Fortnite players who used bot lobbies to advance in competitive game modes have been disciplined, and cheaters will face similar repercussions going forward. Fans may simply have fun in-game by using the dozens of foolish cosmetics and oddball goods available in Fortnite, whether it's creating amusing costume combinations or using a Shockwave Grenade to make fun of their opponent and friends.

Even though Fortnite has a humorous side, it also has a serious, more intimidating side known as Fortnite competitive. Professional gamers began playing and streaming the game as soon as it came out, and as time passed and its popularity increased, more people became interested, which resulted in the development of a competitive scene. Initially, streamers and professional players organized their private tournaments, but Epic Games began to take things more seriously and created official competitions.

There is now a daily competition under the in-game Compete tab, a Ranked playlist that is always live, and an annual Fortnite global championship. In Fortnite Ranked, players are assigned a rank according to their skill level when they play their first game. A higher ranking in Fortnite offers more than just bragging rights; top players are the only ones eligible to compete in some events.

Epic Games is now targeting cheaters 

Many players are cheating to win in Fortnite Ranked because high ranks get access to exclusive tournaments and promotions. A lot of participants end up doing everything they can do to increase their chances of winning the game which includes cheating because the Cash Cups event requires competitors to have advanced in ranking.

Epic Games is now targeting cheaters in Ranked mode with significant vigor. Since the AI doesn't have a very challenging setting, a bot lobby makes it much simpler to obtain a Victory Royale in Fortnite, but it doesn't guarantee one because players can still be eliminated by one of the bots.
