- — In-Game Description
Playground was a mode in Fortnite: Battle Royale. It loaded players into the Athena island with some adjusted settings.
Players can battle and build with an extended period of time (4 hours) to roam around the map, as well as increased resource generation by 10. All treasure chests and ammo crates will be spawned, so players can try dropping in different spots to scope out the loot. Friendly fire is on so they can scrimmage with their squad (up to three friends per match), with near-immediate respawns. In Chapter 2: Season 1, Playground was removed and replaced with Battle Lab
