'Samsung Island' Spawns in 'Fortnite,' A New Map to Enjoy

Samsung Latin America announced its latest feature available for all, but it is not for smartphones and another tech from the company, but a Samsung-themed island in "Fortnite." On this island, people may jump in and experience the new world filled with Samsung's technology, featuring its latest smartphone release, the Galaxy S23.

"This is one of the coolest resources in the digital universe, the Metaverse and the gameplay of Fortnite, specifically; they allow the use of a transmedia language in which we connect, with great speed, messages, products and people, with a high degree of immersion," says Arthur Wong, Marketing Director of Samsung Latin America.

Additionally, there is the "Fun Game Quest" feature where players may look for a hidden Galaxy S23 device on the island, and keep it until the end of the round for prizes.

A Samsung Virtual Showroom also showcases many of the company's technology for gamers to check out.

'Fortnite' and Epic Games' Many Collaborations

Epic Games previously collaborated with Samsung to deliver its "Smart City" on "Fortnite" to deliver an action-packed experience in a game of tag, as well as exploring a new island on the game. It borders on its efforts to build a metaverse based on the famous battle royale game, centering on a new digital experience for all.

Apart from collaborations with specific pop culture presences to bring their characters as skins to the game, Epic brings the overall design and maps of "Fortnite" to feature famous iterations in the online world. Among the most iconic is the "Fortnite x BTS" collab which featured their hit song "Dynamite's" setting as a map in the game.

There are claims that "Fortnite" has a significant potential to be Epic Games' basis for its planned metaverse, and it is because of the open world-like experience of the RPG shooter game. This latest island from Samsung is yet again another digital experience for the fans, featuring "Fortnite's" platform and its S23 smartphone.
