Fortnite's feverishly anticipated Playground mode has been pulled from the game less than two hours after it launched online. Players reported problems with the new mode within minutes of its launch, forcing Fortnite to investigate. Unable to resolve the issues fast enough, developer Epic Games shutdown Playground at 11:49 UTC. The new mode, which is designed to enable Fortnite players to practice their skills in the battle royale-style survival shooter, has yet to re-launch.
