The World Health Organization (WHO) just included “gaming disorder” as a new mental health condition, listing it is its 11th edition of the International Classification of Diseases. My first reaction was, oh, good, now I have a good excuse to write about Fortnite.

A year ago I hadn’t even heard of Fortnite. That’s no surprise, because few had; it wasn’t officially released until July 2017, and even then the free, most popular version — Fortnite Battle Royale — wasn’t released until last September. It was an immediate sensation, with over a million players within the first month. It has been smashing numbers ever since.
