This mode has extra loot and building disabled, a storm that is more lethal, and a shorter match length than the standard Battle Royale modes. Each team drops from their own Battle Bus. Get in and help your team to victory!"
Fans might recall the Big Battle mode being vaguely similar to the Team Rumble creative mode which is currently available to play in Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 3.
