Looks like Fortnite China is shutting down

The limited run of Fortnite in China is ending in November, according to the official Chinese site. Epic’s smash hit is a very different game in China, as it’s not only free to play but has some mechanical and gameplay differences, and premium currency is unlocked by playing rather than with real money. 

It’s not clear how successful Fortnite was in China, but it’s over now: Nobody will be able to register and download the game after November 1st, and the servers will shut down. Fortnite’s availability was billed as a test, and is referenced as such in the shutdown announcement.
