Struggling with his performance in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4, Ninja quits Fortnite officially, leaving the game and turning his attention to Call of Duty.

Ninja is one of the most popular Fortnite streamer in the world. He started his journey in 2017 when Fortnite launched. He dabbled in various games, but remained loyal to Fortnite. Over the period of a few years, the famous streamer has criticized many games heavily. This time Fortnite has crossed his path, and he is done with it.

The recent season of Fortnite has been a tough one for many players, but none more so than Ninja. Known for his incredible skills and strategic gameplay, Ninja has found himself struggling to keep up with the evolving meta of the game. His frustration came to a head during a recent stream, where he lost a match to what he called a “bot,” leading to a rare and heated outburst. “I’m done with this,” he yelled, clearly fed up with the current state of Fortnite.
