Super-popular video game Fortnite is launching a new experience called, "March Through Time," in which players can go on what it's calling an "immersive journey" to see Martin Luther King Jr.s' 1963 "I Have a Dream" speech. It takes place in a re-imagined Washington, D.C., reportedly called "D.C. 63," and appears to mimic the Lincoln Memorial, where King gave the famous speech. A trailer from PlayStation seems to show players will be able to attend the speech, hold signs and clap along as a video recording of the speech plays.USA Todayreports the experience also includes quotes and teachings, as well as quests to be done with other players. There was some criticism on social media, with some blasting King being likened to a video game character. However, it was done with the support of King's estate.
