Fortnite is effectively three games; each of the three supermodes have their own unique rules and mechanics:
Save the World: A super-natural storm has caused 98% of the world's population to disappear, with Zombie-like monsters called Husks appearing all over the place where the storm hits. As one of the few survivors, you have found a robot-crewed station with the power and technology to fight the storm. With their help, maybe you can figure out how to stop the storm and restore the world. To do that, you need to gather Heroes and Survivors, mine or scavenge materials, and build a mighty fortress from which to launch your operations.
Battle Royale: Released in September of 2017, this is a 100-person free-for-all where the players are parachuted onto an island and battle each other for supremacy, with the same construction system from Save the World. Players can either fight solo in an every-player-for-themselves match, or get into Duos (2-person teams) or Squads (4-person teams) and fight against other same-sized teams. Occasionally, there are special limited-time modes, including 50v50 where players are split into two teams of 50, and LTMs where a specific set of weapons can be used (only gold, explosives, snipers only, etc.).
Creative: Released in December of 2018, this is a sand-box using Battle Royale's gameplay. The player constructs their own island by placing and editing previous and new assets, and one can invite up to fifteen other players to play.
