Zuckerberg may disagree with the fact that a game like Fortnite is not suitable for VR, according to the report. Meta acquired the developers of Population: One, an Oculus game that has a lot of running, shooting, building structures and basic parkour last year, according to the report. The game is even getting a creative option, which will make it more similar to Fortnite.
The report noted that Epic may find the prospect of Fortnite in VR of little benefit due to the fact that VR is yet to be widely adopted and expensive.
