Web site HushHush, the self-styled “World’s Leading Luxury Marketplace and VIP Concierge Service,” has received a request from an anonymous person to organize a real-life Fortnite battle royale on a private island.
Welcome to 2019.
We’re looking for someone who can help design the arena for a 100-person battle royale inspired event. With a £1,500 day rate and an expected six-week project duration, we’re expecting the competition to be fierce for the £45,000 contract!
We were approached by one of our customers, who was on the lookout for a private island, for help in setting up the championship. We will also be handling registrations for the event when the time comes. Contestants will be provided with Airsoft guns, ammo and touch-sensitive body armour for a three-day event. The ‘last person standing’ will win a £100,000 jackpot. As it is currently planned, the event is intended to last three days, with 12 hours of competition each day. Competitors will then camp for the night. Food, camping gear and all the necessary equipment will be provided.
Oh, thank God, they’re not using real guns… then again… no, that would be wrong.
Aaron Harpin, HushHush.com founder, said about the possible event, “Battle royale games have become incredibly popular over the last few years ago and our customer is a huge fan who wants to make the game a reality in the safest way possible. If the championship is a success this year, it’s something he wants to make an annual event moving forward, which is very exciting!”
“If you’re a fan of last-person-standing movies and games, it’ll be a great opportunity to have a once in a lifetime experience and earn a significant amount of money. However, to get there, our concierge team needs some help to make it a reality. The first thing we need is a talented gamemaker to help us make the event as realistic as possible.”
FYI… £1,500 = $1,958. £45,000 = $58,739.85. £100,000 = $130,533.
Cost of playing real-life Fortnite on a private island for three days straight? Priceless.
Maybe this is the real reason Prince Harry wants “irresponsible” Fortnite to be banned.
