The Game on Everyone’s Minds

Published on April 13, 2018 in Features by Hampton Henderson

With 45 million players worldwide, “Fortnite” has become the most popular video game on the market.

The one aspect that people have mainly been talking about is the lack of a headphone jack. What Apple wants the customers to do is buy the new “air pods,” which are Bluetooth headphones that come at a costly price.
