Fortnite Parody Featured on Last Weekend’s SNL With Adam Driver
Adam Driver returned to host Saturday Night Live over the weekend, which saw Fortnite bleed over into the mainstream in a live-action parody.
Driver's character, WillamMcTavish1972, joins Pete Davidson's Splodeboy and Kyle Mooney's Doomsnake in Battle Royale, with the sole aim of honing his Fortnite skills to be better than his son's stepdad.
The gameplay portion of the skit is live-action, with the characters being played by Heidi Gardner, Chris Redd, and Mikey Day. Day spends most of his time running into a wall as Mr. McTavish struggles to get to grips with the game's basic controls.

The second gameplay trailer for Red Dead Redemption 2 has released from Rockstar Games and shows a deeper look into the open world.
New footage shows the ability to rob a train, hold up a store, or burgle a house. First-person mode is also shown for the first time in the game.
The Dead Eye system is said to have been expanded and will progress in stages. It will allow you to slow down time with your shot, and see critical and fatal points of your enemies.
Arthur is shown being tracked down by bounty hunters, who will come back in Red Dead Redemption 2 if you have a price on your head.
The trailer shows further customization on what you can wear, ride, eat, and how to present yourself. You have the choice of shaving and bathing – or not. The customization choices you can make appear to be unlimited.
