Although a significant portion of Fortnite revolves around base building and putting together squads of defensive Survivors, the heart of of the game is all about mowing down waves of zombies with your Hero!
Several different classes of Hero are available to try out (so long as you unlock them through card drops), with different focuses on ranged combat, tanky melee fighters, or even improving the effectiveness of your traps and fortifications.

Note: Because Fortnite is currently in Early Access Beta and will remain so until 2018, the info below is very much subject to change at any time as tweaks are made! Some of the skill names and effects have already been changed from previous editions before Founder level backers were brought onto Closed Beta.
Fortnite Class Differences
Many different characters can be unlocked through random card drops within the same class, and each has a different skill loadout beyond the class' base skills. For instance, two characters can be the Soldier class, but one might be a Rescue Trooper and another could be a Survivalist. Some rare and legendary characters will have access to additional skills from other sub-classes.
You can also find different star versions of the same character (1-star to 4-star) with upgraded stats and extra starting skills. For another level of complexity, each character can be leveled independently (unlocking more skills down the list for each class), and when you reach a certain experience threshold, each character can then be evolved using certain items and skills.
For instance, the basic Rescue Trooper Ramirez, a Soldier-class character, can be evolved when reaching 1,500 EXP if you have 10 Pure Drops of Rain (found randomly through Llamas and completing quests) and a Training Manual. Evolution grants additional boosts to your character and your team beyond your normal skills.
Any class can use any gun or melee weapon in the game, so long as you've found the weapon randomly through a card drop or discovered the schematic through card drops and crafted it during a quest.
So what's the difference between the classes? Some classes will deal more or less damage with certain weapons or have slightly different run and sprint speeds (which can make a difference in map exploration when there's a bonus objective involving time) -- and they all have vastly different skills.
Below we've outlined all the class and sub-class skills currently available at this stage of the Fortnite Beta.
