From all indications, this game comes with minimum specs and requirements that are very easy to meet. Most new PCs have a minimum of Core i3 running at 2.4GHz, and you should be able to enjoy your games with no freezing whatsoever as long as you can manage to beat that minimum. Here is an article I wrote on some cheap gaming laptops that meet that requirement.
If for any reason you experience issues relating to in-game lost frames that happen as a result of a need to load too many structures and particles, you should be able to make do with turning down some graphics settings that are using up the CPU.
If what you have is a gaming PC, then you might need to get up to Intel Core i5, and a graphics card with a minimum rating that’s similar to or higher than NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660. One of the best features of Fortnite is that the map will get smaller and will close in at a point, so the game doesn’t have to process as many things at a time.
I’d also recommend that to get the best gaming experience from both the gameplay and the PC, Android, or iOS phone you’re using, work to get a very stable internet connection. This will give you so much extra free performance space on your devices while helping you enjoy your gameplay seamlessly.
