After weeks of leaks, the internet’s worst kept secret, Fortnite on the Nintendo Switch, appears to be a reality. Twitter user @SimonMKWii, aka Simon Aarons, used their datamining tools to go through the files on the Switch eShop, finding the store page for Fortnite.

Interestingly, the game is around 2GB, which may indicate earlier rumors that it is coming to Switch with just the Battle Royale mode initially. Whether the PvE Save the World mode is coming is not yet known.
The game will most likely get an official announcement during Nintendo’s E3 presentation tomorrow at 9AM PT, so stick to Nintendo Wire for up to the minute updates.
