Something that Fortnite players will immediately recognize has appeared in Central Park. Why is it protected?
Information about the cube that appeared in Central Park is spreading around the world of Fortnite.
Epic very often brought Fortnite into reality, be it during the action with a burger, bus, or various types of posters, banners, announcements. Therefore, the first thought that came to the minds of people after seeing the cube in the middle of the park was Fortnite.
It’s hard not to get the impression that this is some kind of reference. Especially that a golden cube appeared in Fortnite.
The golden cube is something else entirely
$ 11.7 million was paid for the cube which stands in Central Park. It is actually made of gold and has a special protection of its own. People are taking photos with it, and the whole action is a promotion of one of the crypto-related projects.
Like it or not, people see it more as a reference to Fortnite. There were even theories about the return of the cubes online – the company had to explain the whole situation, saying that this was not the case. It’s kind of funny that so much money was spent on it, security was hired and the whole campaign was made so that people would finally talk about it in the context of Fortnite.
