Just like Among Us, Fortnite Impostor mode sees a bunch of players play out their roles in an area. In this Fortnite mode, there are ten players, with eight agents and two imposters. Agents try to carry out routine assignments whilst the impostors try to kill and sabotage the agents.
Fans of the popular indie game expressed their disapproval of Fortnite’s shameless move.

Adriel Wallick, Innersloth’s lead Unity programmer, stated that this whole situation reminded her of how ‘tiny’ she is compared to bigger game developers.
“Everything in the world was already feeling insurmountable, so this was just another fun reminder of how tiny we all really are,” Wallick tweeted.
Worst part is we've been actively trying to collab with them.
