Fortnite OG is said to have secretly added bots

SBMM now on the upper floor:According to leakers and data miners, bots have been added to the Fortnite OG mode. The number of bots apparently determines how good you are at the game. The more bots, the less skill you have to prove. According to reports, there can be up to 90 bots in a lobby - with 100 players that would be 90%.
