Comment on Epic Games Pins ‘Fortnite’ Comeback on Disney Partnership (a Disney extraction shooter)

Unreal Tournament is an arena first-person shooter, with head-to-head multiplayer deathmatches being the primary focus of the game.
Those are two terrible examples to use for single player games.
My guess is what they really meant was ‘single-purchase’.

My guess, and it’s a personal pet peeve of mine, is that it’s the term that people use to refer to anything that isn’t live service. In this case in particular, it’s a perfect example of how stupid it is for that to be the term we use for that. While both can be played with only one player (so can Fortnite), they were both marketed as games that you would be playing primarily multiplayer.
