professional players matched with celebrities at the Electronic Entertainment Expo 2018 in June 2018. Epic Games is working to develop organized eSports competitions around "Fortnite Battle Royale", including a "Fortnite" World Cup tournament in 2019.

In September 2018, Sony had altered its position on cross-platform play following the release of "Fortnite Battle Royale" for the Switch, where the lack of cross-platform play had been a point of significant criticism. Sony allowed "Fortnite" to be cross-platform play compatible with all platforms and stated they would review other games on a case-by-case basis. By January 2019, Psyonix announced that Sony has granted the same for "Rocket League", allowing cross-platform play between PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Switch and PC versions. Psyonix released a beta client with full cross-platform play features.
