More On: Fortnite E3 2018

Nintendo surprised their E3 audience on Tuesday by announcing that Fortnite Battle Royale was available immediately for Switch. Now HyperX is promoting their Cloud Stinger headset as the best affordable audio solution to playing Fortnite on the console.

The Cloud Stinger retails for $50, which is a pretty good deal, and features memory foam padding and 50mm directional drivers for optimal sound output. It sounds like a perfectly good headset, but until Nintendo figures out their smartphone-app tangled mess, voice chat on Switch is unfortunately still going to be a headache.
