Fortnite community outraged by Sony's PS4 lockout

From CNET: Nintendo Switch owners can finally play Fortnite, but neither they nor Playstation 4 players were warned that bringing their account from one platform to the other would result in a lockout. And that's sparked outrage across the gigantic Fortnite community.

For those who haven't heard about the issue or run into it themselves, it's simple. Fornite is available on numerous platforms, from the PS4 to Switch, PC, Xbox One and iOS.

Fans and gaming critics have taken to Twitter, Reddit and beyond to voice their outrage, and demand a fix.
