Fortnite was launched in 2017 with a limited selection of characters and outfit options. There have been thousands upon thousands of outfits added to Fortnite since then. This leads many to ask: Who were the original characters?
Although most players think that the answer is “the defaults”, this is only partially true. Over the years, there have been many new defaults to Fortnite. We must go back to Chapter 1 of Fortnite Season 1 to see the original outfits that were made available at the time Battle Royale was launched.
