Epic Games' highly popular game Fortnite is available on pretty much everything, so why not Nintendo Switch? Oh... Apparently it is.

Starting today at 10:00AM Pacific, Nintendo Switch owners can download the game from the eShop. As on all the other systems, the game will be available for free, and will include goodies unique to the Switch version of the game. The download should be quick, as it's approximately 2 gigs. So that means you'll be able to get in and start playing quickly.

Back in my day, Fortnite was a game about defending against the zombie hoard.
