  • Celebrate the life and work of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. in a new interactive experience presented by TIME Studios. fn.gg/DC63
    March Through Time teleports players to D.C. 63, a reimagined Washington, DC. Built by ChaseJackman, GQuanoe, XWDFr, and YU7A, travel to the Lincoln Memorial and United States National Mall, where Dr. King gave his iconic 17 minute speech for Civil Rights.
    The experience extends with museum-inspired points of interest, and collaborative mini-game quests you complete with others. These activities progress players through the experience and bring to life important themes of Dr. King’s speech: we move forward when we work together.

      @@5headboi153 when you punch someone you most likely don't kill them either, and yet you should know that "nonviolence" doesn't mean only "don't kill" but "cause no violence". Violence is the very essence of Fortnite. This thing was a mistake, in my opinion. I have a lot of respect for MLK, but stuff should be taught in the proper places. If you put serious stuff in a game where most of the players are edgy teens who will suffer no consequence for their actions, what do you expect to happen then, exactly?
