Brand KPI profile

While Fortnite is well-known, other brand KPIs are spray and pray

Fortnite is one of the most well-known video game franchises in the United States.

Around 28 percent of video game franchise users had seen Fortnite on social media and in advertising over the past 3 months.

Generations

Fortnite has a precision audience aimbot for Gen Z

Fortnite rarely speaks to Baby Boomers. According to our survey, just 51 percent of video game franchise users born between 1946 – 1964 recognize Fortnite, and only around 15 percent have played the video game over the past 2 years. Meanwhile, around 39 percent of Gen Z respondents had played Fortnite, and 25 percent of Millennial franchise gamers had noticed the franchise on social media or in advertising during the past 3 months before our survey.

Life values

Fortnite users value success more than non-users

Let’s look at what matters to Fortnite gamers in their lives, apart from Fortnite. As can be seen, Fortnite players value success (53 %) more than non-players (37 %) of the video game franchise. Both audiences put equal emphasis on safety and security, but an honest and respectable life is more important to non-Fortnite-players.
