Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 trailer: Absolute Doom, Marvel theme & new powers Epic GamesFortnite’s Chapter 5 Season 4 trailer has been revealed and it brings back Marvel heroes and villains back to the looped island with Dr. Doom causing all the destruction. During Fortnite’s mini-live event on August 10, players were shown footage of someone hacking the fuel pipeline running between the Redline Rig and Brutal Beachhead POIs. The pipeline overloaded as a consequence, resulting in a massive explosion that obliterated Redline Rig. But, what’s most interesting is the person responsible for the hack – Marvel villain Doctor Doom – as teased by the green hooded icon during the hack. Now with the Disney D23 event that was streamed live in Fortnite, Marvel Studios boss Kevin Feige revealed the full trailer for the next Fortnite season which is Marvel-themed and is called Absolute Doom. Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 full trailer Trailer breakdown The 1-minute 31-second trailer for the next Fortnite season revealed some key details about Chapter 5 Season 4. The trailer started with a new look of Dr. Doom, opening Pandora’s Box and unleashing the evils on the looped island. Soon, a Jonesy skin dressed as Captain America swings his shield and teams up with Cyclops’ X-Men and Peelverine skin to battle against the villains. On the other hand, Dr. Doom recruits all the villains including breaking out Mysterio from the RAFT prison. Then the heroes and villains clash against one another when the gameplay footage hits. A new Castle Castle POI, Latveria POI, and Raft POI are revealed to be added to the Fortnite map next season. A day after the trailer was released, Epic followed up with a further Chapter 5 Season 4 map tease in a post to their Twitter/X account. “Every place has a story. And every story is undiscovered,” they mysteriously stated alongside an image of the island covered by a green mist. However, this has barely revealed much as all the places where the new POIs will be placed have been covered by the mist. If you look very closely, you can see a vague outline of Castle Doom at the top right of the map, and other small parts through the faint parts of the mist. Over on TikTok on August 14, 2024, Marvel Entertainment shared four screenshots revealing points of interest for Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4. This includes the Fallen Fantastic Four sign and another screenshot of Castle Doom. Furthermore, special Marvel powers will make a comeback in the upcoming season as Captain America’s Shield, Black Panther’s Claws, Iron Man’s Repulsors, and War Machine’s Turrets can be seen obliterating villains in the trailer. Players will also get a new version of Dr. Doom’s powers and some new weapons including Stark Industries’ Energy Rifle, Dual SMGs, a new Sniper Rifle, a new Single-Hand Pistol, Silent Scar, Heavy AR, and a gold Scar. The trailer also showcases Season 4’s Battle Pass which includes War Machine, Peelverine, Emma Frost, Captain Jonesy, Mysterio, Shuri, and Dr. Doom. Those are all the trailers and teasers so far for Fortnite’s new season. While you’re waiting for Chapter 5 Season 4 to arrive, check out our dedicated guides for the rarest skins, best skins, how to get free skins, and how to level up fast in Fortnite.

Fortnite Chapter 5 Star Wars update slammed as players want “fun” of 2023 event back – Dexerto
Fortnite Chapter 5 Star Wars update slammed as players want “fun” of 2023 event back Epic GamesThe latest Star Wars update in Fortnite is being slammed by players who miss the fun the same event brought to them back in 2023. Fortnite and Star Wars have once again teamed up to create an in-game collab event for players. However, this time around, the event is primarily focused on the LEGO Fortnite mode, with new Rebel Adventure objectives, a new mini-pass, and more features, leaving Battle Royale in the dust. The Battle Royale island only has five Imperial Roadblocks, two Mythic weapons (the E-11 Blaster and the Wookie Bowcaster), and Darth Vader’s Lightsaber. Unlike Chapter 4 Season 2 in 2023, Chapter 5’s Star Wars event lacks lightsabers or force abilities. As a result, the community is critical of the update and wants the “fun” they had back in the 2023 event. Epic has segregated the latest crossover into three additional game modes: LEGO Fortnite, Rocket Racing, and Fortnite Festival, which contributes to the scarcity of material in the game’s core Battle Royale mode. Since players were expecting the return of lightsabers and force skills, they were disappointed when the 29.40 update didn’t include that feature. This caused them to compare it to last year’s Star Wars Day update, which included weapons and gear such as the Kinetic Blade and ODM Gear. On the shared subreddit post by a user, players conveyed their disappointment where one such player said, “Last year’s Star Wars event was so much better.” Some players think this year’s event “feels like a downgrade.” “The Force powers could be annoying to play against, but man, I’m missing them this year,” they continued. Although they like seeing Darth Vader and Chewbacca on the map, they feel that “bringing back the Padawan lightsabers would’ve been sick.” Another user added, “The force is not so strong this time around.” While players are criticizing the Star Wars update, they’re praising things on the LEGO Fortnite side as it received its first crossover update and a mini battle pass with new content.

Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 Absolute Doom full patch notes Marvel theme and three new POIs Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 brings back the Marvel-themed season and island with three new POIs added to the island. These POIs are iconic locations from Marvel Comics and feature all the latest content that is introduced with the season. The three new locations are Doomstadt, The Raft, and Castle Doom. They will replace Lavish Lair, Pleasant Piazza, and Classy Courts respectively. Dark shadows from Castle Doom loom over the Island, and its forge burns red as each metal clank rings ever closer to the completion of Doctor Doom’s impervious new armor. Doomstadt is a peaceful and prosperous village full of happy, productive citizens… under penalty of Doom. In a bid to recruit like-minded allies, Doctor Doom has summoned The Raft to the Island, a prison for supervillains and extraterrestrial threats. Doctor Doom’s henchmen have begun excavating the Island in search of artifacts. When downed, they can be persuaded to have a change of heart and fight alongside you. Everyone deserves a chance to do the right thing. New weapons and return of Marvel superpowers The latest season also brings a wide arsenal of new weapons such as Monarch Pistol, Sovereign Shotgun, Dual Micro SMGs, and the return of Striker Burst Rifle in a moddable form. It also sees the return of Marvel Superpower mythics like Captain America’s Shield, and Doom’s Arcane Gauntlets, both of which have received major upgrades. Furthermore, new superpowers will include War Machine’s Arsenal, shoulder-mount War Machine’s Auto Turret for supporting fire, and War Machine’s Hover Jets. However, more will later be seen in the season such as Peelverine’s Claws, Shuri’s Claws, and Iron Man’s Repulsors. You’ll be able to find these mythics across the island, and some by eliminating Doombot and bosses around the island.

Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 leaks: Gwenpool, Doctor Doom, Marvel theme Marvel / Epic GamesHere are all the leaks related to the rumored Marvel theme for Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4, which is set to feature Doctor Doom and Gwenpool. Fortnite’s Chapter 5 Season 4 has been getting ever closer as the days go by, with its official release date being August 16, 2024. Following further mid-season updates from Epic Games, data miners, and leakers have been able to reveal more details for next season, so here’s a full breakdown. What is Fortnite’s next season theme? Fortnite has not yet confirmed the theme for next season. However, Epic has been teasing that it will be Marvel-themed throughout Chapter 5 Season 3 with the addition of several Stark Industries Rift Beacons around the Battle Royale island. Epic’s leaked Fortnite 2024 Roadmap has also indicated that upcoming Chapter 5 Season 4 will center around MCU’s iconic character Doctor Doom to support the rumors further. The Roadmap collabs and themes so far have all come true and the release dates have been accurate, so it’s safe to say that players will get to experience their favorite Marvel heroes in Fortnite. All Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 leaks explained Doctor Doom After Robert Downey Jr. surprised Marvel fans by revealing he will star as Doctor Doom in the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday movie, players have further speculated how the character will be introduced next season.

With the Stark Industries Beacons being added at the same time as The Wanderer, as well as other details, the theory has only escalated. Leaker HYPEX dug deeper into the game files and stated: “There’s an upcoming POI codenamed ‘AnglePatch’ and a Battle Pass Skin with a Green Cape with the same codename, potentially a Doctor Doom Skin and Boss.” Gwenpool Epic dropped Deadpool & Wolverine skins to help promote the movie on July 27, and a few days later leaks suggested that Gwenpool would be joining Fortnite.

Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 live event: Recap, how to play & timings – Dexerto
Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 live event: Recap, how to play & timings Epic Games/DexertoLooking for info about the next Fortnite live event? Here’s everything about the Chapter 5 Season 3 event’s date, time, and how to attend it. Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 is winding down, but Epic hosted a live event to prepare players for the new season, which is supposedly themed after Marvel. Here you can discover all the info you need on the Chapter 5 Season 3 live event, as all this mayhem unfolds and the road to the next Battle Royale season begins. Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 live event start date and timings Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 live event kicked off on August 10, 2024, in-game at 2 PM ET. As rumored, it unleashed Pandora’s Box to kickstart the events leading up to the new season that will drop on August 16. Here are all the timings across global regions when the event went live: Pacific Time (PT): 11 AM – Central Time (CT): 1 PM – Eastern Time (ET): 2 PM – Universal Coordinated Time (UTC): 6 PM – British Standard Time (BST): 7 PM – Central European Summer Time (CEST): 8 PM – Indian Standard Time (IST): 11:30 PM – Japan Standard Time (JST): 3 AM (August 11) – Australia Eastern Standard Time (AEST): 4 AM (August 11) – New Zealand Standard Time (NZST): 6 AM (August 11) – What happened in the Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 live event? The August 10 live event began with sounds of sirens howling across the Wasteland biome and Nitro-Fuel transported along a pipeline between Redline Rig and Brutal Beachhead. This is to fuel up Megalo Don’s Shark Ship so he can wreck the entire island according to his plan. Shortly we hear Megalo Don talking to the loopers and saying, “Your fate is sealed Wastelanders, enjoy your unhappy ending…” Once the fuel reaches the latter area, someone is seen hacking into the pipeline. Naturally, such tampering results in the pipeline becoming overloaded, which leads to Redline Rig going up in flames. The explosion destroys one-half of the Redline Rig POI and also unleashes Pandora’s Box partway out of the ground. Notably, it’s revealed that Doctor Doom hacked the pipeline. Event lore shared by Fortnite account Ako suggests Doctor Doom, who’d been seen as The Wanderer, betrayed Season 3 villain Megalo Don. Shortly after, the official Fortnite X account also released a teaser with a green image with the text “To be continued”, alongside a caption that said, “Those who wander are not lost. Destruction brings powerful beings.” The post confirmed the upcoming Marvel theme in the next season with strong hints towards Doctor Doom causing all the chaos. Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 Pandora’s Box location Pandora’s Box has returned from the ground where it was submerged towards the finale of Chapter 5 Season 2’s live event. It now sits lodged in a crafter full of lava at the Redline Rig POI. In the previous season, Pandora’s Box played a crucial role in unleashing the apocalypse orchestrated by Hades and turning the island into the Wasteland. Now Doom has once again unshackled the world-ending entity to control it and possibly let loose an apocalypse whose scale could culminate in dire consequences for Fortnite Island. How to attend the Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 live event The live event has since concluded but players were able to log into the Chapter 5 Season 3 Battle Royale Island in a Builds or Zero Build matchmaking lobby 30 minutes before the event starts. This allowed them to experience the event in real time. Though the event has passed, users can still join the fun as the Redline Rig POI and Pandora’s Box changes will likely remain in place until Season 3 ends on August 16. While you’re checking out your local timings on our list above, make sure to stay updated with all the new Chapter 5 Season 4 leaks right here.

Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 Absolute Doom Battle Pass: All tier rewards & Marvel skins Epic Games/HYPEXFortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 Battle Pass brings back some iconic heroes and villains from the Marvel franchise. Here are all the skins and tier rewards right from Gwenpool to Doctor Doom. Fortnite players who have never experienced a Marvel season before are in for a treat, as Chapter 5 Season 4 brings the theme back with a plethora of new skins, POIs, and weapons from the franchise. This time, however, Doctor Doom has taken control of the island alongside a loaded lineup of Marvel villains. They’re up to no good, intending to use the power of the unleashed Pandora’s Box to reclaim the island on their own terms. Luckily, Captain Jonesy and other Marvel characters are here to stop them. The good news is all these characters will be featured in Chapter 5 Season 4, and if you’re keen to take a look, we’ve got a list of them right here. All skins in the Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 Battle Pass There are 8 skins you can unlock and claim in the Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 Battle Pass. You can get all of these skins simply by leveling up your Battle Pass and earning Battle Stars along the way. Here’s a list of all the new skins included in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4’s Battle Pass: Gwenpool – Level 1 – War Machine – Level 15 – Peelverine – Level 30 – Emma Frost – Level 45 – Captain Jonesy – Level 65 – Mysterio – Level 80 – Shuri – Level 100 – Doctor Doom – (Battle Pass Quests in September) – Gwenpool Gwenpool skin will be unlocked instantly once you have purchased the Absolute Doom Battle Pass. The outfit bears a resemblance to its comic counterpart with a pink and white variant of Deadpool. There’s also a variant of Gwenpool without her mask and cel-shading on called the Gwendolyn Poole, where she rocks a more casual look with glasses. Along with this skin, players will also get to unlock Gwenpool’s Katana, which serves both as a back bling and pickaxe alongside her Comic Clouds contrail, Gwen-step emote, and Pig-Gwen Scooter glider. War Machine War Machine can be unlocked in level 14 of the Absolute Doom Battle Pass which is modeled after the MCU suit that Colonel James Rhodes wears in the films. The suit also brings targeting systems and turret powers that players can get in-game as special ability weapons to eliminate players in style. Included in the Battle Pass are the Handheld Missile pickaxe, War Force Wings glider, and an M.O.A.A.B. back bling to complement War Machine’s skin. Additionally, players can unlock Iron Patriot in the Battle Pass, the alternative style for War Machine, which boasts a metallic vibrant red and blue combo. Peelverine After the Peelverine Plush Back Bling was announced as a free reward during the D23 event, players wondered if a special skin of the same character would make an appearance in Fortnite. Turns out Peelverine is the level 30 skin in the Chapter 5 Season 4 Battle Pass and brings the power of Wolverine’s Claws to the game as lethal weapons. Additionally, the fan-favorite banana comes with its own Peelverine Wings back bling, SNIKT! emote where he performs his signature claw moves, and an alternate X-Force Peelverine style with a darker color scheme. Emma Frost Powerful telepath and villain Emma Frost, known as Cyclops’ love interest joins the battle siding with Dr. Doom on the Fortnite island. She is a level 45 skin in the Absolute Doom Battle Pass and dons a signature white outfit as seen in the comics. However, she later sides with the X-Men and turns into a superhero in the lore. Alongside her outfit, the villain comes with her Brilliant Cutters back bling, Hellfire Dance emote, White Queen’s Drone glider, Diamond Strands contrail, and an alternative Organic Diamond Frost style. Captain Jonesy While Captain America was released in Chapter 2 Season 4, the character has had many variants in the game including Sam Wilson’s version of the character. However, in Chapter 5 Season 4 Fortnite’s very own Jonesy wields the mighty Vibranium Shield as Captain Jonesy. He is a level 65 skin and also brings the Shield throwing and bashing abilities to the game as special powers that players can use to wipe out enemies and Doom’s evil forces. The Chapter 5, Season 4 Battle Pass includes Captain Jones’s Shield & Pickaxe that serves as both a pickaxe and back bling, Captain Llamerica emote, Stealth Glider, and an alternative Stealth Captain Jones style as additional cosmetics for the character. Mysterio The master of illusions, Mysterio joins Doom’s side in Chapter 5 Season 4, and is a level 80 Fortnite Battle Pass skin. His outfit is majorly inspired by the design seen in Spider-Man: Far From Home worn by Jake Gyllenhaal. Mysterio also brings illusion powers and abilities to the game that players will be able to use during their Battle Royale or Zero Build gameplay. In the Battle Pass, players will get to unlock Mysterio’s Magic Trick emote, Cloak back bling, Supernatural pickaxe, and an additional Supernatural Mysterio style with a red color scheme. Shuri Shuri is a level 100 outfit in the Absolute Doom Battle Pass and brings a female Black Panther suit into the game. The character will also have bonus styles including themed cosmetic items for players to unlock as they progress along their pass. Shuri brings the might of Wakanda and its technology with the Vibranium Claws powers to the Battle Royale island that players can use to slash their enemies like a panther. Included in the Battle Pass are Shuri’s Skywings glider, Cloak back bling, Vibranium Spear pickaxe, Take the Mantle emote, and Wakanda Royale Shuri as part of the bonus rewards. Super Styles Pages 4-6 of the Battle Pass Bonus Rewards have been released with the 31.10 update. This gives players three brand-new pages full of Super Styles to get for a whole heap of Fortnite Absolute Doom skins. You can start unlocking them after reaching level 125 in the Battle Pass. Each page contains the different Super Styles of Arcane Burn, Cold Sorcery, and Doomforged for the skins War Machine, Emma Frost, Captain Jones, Gwenpool, and Shuri. Doom Finally, Doctor Doom is back in Fortnite as Doom, and this time around he’s the secret skin in the Chapter 5 Season 4 Battle Pass. Although you won’t be able to unlock him instantly or by spending V-Bucks across your Battle Pass, he is available via Doom quests that have been released in the game with update 31.10. Upon completing those quests you’ll likely be able to unlock the entire skin and related cosmetic items which even includes a Pandora’s Armor selectable style that’s modeled after the Pandora’s Box that Doom unleashed in the live event. How much is the Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 Battle Pass? The Battle Pass for Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 will be 950 V-Bucks, and you will be able to earn up to 1,500 V-Bucks by progressing through the pass. To get the pass, you will need to head to the Battle Pass tab, and click on the ‘Get the Pass’ button to buy it in-game. Make sure to stack on your V-Bucks before you go ahead and make a purchase.

Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3’s most “broken” weapon just got more OP – Dexerto
Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3’s most “broken” weapon just got more OP Epic GamesOne Fortnite player has revealed how you can turn Chapter 5 Season 3’s best weapon into a formidable sniper after they accidentally eliminated a player on the other side of the map. The Magneto Power Gauntlets were added shortly after the arrival of Wastelander Magneto in Chapter 5 Season 3. Since then, they have taken the crown as this season’s best weapon. However, just as Fortnite players thought they couldn’t be any more superior, one fan has proved otherwise. Fortnite player HiddenAmongTheCrowd posted to the game Reddit with their clip titled: “I just got the greatest accidental kill I’ve ever gotten.” After wiping out an enemy with the Magneto Power gauntlets projectiles, they fired another off into the distance from the top of Redline Rig. A few seconds later, they were notified they had sniped an opponent, eliminating them from 556m away by accident. “Poor guy just saw a meteorite out of nowhere,” one replied, and many flooded to praise the unbelievable shot. “500+ meters wtf. Didn’t even know projectiles go that far,” a player replied, as another chimed in: “Yeah, the Magneto Powers are classified as a marksman rifle.” Some tried to debunk the remarkable long-range snipe, “Was it not just someone who you knocked down previously? The hit marker does not show you hit someone,” one asked. However, the OP quickly cleared this up and stated: “This was in a Solo game, no knocks.” Fortnite’s Wrecked theme for Chapter 5 Season 3 has divided the community ever since its Nitro-fueled vehicle took over the map. Driving around the Battle Royale island with fortified vehicles to wipe out enemies instantly became the meta. Nitro Fists then followed to counter-act them, but when the Mageneto’s Power gauntlets joined, they quickly dominated and were hailed as “broken” due to their OP abilities.

Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 May 30 hotfix: Nitro Cars nerfed, Boogie Bomb unvault & more – Dexerto
Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 May 30 hotfix: Nitro Cars nerfed, Boogie Bomb unvault & more Epic GamesWith the release of Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3, vehicles have quickly begun to dominate the meta, and it looks like the devs are aiming to curb this. A new patch looks to bring the various cars to a more level playing field, while also announcing the return of the Boogie Bomb and a tease for a future item. For a breakdown of everything this patch is changing, here are all the changes coming to Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3. Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 May 30 hotfix patch notes Talk about a high octane season launch 🔥 — Fortnite (@FortniteGame) May 30, 2024 We’ve unvaulted Boogie Bombs 🚗 💃🕺 as well as made some balance adjustments to some features, like: 🛠Reduced Machine Gun Turrets accuracy and Grenade Launcher Turrets damage to structures. 🛠Reduced vehicle health in Solos. 🛠Boss… Overall, the patch is aiming to make it easier for players who aren’t using a car to stand a chance against someone who is. It starts by reducing the effectiveness of both Machine Gun turrets and Grenade Launcher turrets. The decreasing of vehicle health in solos is a great change to help with the final circles being dominated by players driving Mythic cars that took forever to take down. Not allowing Boss cars to not regenerate health automatically is also going to make these skirmishes much easier and not feel as overwhelming as they did before. While the buff to both the Boom Bolt and the Nitro Gauntlets are going to be useful as well. The Boom Bolt can fire off explosive bolts that, with this new boost in damage, can help fight off a car that won’t leave you alone. Nitro Gauntlets have largely been seen as the best counter to vehicles thanks to their powerful, charged melee strike. So allowing more hits to be delivered in a shorter amount of time will be great. Finally, the reduction to the damage of Nitro shoulder bash will make this move less overpowered. Prior to this, this attack could easily take out most your health in one go, rendering the fight over before it began for the target. Overall, the patch is bringing some decent changes to help shift the meta to be more accessible for every player, not just those using vehicles. And it looks like they can even look forward to a brand new item coming in the very near future as well.

Chapter 5 Season 3 has finally crash-landed into Fortnite to shake up the island with this season’s Wrecked theme that centers around a nitro-fueled wasteland. Epic has unleashed a series of Wasteland Warriors onto the island with its Wrecked Battle Pass, which is jam-packed full of all-new post-apocalyptic skins and cosmetics. The show’s stars are the Wasteland Warriors and major collaboration skins from the world of Fallout and Marvel. All skins in the Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 Battle Pass There are 8 skins you can unlock and claim in the Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 Battle Pass.

The original Outfit from Epic lives up to its nitro-fueled vehicle theme with its mechanic aesthetic. You can also unlock its Cobalt Burn Machinist skin style and the Hydraulic Slammer Pickaxe, which is a wrench. Rust Rust can be unlocked at level 14 in the Battle Pass, who is ready to rock it out in Fortnite Festival’s wasteland. He features a full-leather black Outfit complete with spiked shoulder pads and chains. Partnered with the skin is his Metalhead Back Bling, Wrecking Axe Pickaxe and Wasteland Rock Emote that pulls out a post-apocalyptic electric guitar. Peabody Peadbody introduces players to Phil, Earl, and Axle, who are the three peas that come together to make up the bizarre new skin. This will be the typical meme skin for this season’s Battle Pass, and was originally featured in the Fortnite survey. Ringmaster Scarr Ringmaster Scarr is another rocker being introduced in the Wrecked Battle Pass. This time it is a female punk-inspired skin that features a bright pink and blue spiked up hair along with a whole heap of leather, studs and spikes. You can also unlock two skin styles of Ruiner Scarr, and Night Hunter Scarr, which the latter will be the last reward you unlock by completing the whole pass. They both give new colorstyles and wear animal-style masks. T-60 Power Armor The T-60 Power Armor skin from the Fallout series will be added to the game as a Battle Pass skin.

This Nitro-fueled apex predator is a fierce original skin from Epic that is sure to freighten your opponents.

Super Styles Pages 4-6 of the Battle Pass Bonus Rewards have been released with the 30.10 update. This gives players three brand-new pages full of Super Styles to get for a whole heap of Fortnite Wrecked skins. Each page contains the different Super Styles of Cold Fusion, Neon Hazard and Digital Ghost for the skins Rust, Brite Raider, Ringmaster Scarr, The Machinist and Megalo Don. Wastelander Magneto Epic Games has confirmed that although the Wastelander Magneto Outfit will not be available at the start of the season, you will be able to get your hands on it following the launch of Battle Pass quests in July.

Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 leaks: Fallout crossover, weapons, teasers & more – Dexerto
Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 leaks: Fallout crossover, weapons, teasers & more Epic GamesFortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 is shaping up to be quite exciting and we’ve got all the info right from leaks about the Fallout crossover, live event, and teasers for you right here. With Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 ultimately coming to an end on May 24, speculations have been rising about what Epic Games has in store for Fortnite’s next season. Although the key art of the next season has revealed a Fallout crossover incoming, much is still under wraps. Chapter 5 Season 1 concluded with its Titan Hand and Earthquake event that captivated players with its near-impossible to break Pandora’s Box. Epic has now launched a similar build-up event codenamed “SuperSport” onto the Battle Royale island to lead into Chapter 5 Season 3. Alongside the event, several leaks and teasers about the next season have started to surface. So here’s everything we know about it. Contents Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 live event details – Next season’s theme – Teasers explained – Battle Pass & Weapon leaks – Is there a live event for Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3? Yes, there is a mini-live event for Chapter 5 Season 3 that started on May 13, 2024, at 11 am ET / 8 am PT / 4 pm BST on the Battle Royale island itself. The build-up event began with the Mount Olympus statue emitting blue light rays with heavy storm clouds which marked Stage 1. By the time it was Stage 3, the statue’s eyes started to glow and at Stage 5 a lightning bolt hit the structure. In the following 3 stages, the statue raised its sword up in the air and struck a lightning bolt at the Pandora’s Box currently sunken in the Styx River by the Restored Reels POI. At first, the statue emitted blue lightning which eventually turned red and stuck the Pandora’s Box once again which overloaded it and resulted in it being sunken deeper into the river. Furthermore, the box burst out a glowing red element that bounced across the island and caused a blast on the horizon of the Chapter 5 Season 2 map. This further caused a Sandstorm coming towards the island from the distance. Soon, red lightning was observed near the Sandstorm that data miners like ShiinaBR believe is speaking in Morse code, which translates to “No Hope”. Furthermore, the music played during the live event featured heavy electric guitar riffs which players thought hints toward the rumored Metallica collab coming to Fortnite Festival soon. Now the sandstorm is fast approaching on the island, with the southern areas of the map receiving waves of the storm and the sky being covered with dark clouds. It is unknown exactly how long the event will last, but it is expected to carry on till Chapter 5 Season 3 begins on May 24th. What is the next season’s theme? The next season will feature Fallout-themed gameplay where players will be dropped into a barren wasteland of an apocalyptic era, much like the Fallout universe itself. According to the Story Quests in Chapter 5 Season 2, after Zeus was defeated, The Oracle disclosed the prophecy of the suffocating dust and clouded sky, about an incoming disaster that was drawing near. “Storm clouds gather. The Wanderer draws near.” The Oracle said. However, theorists like DavidTheRune compiled all the hints dropped within story quests this season and revealed that The Wanderer is an unknown entity that hasn’t wandered physically but only through the mind to manipulate Zeus’ powers. He wants to overload Pandora’s Box and release himself into the physical form which is now building an apocalyptic sandstorm. David also revealed that a symbol leaked in a new spectrogram for the upcoming season was seen on a loading screen back in Chapter 2 Season 7. Although the theory has been deemed worthy by the player community, it’s the official Fortnite teasers that reveal crucial information about the upcoming season. All Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 teasers explained The official name for Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 has been revealed by the game’s official X account and it is called Wrecked. Furthermore, Epic Games Co-Founder Mark Rein also revealed his word for the next season, “Nitro”, which players believe is going to be a substance that will alter a looper’s abilities during gameplay. However, the official key art posted by Fortnite reveals that a Fallout crossover will arrive in the new season with an Industrial POI, Knights armor, and a Desert biome where players will experience the latest additions. Furthermore, several content creators have received packages from Epic Games with a remote-controlled car which seems to be the upcoming vehicle in Chapter 5 Season 3. The vehicle is named Nitro and a nameplate that says “Eat Ntro” could also be spotted. A Battle Bus and Fortnite-branded monster truck was spotted at the Monster Jam World Finals in Los Angeles. It soon sent the community into a frenzy after it featured the start date of Chapter 5 Season 3, May 24, and looked as if it was straight out of the teased post-apocalyptic wasteland. Monster Jam has since announced: “This halftime stunt will be one to remember” and tagged Fortnite. According to HYPEX, the monster truck teased during the half-time show will be added in Season 3, with the potential of more coming in a major Monster Jam collaboration. A new POI teaser started making the rounds on May 20, courtesy of another post from HYPEX. The POI in question bears the name “Nitro Drome,” and its accompanying imagery looks like the entrance to a monster truck arena. An additional leak revealed that four of the POIs from the previous season will completely disappear, leaving new POIs to take their place. The following POIs have been rumored to be leaving the game: Mount Olympus, Fencing Fields, Restored Reels, and The Underworld. A new Fortnite teaser reveals the T-60 Power Armor from Fallout that will be introduced in the game, alongside several new skins and weapons. Shortly after the above clip went live, Fortnite developers released another piece of art. The image depicts a “ruthless leader” and also hints at the rumored Shark Ship POI. Battle Pass skins and weapons leaks According to several leaks, Chapter 5 Season 3 will bring five original concept skins that have been decrypted in past surveys by data miners such as HYPEX. However, the latest teaser posted by Fortnite reveals that players will get the T-60 Power Armor from the Fallout series as a Battle Pass skin and is customizable with various styles. You can check out the full leaks about the upcoming Chapter 5 Season 3 Battle Pass right here on our main hub. Apart from the skins, numerous new weapons and items have also been revealed to be introduced in Chapter 5 Season 3. These include the return of the Combat AR, however this time you’ll be able to mod it using a Mod Bench in the game. More weapons seen in the latest T-60 Armor trailer were a new Shotgun, a Flamethrower, a weapon with a long hook, a laser-themed weapon, and a Minigun. Furthermore, a new consumable will also be added that will give players and their teammates a speed boost in the match. All the leaks and rumors mentioned are subject to change as more information is released.

Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 teasers explained: Myths & Mortals, trailer, Greek theme & more – Dexerto
Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 teasers explained: Myths & Mortals, trailer, Greek theme & more Epic GamesFortnite has dropped various offical teasers for Chapter 5 Season 2, which is called Myths & Mortals. This includes a new teaser trailer, various skins, weapons and more as part of the Greek Mythology themed season. Here are all the teasers explained. Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 is right around the verge, as the current season concludes with a Pandora’s Box in-game live event. With a huge Titan Hand appearing near the Ruined Reels POI and a Pandora’s Box tethered to it, the community banded together to bust it open, unleashing a flaming tornado with wicked souls emerging. While all of this is happening on the island, Epic Games has begun releasing official teasers for the future season, and the company’s Co-Founder, Mark Rein, has also disclosed his word for the next season. As leaks for Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 have already surfaced, the latest teasers validate long-held fan assumptions. Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 teasers reveal Zeus, Hades skin and Greek Mythology theme On March 4, 2024, the official Fortnite X account posted the first teaser for the forthcoming season, confirming the Greek Mythology theme and revealing much more that would be added to the game in the following days. The first official teaser for Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 features a figure that resembles the Greek God of Thunder Zeus, hurling a Lightning Bolt made out of a constellation in space toward the sky. The teaser was accompanied by the words, “Can you feel the thunder?”, followed by a lightning bolt emoji. Looking closely at the teaser several fans pointed out how the character holding the lightning bolt has grenades strapped to their body and under the lightning bolt constellation, is a spear which might be the next weapon introduced in the upcoming season. Furthermore the Zeus skin was also teased on the front image of the Pandora’s Box which consisted of a total of four images. According to several sources on X, the first image is Zeus, followed by Ares, Hades, and Cerberus, rumored to be the next teasers until the new season arrives. However, it wasn’t Ares that was posted on Tuesday, instead Epic has showcased the Greek god of Hades, who is the god of death and king of the underworld. Hades was revealed by Epic at the exact same time Zeus was the day before. Epic Games has posted another official teaser image, this time many believe it is for a previously leaked Aphrodite skin. Fortnite did not provide a name, but have posted the image to their socials with the caption: “Don’t fly too close to the sun…” This is the first time they have mentioned the word “fly,” despite alluding to it with previous offical teasers. The ability to fly is therefore pretty much confirmed to be coming in Season 2, which also supports the widespread speculation and further leaks that have surfaced in the community. Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 Myths & Mortals Loading Screen Perhaps Fortnite’s last official teaser, aside from the upcoming trailer is the release of the official Loading Screen for Chapter 5 Season 2. It is jam packed full with new skins, map changes and weapons, as well as finally revealing this season’s official name ‘Myths and Mortals.’ All together there is seven skins being showed off in the Myths & Mortals Loading Screen. Most notably, Rippley Poseidon shown on the left, Cerberus behind Poseidon and Artemis in purple in the top right. Even though the Rippley Poseidon skin features his famous Trident and crown attire, Epic Games has gone for a more lighthearted approach with their Rippley version, as players are already hailing it the “meme” skin of this season. The Peely skin was released in a previous season and the three gods in the center are those already mentioned above of Zeus, Hades and Aphrodite. A brand-new SMG and marksman rifle look set to be shaking up the meta in Season 2, which are shown held by Zeus and Aphrodite. As well as this four new Mythic weapons shown in the image are alleged to join, such as Zeus’ Lightning Bolt, Hade’s Chains, Cerberus’ Wolves and Icarus’ Wings. Behind all the chaos, you can see what looks to be two drastically different new POI locations on the left and right. According to a claimed playtester, eight new POIs are set to be coming this season. Fortnite Myths & Mortals Season 2 teaser trailer Fortnite has now released their official cinematic teaser trailer for Season 2, which gives a further look at what we can expect to see when it finally launches on March 8, 2024. At the start, Artemis, the goddess of wild animals and the hunt, is shown with two wolves by her side and being controlled by her. This futher suggests players will be able to control Cerberus’s Wolves as a Mythic weapon in Season 2. This is followed by Hades’ absorbing some from of mysterious green powers, as a player then is seen jumping into action using the suspected Mythic weapon of Hades’ Chains to eliminate their opponent. Finally, it ends with a player picking up another Mythic of Zeus’s Lightning Bolt, which all three are set to feature across the Battle Royale map for Fortnite’s upcoming Greek Mythology season. As with any new Fortnite season, the full cinematic trailer for Chapter 5 Season 2: Myths and Mortals is expected to release a few hours before season drops on March 8, 2024. We’ll keep you updated right here as more teasers drop for the upcoming Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2.

Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 took a step backwards in almost every way – Dexerto
Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 took a step backwards in almost every way Epic GamesThe most recent season of Fortnite saw the game take a big step backward in terms of the content it delivers for the price people are paying. Chapter 5 Season 1 was a solid way to kick off the new era of Fortnite, as we saw the game’s world collide with the Omniverse to bring us characters like Peter Griffin and Solid Snake to the battle. When leaks around Season 2 pointed towards Greek mythology entering the mix, it looked poised to be another solid season with plenty of content to draw from for new locations, new skins, and more in Fortnite. However, this has proven to be the opposite. Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 has been somewhat of a “meh” season that hasn’t really done much to keep anyone’s attention. It’s not even that Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 was bad, it was just painfully mediocre for reasons that could have been easily fixed. For starters, the Greek mythology content has been fine. Now, fine is not bad, but it just feels like bringing these characters and stories to the game should be bigger than it is. The skins are passable, and some of the new areas on the map are interesting to look at. The idea of fighting Cerberus at the entrance to Hell is cool, but it becomes a headache when over half the match is landing there to fight. When the odds of being taken out in a matter of seconds at the beginning of a match are high, it prompts people to just avoid that area. It’s a disappointment not to be able to explore a new area of the map; players should want to make their way to everything that is changed, but having everyone congregated there makes it more of a chore than anything. Beyond just the map, however, the battle pass for Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 was just a letdown. There were no skins or cosmetics that really earned the money people needed to pay for it. Sure, the Cerburus skin looks cool, but it doesn’t stand out from any other skin in the game and certainly doesn’t overshadow any of the skins based on popular characters that came before. Then there was the Star Wars event that was released around the same time as May the 4th, which should have been a home run. Bringing Star Wars into the fold will always be an exciting time for players. But not this time, as the event was just kind of shoulder shrug, with most of the content going to the LEGO Fortnite mode. LEGO is the new mode that is gaining popularity, and that content is quite fun, but there is so much more to Fortnite than just that. There needed to be more given to the other modes to make it worth the fans’ time. Sure, there was some cool stuff in the Battle Royale modes, like being able to fight Vader on the map. Even though you can get his lightsaber for beating him, it doesn’t really do enough to make the process worth it. He’s a tough fight, and you can almost guarantee there will be someone waiting for you to finish him off before swooping in to take out the sliver of health you have left. Finally, one of the biggest issues that has been plaguing the game is still running rampant: Water Bending. This ability came as part of the Last Airbender collaboration and has been broken for a long time. Water Bending offers 24 body damage and 36 on headshots, while also having no recoil, distance limitations, cooldown, or bullet drop. It’s been a big issue in the game and has yet to be addressed properly. It’s made worse by the fact that there are a lot of good weapons that came to Fortnite this season. One of the things Chapter 5 Season 2 did better than the last is giving a much wider range of weapons and items for people to use. However, this is overshadowed by Water Bending, which is still dominating the meta of the game and causing everything else to become irrelevant once it’s found. There are many moving parts to fixing the Water Bending issue, but it is still past time that there was some comment made about it, some sign that shows the devs know about it and are working to fix it. Overall, Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 just felt like it was spinning its wheels and didn’t capitalize on its themes enough. Now as the game approaches the beginning of the next season, the mood has become one of being underwhelmed, or worse: apathetic.

Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 patch notes: New weapons, map changes, mythic items & more – Dexerto
Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 patch notes: New weapons, map changes, mythic items & more Epic GamesFortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 Myths and Mortals has arrived and brings loads of exciting content to the game that players have been waiting for. Here are the patch notes. After a long wait and an exciting live event on the map, Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 is finally here. The new season is called Myths and Mortals and brings new content tied to Greek Mythology to the game. Furthermore, Epic has released a full gameplay trailer showcasing how the Battle Royale island will look this time around. This includes new Mythic weapons, Battle Pass skins, new guns, and much more that is now in the game. Here are the full patch notes for Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2. Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 update downtime details Downtime for Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 update v29.00 is currently underway as servers are set to go live on Friday, March 8, 2024, at 2 PM PT / 5 PM ET / 10 PM BST, which is 8 hours later than usual time. We’ll keep you updated right here once the downtime ends and you’re ready to jump back into the game. Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 patch notes Battle Pass skins featuring Greek Mythology characters The latest Fortnite season titled Myths and Mortals brings a brand new Battle Pass full of Greek Mythology characters. The pass features the Greek god of Thunder Zeus, the Legend of the underworld Hades, Artemis, Cerberus, Aphrodite, Medusa, Poseidon, and Avatar Korra. Furthermore, players will be able to unlock the Ares skin from April’s Fortnite Crew. Moreover, the Odyssey skin seen in Chapter 5 Season 1 as an NPC will be a free Ranked reward for all players completing quests in Ranked mode. You can also get digital codes from Walmart and Best Buy. Xbox players can grab theirs from Microsoft directly. If your Epic account is linked to your console accounts, you can buy through Epic directly too. Fortnite x Avatar collaboration Epic Games has now collaborated with the animated series Avatar: The Last Airbender‘s spinoff and brings Korra, who is the immediate successor of Aang as a Battle Pass collab skin in Chapter 5 Season 2. The collab also brings the mythic abilities of Korra to the game which will also be an item playable during Battle Royale matches. New mythic items and weapons Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 brings four new Mythic weapons to the game that are obtainable by defeating four different bosses across the island. Firstly, the Thunderbolt of Zeus can be obtained from the island or by defeating Zeus himself. It launches the user up in the air and hurls lightning bolts at your target. The second weapon is the Gatekeeper Shotgun which fires three aggressive shots in quick succession. This can be obtained as regular loot or the Mythic version can be acquired by defeating the Cerberus boss. The third new weapon is the Harbinger SMG which is highly accurate at the first shot but increases recoil and bloom with consecutive shots. You can get the base rarities across the island or the mythic version by defeating Hades on the map. The fourth one is the Huntress DMR which works perfectly as a long-range marksman rifle to hunt down gods. You can either claim this from the island, buy it from Artemis, or defeat Zeus for the mythic variant. Additionally, a Warforged Assault Rifle is also introduced which comes with a high rate of fire and recoil and can be found across the island easily. You can also defeat Ares boss on the island and get the Mythic version. Lastly, Wings of Icarus is a brand new traversal item that grants you the power of flight which limits the height you can reach and break if you take damage from incoming shots. Lastly, the Chains of Hades is another Mythic item that will be added later this season, alongside a customizable Hand Cannon. Furthermore, several weapons will remain in this season such as Hammer Pump Shotgun, Frenzy Auto Shotgun, Nemesis AR, Thunder Burst SMG, Reaper Sniper Rifle, Cluster Clingers, and Ranger Pistol. New map locations and POIs Four new POIs have been added to the Fortnite Chapter 5 map, namely Mount Olympus, Grim Gate, The Underworld, and Brawler’s Battleground. Each of these POIs has been themed after Greek Mythology architecture and hosts NPC bosses roaming the area. You can defeat the boss there and grab a Mythic weapon to help you claim the Victory Royale. New Weapon Mods Since Weapon Mods was a new feature introduced in the previous Fortnite season, in Chapter 5 Season 2 Epic has added a couple of new mods that suit the new weapons perfectly. These include a Thermal scope which gives thermal vision to the user for any scoped weapon. The second mod is the Speedgrip Mod where your movement speed while aiming will increase. Also, this time around the mod benches are in new Weapons Bunkers. The bunkers that are unchained will unlock in the middle of the match when they become ready to raid. Festival instruments included in Battle Pass After a heated backlash on prices of Fortnite Festival instruments, Epic has now included free instruments for Battle Pass skins within the pass itself. This means owners of the pass will now have access to instruments themed to their skins they have unlocked alongside other cosmetic items. However, it is currently unclear if all Battle Pass skins will have their themed instruments or not. New skins and cosmetic bundles New starter packs for Chapter 5 Season 2 have also been decrypted and will be introduced later this season. These include a Battle Royale starter pack featuring the Clara skin, a pickaxe, and back bling. Similarly, a Save The World starter pack called Vinderman 2.0 pack has also been added to the current season which will soon be released in the Item Shop. Lastly, a LEGO Fortnite starter pack for Chapter 5 Season 2 named Operation Brite pack has been added which gives buyers a Brite Agent skin, a back bling, and a digital Brite Bomber Bedroom building set. Furthermore, Midas is back as a new greek-themed skin alongside other skins that will soon be added like Olympus, Chewbacca from Star Wars (alongside a mythic weapon) and a lantern fest cosmetic outfit. Floor is Lava LTM returns According to data miners, the Floor is Lava LTM will be returning in Chapter 5 Season 2 in a future update. The entire map will be engulfed in Lava and players will need to survive the heat to claim their Victory. Furthermore, a tournament of the same LTM is also rumored to arrive later this season. New medallions Five new medallions will be available for players to use in a Fortnite Battle Royale and Zero Build match. These medallions can be acquired from bosses around the Chapter 5 Season 2 island by defeating them. These medallions each grant players Combat, Siphon, Speed and Agility powers during their Battle Royale gameplay. New competitive tournaments With a new Fortnite season, the iconic Women of the Erena tournament returns to the game. The tournament is an all-women invitational competition that will take place on March 16 (Qualifiers) and March 23 (Main Event). Winners get a chance to grab a share of the $75,000 prize pool. Furthermore, a new PlayStation Cup, Console Cash Cups, Victory Cash Cups, and Ranked Cups have all been announced which will take place throughout the duration of Chapter 5 Season 2. LEGO Fortnite building kits With update v29.00 and Chapter 5 Season 2, LEGO Fortnite players will be able to purchase digital building kits which will include building blueprints and decor items themed to that kit.

Chapter 5 Season 2 Myths and Mortals has added 4 brand-new legendary POI locations, which are all home to different Greek gods. These include Mount Olympus, Grim Gate, The Underworld, and Brawler’s Battleground. Various mid-season updates have followed since this season’s launch, which have shaken up the map even further. This included Aang the Avatar takeover with the in-game Avatar Elements event, which is now replaced with the latest Star Wars crossover content. Here’s everything you need to know about the Season 2 map, its new POI locations, and any mid-season updates to the Island along the way. Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 new map You will be able to spot minor changes on the Fortnite map since it’s the same Chapter 5 island as the previous season. Formerly having a larger snowy region which is now reduced to the northeast side of the map, to introducing four new POIs that feature unique Greek-themed buildings and lakes, there’s a lot for you to explore in the game. Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 new POIs Here’s all the new Chapter 5 Season 2 POI locations: Mount Olympus – Grim Gate – The Underworld – Brawler’s Battleground – Mount Olympus Mount Olympus is set to be a key POI location on this Season’s map. As Epic stated: “You can’t have Olympus without Mount Olympus.” It is the home of the Greek god Zeus and features a noticeably large grand monument that graces the mountains behind as it watches down on players. Grim Gate Before you can get to The Underworld, you will need to get past Grim Gate by crossing its river. This is home to the three-headed guard dog Cerberus and is located on the west of the Island. The Underworld Once you make it past the hounds you will reach the home of Hades, otherwise known as The Underworld. It has various flowing green streams, which constrast against the dry terrain. Brawler’s Battleground Finally, Brawler’s Battleground rounds out the 4 new POI locations and is home to the god of war, Ares. Here you can take him up on his challenge as he welcomes a battle. It is located directly south of the Mount Olympus POI towards the bottom right of the Island. Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 29.01 update map changes With the 29.01 update, Midas briefly returned to the Island before being removed in the next update and was able to be found as an NPC wandering around his Marigold yacht. The boat was given a full Midas makeover, which featured various objects, such as his own statue at the center of the main lobby. Midas’ Service Stations and Vending Machines were also spread out across the Island and would randomly spawn, which gave unique benefits if players were lucky enough to find them. At the Underworld POI, you will also notice his prison cell has been broken open. Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 29.20 update map changes Fortnite’s 29.20 update removed Midas and his Marigold yacht, which can no longer be found on the Island. Instead, the star of the show for this update is Aang the Avatar and the Avatar Elements event. With the arrival of Aang, water, earth, fire, and air shrines have appeared across the Island. Head inside one of the 8 shrines scattered around the Island and open its container to wield that shrine’s associated bending technique. To pay homage to the iconic Cabbage seller from the Avatar: The Last Airbender series, various Cart Cabbage locations have also appeared across the Island. The NPC roster has been given another shuffle, with Aang, Katara, Zuko and Toph being placed at different parts of the Battle Royale map. As well as this, fan-favorite Peely has been added as an NPC with a new small campsite located just south of the Restored Reels POI. Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 29.40 update map changes Fortnite’s latest 29.40 update adds new Star Wars crossover content to the game. This adds five Imperial Roadblocks around the map, with Stormtroopers patrolling the area. These roadblocks also consist of Imperial Chests from where players can acquire the Mythic E-11 Blaster Rifle and Mythic Wookie Bowcaster. You may also find Chewbacca at one of these spots seeking assistance from players to rescue him from Stormtroopers. You’ll be able to locate him by following the blue smoke signal on the map before jumping out of the Battle Bus. Furthermore, Darth Vader is now on the map and is located far north of Lavish Lair at Piney Lane landmark, alongside his Lambda shuttle and patrolling Stormtroopers. You can find him at the same location in every match and you can eliminate him to claim his Red Mythic Lightsaber, which is the only lightsaber in the game as of now.

Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 Medallions: How to get, abilities & more – Dexerto
Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 Medallions: How to get, abilities & more FortniteFind out how you can get all the medallions in Fortnite Chapter 5, Season 2, as well as the abilities they can give you. Medallions were first introduced in Chapter 5, Season 1, allowing players to regenerate their shield overtime without the help of shield-related item, with the tradeoff of exposing their location. However, medallions in Chapter 5, Season 2, have a completely different function, giving players different abilities depending on which boss they defeat. Here are all of the new medallions in Chapter 5, Season 2, how to obtain them, and what effects they give on the player. All Fortnite medallions and their effects The four medallions in Chapter 5, Season 2, introduces unique effects never before added to Fortnite. To acquire each medallion, players must eliminate characters inspired by Greek mythology related to that specific medallion. Aspect of Combat Defeating the Ares NPC allows players to obtain the Aspect of Combat, a medallion inspired by Ares. Upon retrieval, the medallion will grant long-distance weapons with increased damage. If you’d like to get your hands on this medallion, make sure to head to the Brawler’s Battleground, where you’ll see Ares roaming around. Aspect of Siphon Inspired by Hades, this medallion carries a similar effect to its predecessors when a player in possession of it is killed – the medallion is dropped and can be picked up by another player. When obtained, the Aspect of Siphon will grant the player with a siphon healing effect after enemy eliminations. Hades resides in The Underworld, a POI with a river capable of giving you three dashes. Aspect of Agility Thanks to Cerberus, the Aspect of Agility medallion will grant players who have it in their possession the ability to dash. This “underworld” dash will recharge over time for quick bursts of mobility. You’ll need to head to the Grim Gate if you’d like to challenge Cerberus and equip this medallion in your game. Aspect of Speed Similar to the Aspect of Agility, Zeus’ Aspect of Speed medallion gives players the ability to run faster and jump higher while sprinting. So the player now has the option to decide between a burst of speed or longer-lasting effects. The Aspect of Speed medallion can be obtained in Mount Olympus after successfully defeating Zeus. These are the four medallions available in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2. Like the ones from the previous season, they will all reveal the player’s location on the map. When a player with a medallion (or multiple medallions) is killed, they drop the medallion for another player to pick up. That’s everything we know about Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2’s Medallions.

Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1 Train explained: How to heist, locations & more – Dexerto
Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1 Train explained: How to heist, locations & more Epic GamesTrain is by far one of the most surprising additions to Fortnite and with the release of Chapter 5 Season 1, it has now hyped players as they’re now jumping on the moving vehicle on the Battle Royale island. Here’s where you can locate and heist the Train in the game. Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1 has added a plethora of new features that have been well anticipated by players for several months. While the LEGO mode and Weapon Mods were no surprise to the player base when they were added with the latest v28.00 patch, one addition completely caught them off guard. And that addition was a moving Train around the new Chapter 5 map. This feature can easily be seen inspired by other Battle Royale games like Call of Duty: Warzone as it has now been added to Fortnite as well. Players can now board the moving Train at any point on the island and either hide inside a carriage or combat by standing on top of it while they’re taking a ride. However, if you’re looking to complete a quest by carrying a Train Heist or locate the moving vehicle, here’s how you can do it. How to locate the Train Locating the Train is rather simple in Fortnite if you’re well-versed with the Chapter 5 Season 1 island. The map contains several small train stations from where players can board the train, but since it doesn’t stop anywhere except its terminal POI Reckless Railways, it’s best to jump on it from there. However, if you’re roaming across the island, there are two ways you can locate the train.

Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1 Society Medallions: How they work, locations & more – Dexerto
Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1 Society Medallions: How they work, locations & more Epic GamesSociety Medallions are a brand-new addition to Fortnite in Chapter 5 Season 1 that grant access to some special abilities and loot during a Battle Royale match. If you’re looking to get your hands on one, here are all the locations and how they work. The much-awaited Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1 has arrived and it brings a new Underground theme where players will fight against the Society syndicate on the island, heist trains, and climb their way up to Victory Royale. Moreover, the overhauled animations and movement mechanics have been met with mixed thoughts from players. Regardless, the hype around the new season is at its peak as players finally get to use the Weapon Mods system in the game that allows them to customize their weapons. However, to do so, you need a Mod Bench which is only available in Vaults accessible via Society Medallions. The Medallions are new items in Fortnite that can be acquired in a Battle Royale match that gives you access to some rare loot and special abilities. Here’s everything you need to know about them in Chapter 5 Season 1. Contents What are Society Medallions in Fortnite – How to get Society Medallions in Fortnite – Society Medallions locations – What are Society Medallions? Society Medallions are new items in Fortnite that are stored in your inventory, similar to a Victory Crown. They don’t take up any space among any of the five slots and you can acquire them during a Battle Royale match. The player who grabs a Society Medallion during a match is marked by a yellow circle around them, similar to a bounty circle, but is visible to all players on the mini-map. You can carry multiple Medallions in your inventory and stack them up, but beware as the more of these you have, the more precise the radius of your location is displayed to your opponents. Additionally, carrying a Society Medallion in your inventory helps regenerate shield over time and the more of these you carry, the faster the shield regeneration rate. How to get Society Medallions in Fortnite You can get your hands on a Society Medallion in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1 by defeating any of the five bosses roaming around the map namely Oscar, Nisha, Montague, Valeria, and Peter Griffin. While defeating a boss can be a bit tough as they have their Society Guards roaming around them, make sure you directly aim at the boss there and keep firing. If you stop shooting at a damaged boss, they will then regenerate their shield and become a tougher opponent to fight. Once you defeat them, they’ll drop a Society Medallion which you can store in your inventory throughout the match. They can also be dropped so you can pass it on to a teammate. Society Medallions locations Society Medallions are located at five different POIs around the Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1 map. They are – Lavish Lair, Grand Glacier, Reckless Railways, Fencing Fields, and Snooty Steppes. You’ll be able to spot them easily on your mini-map with the Medallion icons above these POIs. If you see a Medallion above the location, that means the boss has not been defeated in that location yet. However, if they’ve been eliminated, it’ll show the yellow ring around the player holding it. So there you have it – everything you need to know about Society Medallions in Fortnite.

Moreover, the Big Bang live event smashed Twitch viewership records and revealed three new game modes coming soon to the game. As the official launch trailer for Chapter 5 Season 1 had already been released prior to the live event, it provided players with an early look at the gameplay. The trailer also debunked and confirmed multiple leaks regarding the features in the upcoming season that have been circulating on social media for some time. As you the wait finally ends before you jump in the game, read on the Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1 patch notes to learn what’s in store.

Servers are slowly going live in different regions and platforms, so you should be able to jump back in soon! Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1 patch notes New map adds 11 new POIs The brand new island has been revealed for Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1. This time around there are 11 new POIs that are added to the map, across four different biomes. Here are all the names of the locations where you’ll be dropping with your squad this season – Rebel’s Roost, Lavish Lair, Classy Courts, Ritzy Riviera, Ruined Reels, Reckless Railways, Grand Glacier, Pleasant Piazza, Fencing Fields, Hazy Hillside and Snooty Steppes. Moreover, railway tracks have also been added to the map towards the center that connects most POIs around the area. Moving train now roams the island A moving train has now been added to the Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1 map, allowing players to board it. Using the ‘Capture the Train‘ objective, players can ride a train that traverses the island while capturing loot and eliminating foes. Additionally, you have the capability to engage in combat and leap between train carriages. The tracks of the train begins from the Reckless Railways POIs and connects several POIs towards the center of the map. Customize your loadout with Weapon mods Customize your loadout in Fortnite now has a whole new meaning. Located in vaults are Mod Benches, which have mods available for many weapons in exchange for Bars. Add mods that reduce recoil, increase mag capacity, change optic and more. Save up your Bars wisely, though, as not every mod works with every weapon. You don’t need a Mod Bench to wield a modded weapon. Most mod-compatible weapons are already modded. If it’s of Uncommon rarity, it’ll already have one mod. If it’s of Rare rarity, it’ll have two mods. Epic rarity, three mods. And Legendary, four. If you want different mods than the ones that came with your weapon, you can still replace them at Mod Benches in exchange for Bars. Experiment with different combos to see what’s best for you. However, Mod-compatible weapons aren’t for sale from Characters or Vending Machines, so keep your eyes peeled for loot. Wall Climbing and other movement mechanics Wall Climbing mechanics for Fortnite, which had been repeatedly leaked, were eventually unveiled in the launch trailer for Chapter 5 Season 1. Regardless of the presence of a ledge, this enables players to run towards and scale walls and other towering structures. Additionally, Hurdling, which was disabled in Chapter 4 Season 1, has made its triumphant return to the game with an enhanced animation. Big Bang Battle Pass with Peter Griffin, Solid Snake & more The Battle Pass for Chapter 5 Season 1, brings Solid Snake (Metal Gear Solid) and Peter Griffin (Family Guy) to Fortnite. Furthermore, Peter now has a Swole appearance and brings other cosmetic items themed after the hit TV show. Additional Battle Pass outfits features new characters named Oscar, Vengeance Jones, Nisha, Montague, and Valeria. An easter egg in the launch trailer also hints at a forthcoming collaboration with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles in Chapter 5. Grapple Blade, new weapons and consumables A new Grapple Blade item, which functions identically to a grappler, where it draws players to their intended location and propels them towards it, has now been added. However, the new item also features a close-ranged attack in which an adjacent opponent is eliminated by spinning the blade. In addition, eight new weapons are introduced in Chapter 5 Season 1 along with a Cluster Clinger throwable explosive. Further more, a Ballistic Shield item has also been added to the game, which includes a pistol to help you defend yourself. You can use the the shield while shooting the pistol at the same time. The Ballistic Shield has infinite Health, but it can only withstand so much damage before it’ll temporarily be knocked from in front of you As is customary with each new season, a new consumable item called FlowBerry has also been added. It will recover a bit of your and your nearby teammates’ Shield. FlowBerries are best eaten before a jump, as they also grant you and your nearby teammates a temporary low-gravity effect (with fall damage immunity). Moreover, significant changes have now been made to the consumable items like Med Kits and Shield Potions. Both restore the same amount of stats as before, but the way they do it is different. They now start restoring immediately, and you can now move slowly while they restore. However, you won’t be able to cancel once you start restoring with these items, so use them wisely. Cars locker, SUV and more The new season brings a new way to build and customize your own car to ride around the Battle Royale island. Starting off, a new SUV called Grandeur Trailsmasher has been added to the island for you to take on a spin. Additionally, as a Battle Pass reward, players will be able to unlock a Scorpion car body and its decals to modify the vehicle before you take it for a ride around the map. Moreover, players will now be able to use Rocket League vehicles in Fortnite along with their decals, given they’re using the same Epic Games account to play Fortnite. A new feature this time around is Cars, which is a new section in players’ Lockers. Cars are built with three new types of Locker items: Car Bodies, Decals, and Wheels. All players have been granted the OEM Wheels from Rocket League in their Locker with the update. Enter a Sports Car in Fortnite Battle Royale or an applicable creator-made island, then watch it turn into your equipped Car. The Sports Car will keep the look of your equipped Car the entire match, even if you exit it and someone else enters it. New augments After a month long absence, Augments make a triumphant return to Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1. The new season will add 27 new Reality Augments to the game, each of which perfectly ties in with the items and features introduced. Check out our full list of Reality Augments and how to use them right here. Earn Society Medallions by defeating bosses Across the Island are five bosses: Oscar, Nisha, Montague, Valeria, and also Peter Griffin from Family Guy. Each boss will drop a Society Medallion once defeated. Keep a Medallion in your inventory for your Shield to regenerate over time. The more Society Medallions in your inventory, the more Shield that will regenerate with each tick. You can’t get to the top without making enemies on the way – if you have a Society Medallion in your inventory, you’ll be marked on opponents’ map, and the more Medallions you have, the more precise the radius of your exact location. Match Quests and new Reboot system At the beginning of each match, you’ll be presented a choice of three Match Quests that expire at the end of the match. Match Quests replace Daily Quests to give you the ability to pursue what you want to accomplish while having less distractions in battle. Match Quests are personal to each player, and squadmates cannot contribute to their progress. You will have Bonus Goals that reset each day to reward you additional XP for completing Match Quests. Furthermore, Reboot Vans have received a new feature where if you’re reviving a teammate and accidentally move out of range, the revive timer will slowly go down instead of hard reset. Rebooting works the same way, however the reboot timer will slowly go down if you move out of range, not hard reset. Also, only one squad can use each Reboot Van at a time. If a squad eliminates or scares away the current squad, they can continue the current reboot timer to quickly reboot their teammate.

The LEGO mode, in which players will have the ability to customize their own characters into their LEGO versions and navigate an open survival world, has been among the most anticipated additions to Chapter 5. In addition, a new Rocket Racing mode has also been added, allowing players to drive their Rocket League vehicles and compete in competitive races around a track. Lastly, players will be able to play a music themed mode known as Festival, wherein they will be required to coordinate button presses with the rhythmic patterns of tracks by Lady Gaga, Linkin Park, and other notable artists, starting off with The Weeknd, who will perform at launch of the game mode. Miscellaneous updates While the core features were added and removed from Fortnite, several miscellaneous updates were also made in Chapter 5 Season 1. They are: Enhanced animations and element physics. – Motion Matching and Procedural Layering added to all platforms. – New tournaments added in Competitive mode. – Trailsmashers, Sports Cars and Cluster Clingers can’t be used in Competitive playlists. – That’s everything you need to know about Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1 update!

How to get Snowball Launcher Fortnite weapon in Chapter 4 – Dexerto
How to get Snowball Launcher Fortnite weapon in Chapter 4 Epic GamesEpic Games just released Winterfest 2022 for Fortnite, replacing the Rocket Launcher weapon with a Snowball Launcher – here’s how to get one. This year’s Winterfest celebrations in Fortnite bring bundles of cheer to the holiday season. Unwrapping 14 presents, for example, will grant players access to 17 different in-game items at no extra charge. Notably, Epic has already outlined what users can expect from at least two of those items – free outfits in the form of the Arctic Adeline and Sled Ready Guff Outfits. Previously vaulted tools have returned via Winterfest 2022 as well, namely Holiday Presents and Snowball Launchers. Here’s where to find a Snowball Launcher in Fortnite’s Winterfest At present, Fortnite users can pick up Snowball Launchers at locations that previously played host to regular Rocket Launchers. But players may find the likes of Brutal Bastion and Faulty Splits the best places to access this particular weapon, given the amount of loot that typically spawns in these locales. Of course, scouring each area before other players close in may offer the best chances of getting lucky with a Snowball Launcher pickup. Epic Games originally added the Snowball Launcher to Fortnite during Season 2, allowing fans to experiment with the seasonal explosive weapon for a limited period of time. It doesn’t deal as much damage as its more explosive counterparts, yet the Snowball Launcher isn’t anything to scoff at, either. The Chapter 4 Season 1 update also added other snow-based mechanics. In extra chilly locations like the Frosty Firs and Lonely Labs, hacking away at the ground with a pickaxe will allow players to create giant snowballs. Doing this action long enough will result in a snowball large enough to hide inside. Evidently, Fortnite Island is no longer safe for those who prefer warmer months.

Fortnite Chapter 4 teaser reveals Mr Beast, DOOM, My Hero Academia, & Witcher collabs – Dexerto
Fortnite Chapter 4 teaser reveals Mr Beast, DOOM, My Hero Academia, & Witcher collabs Epic GamesFortnite Chapter 4’s Fracture event teaser showcased a number of collabs including Mr Beast, Doom Slayer, My Hero Academia, and The Witcher. Fortnite’s newest season will start sometime around December 4 and information about what to expect is starting to release. The teaser for this new update shows off a wealth of new additions that will likely delight fans, as they will get to see some favorite characters making the jump into the multiverse. Whether you’re after My Hero Academia’s most exuberant hero or a grumpy old Witcher, it seems like there’s something for everyone in this upcoming makeover for the iconic game. Fortnite Chapter 4 teases DOOM, Mr Beast, and Witcher collabs. As the event went live, fans wasted no time in collecting screenshots of the new additions to the game. Names like Mr Beast and Geralt of Rivia are at the top of the list, but the current images are far from the final product. Other notable Fortnite teasers include Doom Slayer, The Incredible Hulk, and even a pickaxe that very closely resembles All Might from My Hero Academia. Mr Beast got his own little feature in which he can be seen falling through space and heading to the remixed version of the Fortnite island that players will get to touch down on when Fracture goes live. These are just a few early hints at what the new Fortnite season will hold, but there’s no doubt that Epic Games has more in store that they haven’t clued fans into yet. While all of this is very exciting, it’s important to remember that there will likely be downtime as the devs prepare the world to launch into a whole new era.

Here’s when each vehicle will be active in Fortnite Season OG: Hotfix v27.00: Season 5 – Shopping Cart and All Terrain Kart – Releases on November 9 – Hotfix v27.00: Season 6 – Quadcrasher and Driftboard – Releases on November 9 – Hotfix v27.10: Seasons 7 & 8 – X-4 Stormwing and Pirate Cannon – Releases on November 16 – Hotfix v27.11: Seasons 9 & X – The Baller – Releases on November 23 – On the other hand, cars and bikes have been vaulted from the game as players travel back in time when they did not exist. OG Chapter 1 weapons and items are back The OG Assault Rifle, Pump Shotgun, Hunting Rifle, and many other iconic weapons of the game’s early seasons are all available once again in Fortnite Season OG. Instead of the updated Chapter 2 models, these weapons stick to the tried-and-true designs employed in the OG days of the game. Moreover, with each hotfix, newer weapons and items will be unvaulted every week which will add an assortment of a plethora of items to the loot pool. They are: Hotfix v27.00: Season 5 – Assault Rifle, Pump Shotgun, Hunting Rifle, Damage Trap, Grappler, and Boogie Bomb – Releases on November 9 – Hotfix v27.00: Season 6 – Double Barrel Shotgun, Clinger, Six Shooter, Chiller Trap, Port-a-Fortress and Mounted Turrets – Releases on November 9 – Hotfix v27.10: Seasons 7 & 8 – Flint-Knock Pistol, Minigun, Quad Launcher, Poison Dart Trap, Itemized Glider Redeploy, and Buried Treasure map item – Releases on November 16 – Hotfix v27.11: Seasons 9 & X – Heavy Sniper Rifle, Proximity Grenade Launcher, Air Strike, Junk Rift, Storm Flip and Jetpack – Releases on November 23 – However, the recently introduced Chapter 4 weapons are moved to the vault, which provides players with the chance to utilize an extensive assortment of iconic Fortnite items and weapons. Modern movement mechanics to remain Fortnite has confirmed that players will have the ability to Sprint, Slide, and Mantle during Season OG, which will take place on the Chapter 1 island. Players did not have access to these mechanics earlier in 2018, which caused the game to move more slowly than it does presently. A significant difference in movement mechanisms, however, is that players will not have the ability to swim on the Season OG island, similar to when they were previously eliminated upon touching a body of water in Chapter 1. Battle Stars return Fortnite’s Battle Stars are coming back after being vaulted in the game’s late Chapter 2 timeframe. These stars provide players with large sums of XP that can be used to advance through your OG Battle Pass more quickly. In addition, these will be the focus of quests, with players having to seek down hidden Battle Stars all across the island. New Ranked season and Ranked Cups To facilitate the short season of Fortnite OG, advancement through the Ranked Mode will occur more rapidly in the upper and middle ranks. In addition to experiencing marginally quicker increases to their rank progression indicator, players who are eliminated early in a match will incur lighter penalties. Moreover, players will be required to complete Ranked Urgent Quests when they jump out of the Battle Bus and have a chance to unlock the Chapter 1-inspired Ranker’s Tags Back Bling by completing just one Ranked Urgent Quest during Fortnite OG. The Ranker’s Tags will display the color of the highest rank you’ve reached this Season similar to prior rewards. However this time around, a new competitive event called Ranked Cups will also bring an opportunity for players to battle it out for free cosmetic rewards. In both Battle Royale and Zero Build, players can choose to compete against other players of the same rank either as a team, a duo, or on their own. You can now queue as a Solo Fill player and be matched with other Solo Fill players in Duos and Squads events. To unlock the Competitor’s Skyblades, you must score at least 75 points in any Ranked Cup session between November 9 and November 12, and in any session between November 23 and November 26, you must score at least 75 points, respectively to get the Competitor’s Time Brella. Miscellaneous updates With general content updates, several bugs and fixes were also made to the made, including the competitive, Creative and Save the World (STW) game modes. Here are some of the changes: Added four new tournaments for Season OG. – Grenade Launcher, Rocket Launcher, Quad Launcher, Grenade, Shockwave Grenade, Proximity Grenade Launcher, Remote Explosives, Air Strike, Junk Rift, Storm Flip, X-4 Stormwing are not included in competitive tournaments. – Free The Re-OG Lobby Track reward granted to all players. – Item Shop reverted back to Chapter 1 layout. – That’s everything you need to know about Fortnite Chapter 4 Season OG update!

A strange plaque containing the name “Kado Thorne”and an image of a crescent moon insignia has sparked widespread speculation after being sent to content creators, alongside the recent teasers hinting at an upcoming heist theme. Here’s what they imply and what we know about them so far. Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 3 is approaching its conclusion on August 25, 2023, and players are already looking forward to what Season 4 will bring. Epic Games is well-known for teasing every new season with numerous teasers and merchandise sent to content creators before revealing too much lore to the community. Similarly, in an enigmatic move, Epic has begun teasing the upcoming season by projecting an astral eclipse surrounded by a spiral in the Season 3 island’s sky. Furthermore, Fortnite content creators are receiving mysterious plaques with a message signed by a character named “Kado Thorne” and an image of a red crescent insignia. Moreover, Epic Games have started dropping teasers that hint at an upcoming heist theme with the words “Are you in?”. Here’s everything we know so far about what these terms mean and what they may imply for the upcoming season of Fortnite. Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 4’s Kado Thorne and Eclipse teasers explained Fortnite content creators in Brazil, Germany, and the United States have already begun receiving shipments from Epic Games regarding Season 4. The package includes a black plaque with a crimson crescent moon insignia and a card that reads, “Thank you. For the addition to my collection.” and signed by an entity named Kado Thorne. According to well-known content creator SquatingDog, Kado Thorne stole his Lego Vespa figurine and substituted it with a plaque and a note indicating that the entity wishes to “add it to their collection.” While there has been no official confirmation, the community seems to believe that Kado Thorne is the primary antagonist of the upcoming season. Multiple credible sources have speculated that Kado Thorne could be a Battle Pass character in the upcoming Season 4 and is a collector by nature. During Chapter 4 Season 3 Snapshot Quests, players have been tasked with collecting items such as a Chalice, Coral Buddies, and Refined Kinetic Ore, all of which point to a collector with an eye on these items. However, a recent teaser posted by Fortnite creators confirm that Kado Thorne is indeed a new character and will be a new boss as well as a Battle Pass skin in Chapter 4 Season 4. The character also features the eclipse in their design, also seen in the plaques, which seems to be the insignia of an upcoming faction to the island. Moreover, several character teasers were posted by Fortnite on social media and were sent out to content creators which might be potential Battle Pass skins in Chapter 4 Season 4. While their official names have not been decrypted, except for Diamond Dealer, above mentioned are the codenames that the community has bestowed upon the characters. Latest Fortnite Season 4 teasers reveal confirmed spy/heist theme Fortnite has released a new in-game teaser image, leading to fresh speculation among the player base. Famous leakers HYPEX and ShiinaBR, among others, saw the image on the updated profile photo of Fortnite’s official X account and multiple other sources. In the teaser image, players could make out many lasers firing against a red background that featured the Season 4 release date and the message in the description that says, “Are you in?”. As a result of the teaser, rumors began circulating that the upcoming season would have a spy/heist theme, similar to Chapter 2 Season 2. Fortnite has since released another teaser image confirming that the heist theme is back featuring a floor blueprint image reminiscent of Chapter 2 Season 2 with a description that says “Cameras, guards, vaults and the best team in the business.” Moreover, the co-founder of Epic Games confirmed that the upcoming season will be centered around Heist. Moreover, a new teaser was sent to content creators on August 21st, which shows the upcoming POI titled “Relentless Retreat” which is rumored to be the base of the new faction coming to Fortnite. The teaser was accompanied by the words, “I’m putting together a team, and a friend we have in common says you’d be perfect for this job. Can you share the information with your group?” Following the first one, several more teasers were sent to content creators in red which show the two new locations from a distance as well as a secret basement housing the Eclipse insignia and some artifacts. Alongside the locations, weapons coming to the latest Fortnite season have also been revealed which follow the return of Midas’ Drum Gun and brings three new items/weapons to the loot pool. These include a Heist Bag, Rocket Ram Item and Briefcase Turret. In addition, a forthcoming Shield Breaker EMP Grenade was hinted in one of the content creator-revealed teasers and will be added to the loot pool in the upcoming season. The item is rumored to be incredibly useful for disabling an enemy’s shield and preventing healing for a brief period of time. Moreover, it is also now confirmed that Zyg & Choppy’s Raygun from Chapter 2 Season 7 is returning to the game as a Mythic weapon that players can use in the upcoming season. Recent teasers also suggest that a new Nitro Fang vehicle will be added to the island alongside the existing vehicles in the game. Additionally, players have finally received the title of the upcoming season to be Last Resort. While these are solely speculations made through teasers, more will be revealed in the coming days as Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 3 concludes and players complete their Battle Pass.

Titled Last Resort, the new season brings back the game’s beloved heist theme. The official cinematic trailer for the season was released yesterday, giving players a sneak peek at the upcoming gameplay. In addition, a number of new weapons, POIs, and a new Battle Pass was shown off, which are in the game now that the update has arrived. Moreover, the Ahsoka Tano skin, which introduces yet another Star Wars collaboration to Fortnite, was the trailer’s highlight and a major surprise for players. Now just before the update hits, Epic Games has released a gameplay trailer which boasts all the new additions coming to the game. While there’s a lot to discover, here are the patch notes for Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 4. Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 4 downtime details Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 4 was released on Friday, August 25, 2023, at 2 AM PT / 4 AM ET / 10 AM BST. Servers are slowly going live in different regions and platforms, so you should be able to jump back in soon! Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 4 patch notes New POIs Sanguine Suites, Eclipsed Estate, and Relentless Retreat have been added to the map as three new heist-themed POIs in the latest Fortnite season. These locations are populated with henchmen, bosses, and the season’s primary antagonist, Kado Thorne. The trailers depicted players infiltrating one of these locations, engaging the guards with a variety of new weapons, and attempting to steal the treasures. Several players also discovered easter eggs, such as Bunker Jonesy being imprisoned in one of the POI’s cells, as well as a vault containing gold and mythic weaponry from previous seasons. The three locations replace several areas across the map like Lonely Labs, The Citadel and Watery Watch landmark. Ahsoka Tano secret skin Epic Games and Disney have had a healthy relationship when it comes to collaborating together and bringing characters from the Star Wars franchise into the game. Similarly, it is confirmed that Chapter 4 Season 4 Battle Pass owners will receive the Ahsoka Tano skin as a bonus reward and will be unlocked by completing certain set of quests. This comes just days after the premiere of a new Disney+ series about the character that depicts Ahsoka’s survival during the post-Empire era. New Battle Pass skins As usual, Chapter 4 Season 4 introduces a new Battle Pass with a new faction, antagonist, and an Icon series skin included for the first time. The Chapter 4 Season 4 Battle Pass includes the Khaby Lame Icon series outfit, Kado Thorne, Nolan Chance, Piper Pace, Fish Thicc, Mae, and Antonia skins. Players can purchase the Battle Pass for 950 V-Bucks or get it as a bonus reward with their ongoing Fortnite Crew subscription. New weapons A new season of Fortnite means new weapons for players to use against their opponents on the island and Chapter 4 Season 4 brings the best loot that will be extremely useful while carrying out a heist. The new weapons include Rocket Ram, Infiltrator Pump Shotgun, Scoped Burst SMG, Twin Mag Assault Rifle, and Business Turret. In addition to these, a new Heist Bag item was also added with the update which will have a chance to contain a Crash Pad Jr. (new item), Remote Explosive (unvaulted), Rocket Ram, ammo, healing items, and more. In addition, a number of Mythic weapons from previous seasons will reappear in the upcoming season as part of Kado Thorne’s treasure. Kit’s Charge Shotgun and Shockwave Launcher, Midas’ Drum Gun, Ocean’s Bottomless Chug Jug, TNTina’s Ka-Boom Bow, The Foundation’s MK-Seven AR, Gunnar’s Stinger SMG, Zyg and Choppy’s Ray Gun, are among these weapons. Moreover, a bunch of other weapons from the past have also been unvaulted which include Remote Explosive, Suppressed Sniper Rifle and Suppressed Pistol. Additionally, several weapons that were seen in the trailers like the Scoped Burst SMG, EMP Shield Grenade and Sticky Grenade Launcher will be added later to the game in a future update. New vehicle Every Fortnite season brings a new way for players to move around the island and Last Resort follows the same suit. A new car called Nitro Fang has been added to the island and can be found easily near the heisted locations around the island. While the base model may look like ordinary vehicles, some of them are disguised as pizza delivery cars and are incredibly fast to escape the Thorne buildings. The vehicle also has a similar handbrake feature to that of a Nitro Drifter that allows players to make shard turns with ease without losing momentum. New Reality Augments The latest Fortnite season adds six new Reality Augments that will come in extremely handy while carrying out a heist on the island. The six reality Augments and the advantage they provide during gameplay are as follows: SNIPER STRIKER – Snipers give Siphon upon damaging enemies. – PISTOL SALVO – Your Pistols will have a reduced fire rate but increased damage. – FAST FISHER – Swim faster and instantly loot fishing spots when you swim through them. – AMMO DROP – Not only grants ammo, but also makes it so that enemies drop more ammo than usual. – FIRST SHOTGUN – Your Shotguns will deal increased damage on the first shot. – ON THE GO BAG – ANY container you open will have an item that would be in a Heist Bag. – Alongside the new Augments, several from the previous Fortnite seasons have also returned. Check out our full list of Reality Augments in Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 4 for more info. Medals are back! Last Resort brings back the medals from Chapter 2 Season 1 where players received XP as constant progression throughout the match by completing smaller milestones. However, they have returned with a fresh take called Survivor Medals. Survivor Medals require players to complete Survivor Quests during a Battle Royale and Zero Build match. To upgrade to the next medal, players need to complete these quests that challenges them to outlast a fixed number of opponents while getting a certain number of eliminations. There are seven medal rarities, with ten medal upgrades per rarity available in the game. The higher the medal rarity, the harder the Quests. Moreover, the most expert survivors will get the Mythic 1 medal. As soon as players complete the Common 1 medal, they’ll unlock the Prized Llama Back Bling for free. As they climb up the top of each rarity, they will unlock different styles of the back bling. New Bosses and Guards Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 4 adds guards and bosses to the newly added heisted locations. These NPCs are not friendly and will attack as soon as they spot you. Moreover, the Kado Thorne boss randomly spawns in any one of the three Thorne buildings and is quite tough to defeat. The latest addition to the game are Forecast Towers which are spread throughout the island. Players can head over to one of the Forecast Tower, eliminate guards and steal the keycard from them to reveal info on storm circles. Once you scan the tower using the keycard, your team will be able to see any future storm circles during the match. New Ranked season Last Resort also kicks off a new Ranked season for competitive players. This update kicks off Season 1 Ranked, as was announced earlier with the launch of Season Zero. Similarly to Season Zero, players will need to play at least one Ranked match in Chapter 4 Season 4 to have their ranks kick off (individually for Zero Build and Battle Royale). However, the overall performance in the first match does not determine their initial rank placement. Rather, it reveals their rank and then updates the rank progress bar based on player performance in a single match. The new Ranked season also brings eight new rewards that players can get for free by completing Urgent Quests. Miscellaneous Updates With general content updates, several bugs and fixes were also made to the made, including the competitive, Creative and Save the World (STW) game modes. Here are the changes: Added six new tournaments for Season 4. – Kit’s Shockwave Launcher, Shockwave Grenades, Nitro Fang and On The Go Bag Reality Augment not included in competitive tournaments. – Added new STW pack – That’s everything you need to know about Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 4 update!

Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 4 leaks – Everything we know so far – Dexerto
Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 4 leaks – Everything we know so far Epic Games / GGMan_1999Fortnite Season 4 Chapter 4 is rapidly approaching, and players are excited about the confirmed Heist theme disclosed in official teasers. However, numerous sources are posting a variety of rumors regarding the new content that players may receive once the update is released. Here’s everything we currently know about the upcoming season. As players wait for Epic Games‘ disclosure of more information about the upcoming Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 4, the excitement is at an all-time high. On August 20th, Epic published a teaser image that confirms a heist-themed season. The next Fortnite update is expected to arrive on Friday, August 25th, as players work to complete their Battle Pass and Break the Curse quests. While early teasers posted by content creators focused on Kado Thorne and an upcoming Eclipse on the island, it has been speculated that the lore Slone has been referring to in voice quests may not be relevant to the theme teased. Here’s everything we know so far about Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 4 based on leaks, teasers, and rumors. Contents Heist Theme and new bosses – New weapons – New Agency-style POI and Radio Tower – Shakedown & more mechanics return – New vehicles – Everything we know about Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 4 Heist Theme and new bosses According to the official teaser posted by Fortnite on X and other social media platforms, Season 4 Chapter 4 will have a heist-related theme. The shared teaser image depicts a red blueprint of a building with multiple easter eggs concealed within it and is similar to that of Chapter 2 Season 2. In addition to the teaser image, Epic included a caption that reads, “Cameras, guards, vaults, and the best team in the business. Are you in?” These lines alone strongly suggest a new season that will feature gameplay similar to that of Chapter 2 Season 2, with vaults, henchmen, new bosses roaming around POIs, and a new faction emerging in a manner similar to that of The Agency and the Imagined Order. Another teaser posted on August 21 depicts the silhouette of a new boss, which is rumored to be Kado Thorne or an entirely new enemy who plays a crucial role in the upcoming faction. The teaser also asks, “Light-fingered or perhaps a more elegant weapon?” which hints at the return of suppressed weapons. New weapons According to leaked sources, the upcoming Chapter 4 Season 4 will bring back weapons from previous Fortnite seasons such as the Drum Gun, Stinger SMG, Pulse Rifle, C4 Explosives, Ray Gun, MK-Seven AR, Havoc Pump, TNTina’s Explosive Bow, and many others. Since the Jujutsu Kaisen update, well-known leakers, such as iFireMonkey and EgyptianLeaker, have hinted at these. These weapons will be of Exotic or Mythic rarity and you can retrieve them from vaults or by defeating a number of bosses. In addition, a Backpack Minigun, which was earlier hinted at in Chapter 4 Season 3 game files, could also make an appearance if the leaks are accurate. New Agency-style POI and Radio Tower Several leakers and players anticipate an Agency-style POI from Chapter 2 Season 2 to appear in the upcoming Fortnite season, based on official teases which might be the headquarters of the heist faction. Players are also implying that the crescent moon structure will play an important role in indicating where the next POI may be located on the island. According to a user, the structure of the teased schematic for the POI resembles that of The Citadel and may combine The Agency and the Chapter 4 location. Nonetheless, a number of other speculations suggest that it’ll be near Brutal Bastion, where two mountains create a similar crescent. In addition, a Radio Tower POI was hinted at in the Jujutsu Kaisen collaboration trailer, where players expect to face a Highcard-style boss in order to obtain access to a nearby vault and some mythic weapons in the game. However, with the release of new teasers on August 21st, several content creators are being sent cryptic images of an upcoming POI teased in the blueprint called “Relentless Retreat” which might be the rumored HQ of the new faction arriving on the island. Shakedown & more mechanics return With the heist theme arriving in the next Fortnite season, players anticipate the return of Shakedown, a popular gameplay feature from Chapter 2 Season 2. The feature permitted players to determine the location of a downed Henchman’s allies or an opponent’s teammate by simply shaking them. The rumored feature will fit the season’s theme by allowing players to see the location of other henchmen as they plan a heist at a given point of interest. Popular speculation also points to the return of disguise phone booths in the heist POIs, allowing players to disguise themselves as henchmen before attacking the boss. New vehicles The upcoming Fortnite season also brings back and adds new vehicles to the island that players can use to flee from a heist and which are rumored to be armed this time around. Chapter 3 Season 2 saw the arrival of armored IO vehicles on the island, which players used to engage in combat with their opponents and IO forces. However, in Chapter 4 Season 4, players are rumored to receive Armored Cars, Choppers with Launchers, and more. Despite the inclusion of new vehicles on the island, there are rumors that the existing vehicles around Mega City will remain and not be removed.

Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 3 patch notes: Jungle biome, Transformers crossover, grind vines – Dexerto
Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 3 patch notes: Jungle biome, Transformers crossover, grind vines Epic GamesFortnite Chapter 4 Season 3 has arrived, bringing WILD features to the game including rideable raptors and new weapons to discover, so here are the patch notes. The arrival of a new Fortnite season is always an exciting time for fans of the long-running battle royale, but this WILDS season is looking particularly interesting as a jungle-themed biome is taking over the map with loads of new areas to explore. With rideable raptors to tame, a new Kinetic Boomerang weapon to take down your opponents, and a Transformers crossover to unlock, you can find the Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 3 patch notes below. Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 3 patch notes A jungle biome has taken over the map Staying true to this season’s WILDS theme, a new jungle biome has taken over the center of the Fortnite map, providing loads of new areas to explore as well as plenty of jungle-themed features to discover. Don’t worry, though, as most of your favorite locations from last season like MEGA City are sticking around – at least for now! Get ready for a Transformers crossover Every season of Fortnite kicks off with a major crossover nowadays, and this season fans are getting a Transformers: Rise of the Beasts collaboration. As well as an Optimus Prime skin appearing in the Battle Pass, there’s an Optimus Primal skin available to purchase in the Item Shop and a brand-new Cybertron Cannon weapon to try out on your opponents. You can see the full contents of the new Battle Pass here. Rideable raptors have arrived It’s been rumored for years now, but with the arrival of Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 3 you’ll finally be able to jump on the back of a wild raptor and ride across the Island in Jurassic style – but watch out for their bite! Alternatively, you can “nurture” one of the raptor eggs scattered across the map and when it hatches it will automatically be yours. New weapons to add to your loadout There are several new weapons to try out in Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 3: Thermal DMR – Features a scope with thermal vision. – Flapjack Rifle – Good for targeting enemies and structures, features a spinning magazine. – Kinetic Boomerang – Can be thrown and recalled, hitting enemies in its path. – Cybertron Cannon – Launches a powerful explosive projectile. – Wildwasp Jar – Throw a swarm of Wildwasps at your enemies to target them. – Some of these weapons will appear frequently across the Island while others like the Cybertron Cannon will be a little harder to obtain, so do your best to find them all. Grind vines have taken over the Island Grind rails were a popular feature in Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 2, so the good news is that they’re sticking around – except for this WILDS season, they’re being rebranded as grind vines. They’ll function in pretty much the exact same way, so you can still change directions and shoot your weapons while riding along them. These plants can be used to your advantage Three new plants have appeared across the Island that can be shot at to get the upper hand in battle. There’s the Bomb Flower that will explode on impact, the Stink Flower that will unleash a cloud of toxic gas on any unfortunate souls nearby, and the Slurp Plant that will fill up your health and shield when hit. New Reality Augments are available to roll There are several new Reality Augments arriving with Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 3: Primal Companion – Gain thermal vision and regenerate Health while riding animals. – Wildwasp Weaponry – Receive some Wildwasp Jars, and gain an additional one with every elimination. – Sprint Lines – Gain a Slap effect upon using grind vines, grind rails, ziplines, or Ascenders. – Shell Slide – Gain Shotgun shells while sliding. – Swift Shotgun Reload – Your Shotguns will reload faster. – Reckless Rifle Reload – Your Assault Rifles will reload significantly faster when the magazine is empty. – Medium Ammo Acquired – Instantly gain medium ammo, then gain more when you open containers. – These new Augments will join a roster of existing Augments, so there will be plenty to play around with during the season.

Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 2 leaks: New weapons, Battle Pass & MEGA theme – Dexerto
Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 2 leaks: New weapons, Battle Pass & MEGA theme Epic GamesFortnite Chapter 4 Season 2 is almost here, so we’ve rounded up everything we know so far including the leaks, rumors, and official teasers that have been circulating. After shaking things up with a brand new map and weapon pool for the launch of Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 1 last year, it’s time for some more big changes with Season 2 set to arrive in early March 2023. Although there’s not much in the way of confirmed information, Epic Games have been teasing the new season with posters and in-game quests, while leakers have uncovered some very interesting details. With the new season launching on Friday, March 10, 2023, here’s everything we know about Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 2 so far including leaks, rumors, and teasers. Contents What is the Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 2 theme? It’s been reported by several prominent leakers that Fortnite Chapter 4 season 2 will have a futuristic ‘Neo-Tokyo’ theme, which will be a big change from the medieval castle theming of the current season. As part of this new theme, there will reportedly be a Tokyo-themed location on the map as well as an updated version of Lucky Landing, the fan-favorite POI that appeared in the very first chapter of Fortnite. This rumored theme appears to be backed up by the first official teaser for the new season, which was shared on Fortnite’s Twitter on March 7, 2023. It also looks like the new season will be called ‘MEGA’ based on the #FortniteMEGA hashtag featured in the tweet. Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 2 Battle Pass skin leaks Leakers have reported that Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 2 will feature an Attack on Titan crossover, with Eren Yeager appearing in the Battle Pass alongside several original skins with futuristic outfits. You can see the rumored Battle Pass lineup here. We won’t embed the tweet in case you want to avoid being spoiled, but it’s worth pointing out that these are all skins that have previously been featured in surveys distributed by Epic Games, so the images of them aren’t technically leaks – they’ve just been collated into a rumored lineup. Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 2 collaborations and crossover leaks One of the biggest crossovers expected to arrive in Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 2 is Attack on Titan. As well as an Eren Yeager skin in the Battle Pass, there will reportedly be a ‘Waist Grappler’ Mythic item. Another rumored crossover is Resident Evil, which would make sense with the new Resident Evil 4 remake coming out in March. It’s been reported that Leon and Claire skins will appear in the item shop. It’s also been reported that another Star Wars crossover is in the works with Lightsabers returning alongside a new Force Powers feature, although there’s no word on which skins could appear this time. Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 2 new weapon leaks Each season of Fortnite shakes up the weapon pool with a mix of new and returning guns. Chapter 4 Season 2 looks to be no different, with leakers highlighting a new pistol and a new shotgun being added. It’s also been reported that a katana weapon will debut this season, which would fit in with the rumored theme, as well as several new Reality Augments. Perhaps even more exciting than new weapons, though, is information about a first-person mode. This has been rumored for a while, and according to leaker ShiinaBR, it will be released with the new season. While these Twitter accounts are usually very reliable, all of this information is subject to change when Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 2 arrives, so take everything with a pinch of salt for now. We’ll keep this page updated when more information is revealed but in the meantime, check out some of our other Fortnite guides below: How to win Fortnite | How to get free Fortnite skins | Best landing spots | Best weapons in Fortnite | How to claim Capture Points | How to ride animals | All Exotic weapon locations | How to play Fortnite split screen | Fortnite NPC locations | How to level up fast in Fortnite | Reality Augments guide | Best Fortnite Deathrun codes | How to Tactical Sprint in Fortnite | Best Fortnite skins

Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 2 map changes: New biome, MEGA City & more – Dexerto
Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 2 map changes: New biome, MEGA City & more Epic GamesFortnite Chapter 4 Season 2 is now live with a brand new biome being introduced on the Island, so here’s everything you need to know about all the changes to the Fortnite map. If there’s one thing we can always expect with a new Fortnite season, it has to be regular map changes. With the release of Chapter 4 Season 2, there are quite a few new additions for you to experience across the Island. Apart from new POIs and changes to existing ones, this update has introduced a completely new biome to the game with a futuristic theme. Keep reading to find out all the map changes in Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 2. Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 2 new map The main change on the map in Chapter 4 Season 2 is the introduction of the new biome in the southeastern region of the Island. While it was previously covered with grasslands from the Faulty Splits POI onward, it has now been taken over by the new biome featuring cherry blossom trees and ‘teal-tinted grass.’ Additionally, you can also find several Pagoda-styled buildings in this new biome. However, the main attraction on the map this Season has to be the MEGA City POI. The reason for this is that the new location features grind rails that you can use to skate around the buildings while also being able to use your weapons on the go. It seems safe to say that MEGA City is probably going to become a hotspot for combat and fierce battles with this new mechanic. Fortnite Season 2 new POIs Here is the full list of confirmed new POIs on the Island in Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 2: Mega City (replaced Faulty Splits) – Steamy Springs (edge of the new biome, southeast of Frenzy Fields) – Knotty Net (New biome, east of MEGA City) – Kenjutsu Crossing (New biome, southeast corner of the Island) – While these four new POIs have been confirmed at the time of Chapter 4 Season 2’s release, it’s likely that future mid-season patches and updates will introduce more changes to the Island.

Fortnite Chapter 4 leak reveals Titanfall feature coming in future update – Dexerto
Fortnite Chapter 4 leak reveals Titanfall feature coming in future update Epic GamesAccording to a recent leak, a future Fortnite update may add wall running and other Titanfall-like movement mechanics to the battle royale. To the delight of many a player, Epic Games has experimented with movement quite a bit in past Fortnite updates. The advent of Chapter 3, for example, introduced Spider-Man to the world of Fortnite, which, in turn, let loose web-swinging abilities. Notably, that very same content rollout also added sliding mechanics to the mix. The ability to shoot and build while sliding only bolstered the feature’s overall utility. And now it seems another new movement upgrade will alter the way players maneuver across the map. Leak suggests wall running is coming to Fortnite Reliable Fortnite leaker HYPEX recently reported that three new movement mechanics are in the works for Fortnite. Wall running counts as one such feature, with jump sliding and double jumping rounding out the list. The leaker that while they’re unsure about what the jump slide will entail, it’s possible double jumping could constitute an “upcoming Augment/Perk.” Understandably, fans appear most interested in news that wall running could arrive with a future update. “By the nine… They’re turning Fortnite into Titanfall,” one Twitter user replied to the above tweet. “Yes, I would f—ing love wall running,” another Fortnite player typed in all caps. One Titanfall fan posited the jump slide mechanic could work similarly to the bunnyhopping feature in Titanfall 2. Whether or not these supposed additions will go live during Fortnite Chapter 4 isn’t yet known. It’s also worth noting that Epic Games itself has yet to confirm the veracity of this particular leak.

Fortnite Chapter 4’s launch is so popular even devs are getting kicked from servers – Dexerto
Fortnite Chapter 4’s launch is so popular even devs are getting kicked from servers Twitch: FortniteFortnite Chapter 4’s launch is apparently so popular, even the developers can’t even join the game’s servers. During a live stream to promote the launch, the official Fortnite Twitch stream was stuck in the loading screen like millions of other players, waiting their turn to see the new content. Fortnite uses Chapters as waves of content releases for the game, with mega shifts in the game’s lore to boot. On December 4, Fortnite Chapter 4 launched, bringing millions back to the game. It has been marketed to include a brand new map, a newly revamped battle pass, and of course new cosmetics. Not only that, but the developers also supposedly improved upon the in-game performance by upgrading to Unreal Engine 5.1. But the game’s immense popularity created issues, limiting players from joining in on the festivities. In a promotional effort to market Fortnite Chapter 4, the developers held a livestream on release day. After a little less than an hour of waiting at the title screen, those handling the official Fortnite Twitch account was immediately kicked out when attempting to log into the game. The error read “successfully logged out. Login Expired or Logged In Elsewhere”. They were then streamed the title screen for a solid 14 and a half hours, during which literally no gameplay was shown. Other Fortnite players shared their thoughts regarding the situation: “Well.. now you know there’s no special privileges in Fortnite,” one Reddit user joked. “Suffering from success,” another stated. Despite the issues that plagued its launch, many players are very eager to try out Fortnite Chapter 4 themselves. “The new engine update for the game looks pretty damn bonkers. I don’t care much for it but I kinda wanna download just to see it in action,” one player commented.

Fortnite Chapter 3 trees have an ‘auto-aim’ that nets easy kills – Dexerto
Fortnite Chapter 3 trees have an ‘auto-aim’ that nets easy kills Epic GamesThe Fortnite Chapter 3 update introduced towering trees that have been surprising players with how useful they can be by having features like an ‘auto-aim’ that can kill opponents. All trees in Fortnite are primarily used to harvest mats (materials) to build. This remains true for the large oak-looking plants that came to the Chapter 3 island but they do things no other trees can. From a combat perspective, players can utilize them to actually land and eliminate an enemy if they’re not paying attention to their surroundings. As you can see in the clip above, Fortnite’s trees in Chapter 3 automatically fall on anyone in close proximity to them, basically making them an auto-aim hit that deals 100 damage. To make Fortnite’s trees work for you, simply gun one down near an opponent and it will collapse onto them if they don’t react quick enough. “Pretty much anytime I see a player near a tree, I’ll shoot it and it falls on them.” one Fortnite player said, as more people are saying that they’ve adopted the strategy. It seems the Epic Games developers made this into a reproducible feature which some people claim to “always” work against the enemy closest to the timber. People have been surprised with how many uses these Chapter 3 trees have. Not only are they fun ways to secure a kill, they can also do wonders for people looking to get across water with blazing speeds. It’s not unlike Epic to add bizarre gameplay elements like this to mix up the traditional Fortnite formula and there’s bound to be more twists to explore in Chapter 3.

Fortnite Chapter 3 trailer leak reveals first look at new map – Dexerto
Fortnite Chapter 3 trailer leak reveals first look at new map Epic GamesAn explosive trailer for Fortnite Chapter 3 appears to have leaked early on TikTok, and it gives us what seems to be our first look at the new season’s map. We’re just days away from the beginning of Fortnite’s next big era, Chapter 3, and the leaks have already started, as a video that looks very much like a reveal trailer for Chapter 3 has been shared online. While it has been released early, it might not technically be a leak, as some people have claimed that this was actually an advert promoted by Epic Games on TikTok, which suggests that it was shared by accident. Either way, it’s got players excited about what’s to come once Chapter 2 bows out following the upcoming live event, The End. Fortnite Chapter 3 trailer leaks early Before we cover the video’s contents, a spoiler warning is in effect. Still here? OK, here we go. The trailer shows Agent Jonesy floating in the ocean, watching as the Island flips upside down, revealing a new map beneath it. This causes a tsunami, which could be a nice segue into downtime between chapters. Unsurprisingly, the new trailer has caused a lot of debate among Fortnite fans. Some have speculated that it marks the return of the Chapter 1 map, while others don’t believe it’s a real trailer – although plenty of reliable leakers have claimed it is. A video that was uploaded to the official Fortnite TikTok ad account has been leaked. I can confirm the video IS real, as the tiktok account @ that was spotted was the same one I got the BTS emote videos a while back. If you don’t want spoilers, it’s best to hop off twitter. — iFireMonkey (@iFireMonkey) December 2, 2021 We won’t be sharing the leaked trailer here out of respect for Epic Games and those who don’t want to be spoiled, as Chapter 3 is a pretty big deal, but it’s not that hard to find online if you simply can’t wait for it. If you’d rather avoid spoilers, it might be a good idea to stay away from social media until Chapter 3 begins on December 7 – or mute related words on Twitter. In the meantime, you can find everything we know so far about Fortnite Chapter 3 right here and keep up to date with the latest news over on our Fortnite home page.

Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 5 release date leaked ahead of Season 4 – Dexerto
Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 5 release date leaked ahead of Season 4 Epic GamesA release date leak suggests Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 5 will officially begin in the first week of December. Such information is presently making the rounds despite the fact that Epic Games has yet to confirm a launch date for Chapter 3 Season 4. However, Fortnite players expect the next major shift to begin in mid-September since the current Battle Pass concludes on September 17. The theme of Fortnite’s fourth season remains a mystery, as well. According to leakers, though, a Marvel crossover will not sit at the forefront as it did with Chapter 2 Season 4. Fortnite Season 5 release date reportedly leaked Industry insider Tom Henderson, best known for Battlefield and Call of Duty leaks, has apparently outed the due date for Fortnite’s upcoming fifth season. According to a post that Henderson shared this morning, Season 5 will kick off later this year on December 5. The timing of the report is especially interesting, since Epic Games has yet to confirm its launch plans for Season 4. As always, fans would do well to take uncorroborated information with a pinch of salt. Henderson’s reported December 2022 release date for Fortnite Season 5 does not sound too farfetched, however. Notably, Chapter 2 Season 5 went live across all platforms on December 2, 2020. And Chapter 3 debuted late last year on December 5, 2021. The real question, of course, is what the theme for Season 5 will entail. But since similar details about the next major update currently remain under lock and key, such information isn’t expected to surface for quite some time. Epic Games hasn’t confirmed as much but players expect Fortnite Season 4 to release on September 18.

Just like clockwork, a brand new Fortnite season has arrived! The theme for Chapter 3 Season 4 is Paradise, although this seems like a pretty strange choice given that a mysterious Chrome substance is currently taking over the Island. As well as changing the map by introducing new POIs and altering existing ones, this metallic substance can also be found as a Chrome Splash which allows players to phase through walls and ‘Chrome-ify’ themselves for extra movement abilities.

Well, aside from moving faster, you’ll also be immune to fall damage and be able to phase through walls. This could be a game-changer. New POIs including Herald’s Sanctum The map has been given an overhaul in Chapter 3 Season 4, with the Reality Tree corner now covered in a bright orange hue and a mysterious Chrome substance taking over the eastern side of the map.

You can see our roundup of all the map changes here. EvoChrome weapons make their debut A brand new duo of EvoChrome weapons have been added to the loot pool. Choose between the EvoChrome Shotgun for close-range damage or the EvoChrome Burst Rifle for long-distance takedowns. The best thing about these EvoChrome weapons is that their rarity will increase the more you damage opponents with them. You can find them in Chrome Chests hidden around the Island. Returning and unvaulted weapons The following weapons will be available to use from the beginning of Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 4: Sidearm Pistol – Prime Shotgun – Lever Action Shotgun – Rapid Fire SMG – Suppressed Submachine Gun – Ranger Assault Rifle – Hammer Assault Rifle – Designated Marksman Rifle (DMR) – Hunter Bolt-Action Sniper – Grenade – Firefly Jar – Harpoon Gun – Shadow Tracker – The Dub – Boom Sniper Rifle – Boogie Bomb – Shockwave Grenade – You can see the full list of unvalted and vaulted weapons here. The Port-A-Bunker replaces the Port-A-Fort The Port-A-Fort has been around for in Fortnite, but this season it’s being replaced with the Port-A-Bunker, a more durable version that’s got metal walls, a versatile ramp, doors, and defensive tires. Slide kick your opponents! Sliding has become an essential feature in Fortnite since it was added at the start of Chapter 3, and now it’s being modified with the ability to slide kick your enemies and knock them back. Keys lead to treasure… Keys have started popping up across the Island in Fortnite. You can find them in Chests if you’re lucky, and once you do, be sure to check out the map to see if there are any nearby Vaults that you can unlock. Some Vaults only require one Key while others need two Keys. All of these Vaults will have plenty of Chests and rare weapons inside, but as you’ve probably guessed, a two-Key Vault will be extra special.

There’s been some leaks and hints in the lead-up to give players an idea but with the update finally being released, we have a much better idea of what to expect in this season. Epic Games went all out at the turn of Chapter 3 and, while there wasn’t a live event for the season update, there’s plenty to look forward to during this season. Here’s everything we know about the Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 2 update. Contents Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 2 theme – What’s new in Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 2 – Bug Fixes in Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 2 – Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 2 theme The Fortnite Season 2 theme is Resistance, and based on the pre-season trailer, it is going to be an epic battle between the IO and the Seven. Additionally, it has also been confirmed that Doctor Strange will be teaming up with the Seven as they take on Dr. Slone and the IO. While Epic Games did ensure a certain level of secrecy for the theme of Season 2, it is safe to say that the Resistance is going to be very exciting for everyone. What’s new in Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 2 All Battle, No Building Thanks to the Resistance theme of Chapter 3 Season 2, the No Building LTM is now available in Fortnite. This means, for the next few days, you can choose to play this limited-time mode to sharpen your gunplay skills without having to engage in tense box fights. XP Beyond Battle Royale Epic Games has confirmed that Battle Royale is not going to be the only mode where you can earn XP. Fortnite Creators can now add and incorporate various accolades on custom maps available in the Creative mode. This will allow you to play different types of games in Fortnite while still earning XP to unlock that one Battle Pass skin that you have been craving for a while. New in-game mechanics Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 2 has been graced by the introduction of various in-game mechanics that the community had been asking for a long time. These mechanics and features include: Tactical Sprinting – Parkour – Wall climbing – Shoulder Bash to auto-open doors – Mantle to grab onto ledges and pull themselves up – Overshield to grant extra protection against incoming damage – Proximity Chat in Fortnite Creative – Doctor Strange joins the fight against IO After being teased by data miners for quite a while, Doctor Strange has finally arrived in Fortnite. Being the prime attraction of the Season 2 Battle Pass, Marvel fans have a terrific opportunity to grab the iconic character’s skin before the season ends on June 3, 2022. Apart from Doctor. Strange, a variety of other characters such as the Prowler, Gunnar, The Origin, and several others are also available in the Chapter 3 Season 2 Battle Pass. Weapon Vaults and Unvaults in Season 2 Like every other season update, Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 2 has also witnessed a bunch of weapons being vaulted and unvaulted. Here’s a list of all the unvaulted weapons: Drum Shotgun – Revolver – Thermal AR – Shockwaves – C4s – Thermal Fish – Here’s a list of all the vaulted items and weapons in Season 2: Heavy Shotgun – Machine Pistol – Flare Gun – Sticky Grenade – Various data miners have also suggested that a few more items could be stepping out of the vault soon. However, we cannot confirm whether these items will be available at any point in the current season or not. Here’s the list of all the items that might be unvaulted soon: LMG – Infantry Rifle – Heavy Sniper – Bug Fixes in Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 2 As always, a new update means Epic Games have a host of fixes for some of the most frustrating bugs that have been affecting the game, which will hopefully remove some pesky issues and improve the quality of life for fans of the game. The following fixes have been taken from the official Fortnite Trello board. Players rarely may find the Discover menu UI unresponsive when using a controller. It can be fixed by exiting and re-entering the Discover menu or switching tabs with the shoulder buttons. – Some players may find they are showing as being one quest short of completing a ‘Season Bonus Goals’ Milestone. Don’t worry! More season quests are on the way, and there will be more available than required to complete the Bonus Goals. – When using Performance Mode players may find the tree leaves have a lower resolution than intended. You can set “View Distance” to Epic to resolve this issue and make the Trees appear as expected. – Continuously holding the hotkey when building and, then double-tapping the edit button results in the key getting stuck and automatically placing build pieces. If players then switch to a weapon the weapon begins auto firing. However, you can work around this issue by simply opening your inventory or performing an emote. – So there you have it – that’s all you need to know about the Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 2 update. Needless to say, things are heating up on the island and it will be exciting to see how long the Seven’s Resistance lasts against the IO.

Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 2 Collision event recap: Season 3 teasers, I.O. Leader reveal – Dexerto
Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 2 Collision event recap: Season 3 teasers, I.O. Leader reveal The Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 2 Collision event was another stunning in-game experience where both The I.O. and The Resistance pulled out their signature weapons. Here’s everything that happened. Fortnite Season 2 started with one of the most exciting changes to the game since its inception: Zero Build mode. In lore, Slone took the ability to build away from players starting a war between The Resistance and The I.O. Throughout the season, Agent Jones and members of The Seven requested the player’s help with various missions. These led to numerous I.O. outposts being overtaken by the “good guys.” However, toward the end of the season, The I.O. erected a tower called The Collider. Housing the Zero Point, the I.O. intended to use the device to bring their leader to the current reality. Fortnite Season 2 Collision recap At the start of the event, players loaded into a lobby which was later revealed to be the head of a giant mecha bear. The mech was positioned on The Resistance’s Moon Base and would be piloted by the players and Paradigm, a member of The Seven. The mech would fly down to The Island, and players were in the gunner seats blasting asteroids, tanks, and B.R.U.T.E. mechs. However, the mecha bear would be overwhelmed by rockets and would nearly fall to the I.O.’s forces. Luckily, everyone’s favorite banana Peeley would show up just in time with a semi-truck full of Slurp Juice. This would somehow bring the mech back to full health and allow it to plow through the I.O. unharmed. That is until The Collider would go off causing the mech to shut down. Now on foot, the player and Jonesy would team up with The Foundation (Dwyane “The Rock” Johnson) to race up the Collider to finish off Slone. At the top, Slone and her goons await the player in a tank. Jonesy’s attempt to reason with Slone would be to no avail, leading to Slone being crushed by the fist of the mecha bear. Fortnite Season 3 teasers The entirety of the event was pretty exciting and it even gave glimpses of what players can expect next season. The first of which was Darth Vader battling Obi-Wan Kenobi. We already knew Darth Vader would be coming to Fortnite thanks to a recent leak, but now the Sith Lord has been confirmed by Epic Games. This scene was shown which scaling The Collider as the Zero Point “showed different realities”. Additionally, players wielded the classic Assault Rifle in the second act of the event. This could possibly be pointing to the return of the AR and SCAR in Season 3. Following the event, players were sent to “To Be Continued” screen where a biome containing fluorescent trees and glowing mushrooms was teased. This isn’t like any biome we currently have on the map, so it could be teasing a new location. Fortnite reveals I.O. leader Geno During the event, the Zero Point changed a few times to show different realities. It showed the real world, a scene from the Star Wars universe, and a mystierous figure with glowing eyes named Geno. Geno is the leader of the Imagine Order making him the “big bad” of Fortnite. We didn’t get a good look at the villain, but we did see Jonsey and The Foundation jump into the Zero Point to persue Geno. There’s no doubt that Geno will play a larger role in Fortnite’s overarching story. Fortnite Season 3 is set to release at 6 AM EST on June 5. While you wait, check out our Fortnite hub where you can find all the latest Fortnite news and guides.

Fortnite Chapter 3 players make wild event predictions after finding potential clue – Dexerto
Fortnite Chapter 3 players make wild event predictions after finding potential clue Epic GamesFortnite Chapter 3 is well underway and players are beginning to speculate and make some wild predictions about future events. This one in particular is focused on a potential clue around the purpose of the Mighty Monument. Epic Games has a history of hiding Fortnite’s secrets in plain sight, and eagle-eyed members of the community are starting to catch onto the company’s strategy. While there are a few competing ideas about what it could mean, some players are convinced that the gigantic statue of Dwayne Johnson’s character “The Foundation” could hold the key to a future in-game event. Fortnite players discover potential event clue The big discussion is centered around the Mighty Monument statue in the islands east of Sanctuary and whether or not it has a secret purpose. One user suggests that the statue is secretly a robot, and will likely be activated to help in the fight against the villainous Imagined Order whenever they arrive on the map: “I’m calling it right here, this statue is going to turn into a robot during an event” Another commenter backed this idea up, confirming that a look at the game’s files makes the theory completely plausible: “Considering the statue has an animation rig attached to it, it’s most definitely going to do something.” While many are convinced that the big hunk of rock is holding some kind of secret, there’s no unanimous agreement about the details. u/nikefromoce proposed the theory that the statue is the hilt of a weapon, similar to the Sword of Singularity from the Final Showdown event in Season 9: “Even look, the foundation is the grip and those 2 rocks on the side are like the things that appear on a sword.” Whether either of these things actually comes to light remains to be seen, but the IO are drawing closer to the island so it might not be long before we get an answer.

Fortnite Chapter 3 players frustrated as crashing “loop” stops game from loading – Dexerto
Fortnite Chapter 3 players frustrated as crashing “loop” stops game from loading Epic GamesFortnite Chapter 3 is here but players aren’t getting a chance to play the new content as they are stuck in an infinite crashing loop. Chapter 3 of Fortnite was released on December 5 bringing a new map, battle pass, and a lot of frustration. While Epic Games did a great job with cosmetics and the gameplay aspect of the game, players were having issues getting to try it all out as their game was crashing over and over. Fortnite Chapter 3 players dealing with crashing issues With every new update, there are always chances to run into problems and with a near 8 GB file, the servers are working overtime. This had resulted in players not being able to play Chapter 3 for multiple hours after its release. Fortnite Status sent a Tweet informing players that they were aware of the issue and working on a fix. We’re aware that log-ins, purchases, partying up, and matchmaking may be delayed. We’ll provide an update when this has returned to normal. pic.twitter.com/75o9yM7v7o — Fortnite Status (@FortniteStatus) December 5, 2021 According to replies and Reddit, players were reporting that once their game loaded it would keep them on the connecting screen before it would eventually crash. Another person reported that every time they went to claim their battle pass rewards, it would go down. What’s frustrating players is that they are being forced to wait in a server queue every single time. So people are waiting for nearly 20 minutes to get into Chapter 3 and then have to do it all over again if the game crashes. One Redditor said, “I got thrown out and into a 10-minute queue.” While another replied, “Me too, but with 10-minute, 15-minute, 22-minute, and 25-minute queues.” At the time of writing this, Fortnite Status claims that this problem has been resolved. But there are still some that are experiencing their game crashing and being forced into queues.

Fortnite Chapter 3 leaked with new loading screen – Dexerto
Fortnite Chapter 3 leaked with new loading screen Epic GamesFortnite Chapter 3 could be arriving sooner than fans expected, with a familiar in-game playlist to usher in ‘The End of Chapter 2’ event alongside it. Fortnite Chapter 2 has been around since October 2019, but it may be time for fans to prepare to say goodbye. While there is no set date for when the end of the season is arriving, some new leaks suggest that the second era of the game is steaming ahead towards its conclusion. And if it’s anything like last time, nothing is safe from getting a complete makeover. Fortnite Chapter 3 loading screen leak The first leak, courtesy of FNBRIntel and YLSDev, shows several of the game’s heroes preparing to venture into battle against The Cube Queen. Much of Chapter 2 has been devoted to the ongoing war effort and it looks as if things are finally coming to a head before the arrival of Chapter 3. EVENT LOADING SCREEN – CHAPTER 3 CONFIRMED (via @FNBRintel & @YLSDev) pic.twitter.com/xEBqR1AZyR — Shiina (@ShiinaBR) November 16, 2021 The End event returns in Fortnite Chapter 2 Another leak has revealed the return of “The End” – the climactic playable event from Chapter One that allowed players a first-hand view of the original map’s downfall. There are still no details about how this event will work in Chapter 2 but if it follows the same format as the first version, anyone who wants to see the end of the Cube War – and maybe even get a glance at Chapter 3 – will want to tune in for it. The live event playlist will be named “The End” pic.twitter.com/h0ImtKXt9X — InTheShade – Fortnite Leaks (@InTheShadeYT) November 16, 2021 The last version of the event saw the destruction of the game’s first map through a massive black hole and brought a real-life 37-hour pause to matchmaking activities in preparation for the Chapter 2 reveal. While the specifics of this event are still up in the air, for more information about what we do know, check out our Fortnite Chapter 3 hub for all the up-to-date leaks and announcements.

Is there a Fortnite live event for the Chapter 3 Season 1 finale? – Dexerto
Is there a Fortnite live event for the Chapter 3 Season 1 finale? Epic GamesThe finale of Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 1 is fast approaching, but is there going to be a live event before the next season begins? Let’s find out… Aside from its A-list crossovers with the likes of Spider-Man and Resident Evil, Fortnite is arguably most known for its epic live events that have players doing everything from fighting Galactus to watching an Ariana Grande concert. So naturally, as Chapter 3: Season 1 comes to a close, players are starting to anticipate the next big live event they’ll get to experience. But will there even be a live event to end this season? And when will it happen if there is one? Below, you’ll find out everything you need to know about the finale of Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 1, including whether or not there will be a live event before Season 2 arrives. Is there a live event in Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 1? Right now, it looks like there’s not going to be a live event to mark the finale of Fortnite Chapter 3: Season 1. How do we know this? Well, the final patch of the current season has already gone live, and leakers have found no files that relate to a live event – something that has happened with previous seasons. While there’s always a chance that Epic Games could release a surprise update to add the files needed for a live event, it doesn’t seem likely with only days to go until the current season ends. This is unusual, as most seasons end with an event of some kind, even if it’s not truly ‘live’. Why isn’t there a live event this season? It’s hard to know why there’s no live event for Chapter 3: Season 1, but not every season has one, so it could just be that Epic Games are focusing their attention on making the next season as good as it can be. Read More: The rarest Fortnite skins of all time – Considering the amount of content we got with the debut of Chapter 3, including an entirely new map, a revamped weapon pool, and a huge Winterfest event, it would be a lot to ask for a massive live event too. One theory is that there will be a special event at the start of Chapter 3: Season 2 instead, which happened with Chapter 2: Season 6, but it’s best not to get your hopes up until Epic Games confirm anything.

Fortnite Chapter 3 just added lots of chests to one specific location – Dexerto
Fortnite Chapter 3 just added lots of chests to one specific location Epic GamesLanding in Fortnite is always a mad scramble to find a weapon, and dropping near a chest is the best way to do that. Luckily, in Chapter 3, Epic has placed lots of chests in one small location that could become your squad’s new landing spot. It’s important to start each game of Fortnite off on the right foot, and that’s no different in Chapter 3. Landing in the right place and looting up gets you off on the right foot and makes bagging a Victory Royale all the more likely. The best tactic is always to make sure you’re landing where chests spawn. This could be one of the many names locations scatted around the flipped map, but there are some lesser-known spots that have plenty of chests to open. In Fortnite Chapter 3, Epic have crammed one tiny location with plenty of chests to start your match off right. Here’s where you can find it. Fortnite loves to populate the map with landing spots for players to discover, mainly to spread them out in each match as much as possible. But some of them can offer up as much loot as landing at The Daily Bugle. One such location, first posted by Reddit user Ecquatic, can be found just south of the returning Greasy Grove. If you catch in the right game, three chests spawn here in the middle of the trees in front of a sofa. Dropping here, especially on Solos or Duos, is the ideal way to arm yourself away from the chaos. Once you’re all looted up, you can head into Greasy Grove itself and pick off anyone who is left. The spot isn’t named on the Fortnite map, but you can use the picture below to find it. You can find these types of spots in every Fortnite season. In the past, large trees with chests scattered around them have been popular landing sites. It’s worth noting that there’s no guarantee that all of the chests at this spot will spawn in every game. They are subject to the same randomness as every other chest found across the map. But if you happen to drop here and there are no chests or weapons to pick up, there are some smaller buildings over to the left and on top of the small cliff. There may be some loot in here to save your skins.

Epic Games have introduced characters from the deepest depths of pop culture in Fortnite, with Marvel’s Doctor Strange adding to their already stacked roster. However, the ambitious crossovers are set to continue as Fortnite leakers dig into the game and find new hints. Put on your fedora and grab a lightsaber because Indiana Jones and Darth Vader may be heading into a battle with you soon. Contents When are Indiana Jones and Darth Vader coming to Fortnite? – How to get Indiana Jones and Darth Vader skins in Fortnite – When are Indiana Jones and Darth Vader coming to Fortnite? According to known Fortnite leaker @ShiinaBR, Indiana Jones and Darth Vader are set to arrive in Chapter 3. The leak was corroborated by fellow leaker @TaborTimeYT, who correctly leaked the arrival of Doctor Strange with Shiina before the latest season. Indiana Jones is said to have “been in the works for a very long time” according to @TaborTimeYT. The iconic archaeologist was rumored to debut in Call of Duty: Vanguard, but it never came to fruition. BREAKING: Indiana Jones will be added to the game in Chapter 3 – Season 3! According to @TaborTimeYT, this collaboration has been in the works for a very long time! pic.twitter.com/DAZ9xwmN6a — Shiina (@ShiinaBR) April 8, 2022 BREAKING: DARTH VADER IS CONFIRMED FOR CHAPTER 3 – SEASON 3 He will also be a boss on the Island during the next season! 🔥 This was confirmed by @TaborTimeYT, who is known for always posting correct leaks! pic.twitter.com/Zbhkeo0Jlc — Shiina (@ShiinaBR) April 8, 2022 Darth Vader’s inclusion would add to the already incredible line-up of Star Wars characters, which includes The Mandalorian, Kylo Ren, and Rey. Notably, Shiina said that Darth Vader “will also be a boss on the island” during Fortnite’s next season. How to get Indiana Jones and Darth Vader skins in Fortnite While there isn’t any concrete information on when the two iconic Lucasfilms-owned characters will arrive, we wager they will debut via the in-game store. If Epic Games follow the tradition of their other skin packs, then both characters will likely be available for two different prices. One bundle may feature fewer cosmetic items but will include the character itself for around 1,500 V-Bucks. The other skin pack could feature more emotes and cosmetics, but for a raised price at 2,600 V-Bucks. However, this is purely speculative.

Fortnite Chapter 2 v11.01 patch notes revealed – Dexerto
Fortnite Chapter 2 v11.01 patch notes revealed Epic Games have finally revealed the changes that were made to Fortnite Chapter 2 in their v11.01 patch and there is quite a lot to unpack. The game’s developers unveiled one of – if not the – biggest update in Fortnite history with the opening of Chapter 2, Season 1 on October 15. While that might be hard to top, that hasn’t stopped them from freshening up some other elements of the popular title. Following the reveal of the patch, there have been a number of new Halloween skins and styles leaked by data miners, but those have yet to be confirmed by Epic Games. This new v11.01 patch went live on October 22 with some downtime and now the changes are available for all to see, via the official Fortnite Trello page. For those who aren’t aware, developers use this platform not only to show details of new patches and fixes that have been implemented, but also what to expect from future updates across all game modes – making it an ideal page to bookmark for any battle royale fan. So, let’s take a look at everything we know so far about the patch notes.

For those interested in the new Save the World content, head over to Fortnite’s October 22 blog post for more details. In terms of Battle Royale, it appears that small tweaks have been made following on from the Fortnite v11.00.1 update – which also included chiefly small fixes. A notable fix was made to one of the Open Water challenges, though, and you can check out our easy guide on how to complete them here. While many fans might have been hoping for sweeping changes across the mode once again, it was always going to be a long shot. After all, a lot of players won’t have even dropped at all of the locations on the new map just yet. FPS issues on PC, though, have been resolved.

Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 8 update patch notes: Cubes, Sideways chests & weapons, Punchcards – Dexerto
Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 8 update patch notes: Cubes, Sideways chests & weapons, Punchcards Epic GamesFortnite Chapter 2 Season 8 has arrived, and the Cube is back. Almost three years on from its initial appearance in Fortnite, everyone on the Island is fighting for survival. Here’s all the details you need, including the patch 18.00 notes and more. Fortnite’s storyline is ramping up in Chapter 2. While Season 7 brought along the “Invasion”, seeing the island transformed with an alien takeover, the real bosses are back: Kevin the Cube has arrived, and this time, he’s brought his army. The “Cubed” Fortnite update for Chapter 2 Season 8 kicked off with the Operation Sky Fire in-game event, and will continue on for the next couple of months. Here’s what you need to know about the September 13 update. Fortnite Season 8 story trailer Cubes are back — but in what capacity? Kevin the Cube has obviously made his arrival back into Fortnite with the “Cubed” update, it only makes sense. However, there is a legion of the mysterious purple bricks dotting the island in the story trailer, leading to plenty of hype about how the map has changed. The Cube has been increasingly involved in Fortnite’s lore, and with the Operation Sky Fire in-game event ending with Cubes raining down upon the Island. Now, those smaller cubes act as rifts to “The Sideways”, where players can fight new monsters to farm better loot. Sideways Chests & Weapons added in Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 8 Breaking down those Sideways, at least three new weapons have been added, which players can find when they take the Cube rifts. The Sideways Rifle, Minigun, and Lightblade give players three options — either get up close and swing (with hopefully not as much force as the lightsabers), or take a ranged fight with the Rifle and Minigun. The exact stats of the Sideways weapons are unknown, but you’ll be able to find them in chests after jumping between dimensions and fighting whatever lurks on the other side. NEW WEAPONS: – Sideways Rifle – Sideways Minigun – Sideways Lightblade pic.twitter.com/n02gqp4YeU— Shiina (@ShiinaBR) September 13, 2021 Map changes in Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 8: Sludgy Swamp, more The new Fortnite map is looking rather grim in Chapter 2 Season 8. While the layout is the same, with all the POIs staying in place, Slurpy Swamp has been renamed to Sludgy Swamp. Corny Complex is also now called Corny Crops. There are also spots of red dotted around the map, where the Cubes might have corrupted the Fortnite landscape. The exact changes will be hard to tell until players start booting into the map, but expect a few hot drops around the new “Red” zones marked out on the map. Plus, as the fight against the Cubes continues, the map could evolve across Season 8. Punchcards have returned to Fortnite Punchcards are returning in Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 8, making your battle pass progress a lot easier to complete. The punchcards give players a chance to complete numerous themed objectives, all with plenty of XP on the line for their troubles. Exact values and missions haven’t been confirmed yet, but it should make the grind that bit easier. Punchcards have returned! pic.twitter.com/WYMGm8OnwZ — iFireMonkey (@iFireMonkey) September 13, 2021 Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 8 battle pass include Carnage crossover Speaking of the battle pass, it looks to be jampacked full of both original and crossover content. Carnage, the Marvel supervillain, will be available to players who grind to Tier 100 at the very end. More to come…

Fortnite Season 7 update patch notes: “Invasion” theme, Aliens, Superman, Rick & Morty, UFOs – Dexerto
Fortnite Season 7 update patch notes: “Invasion” theme, Aliens, Superman, Rick & Morty, UFOs Epic GamesFortnite Chapter 2 Season 7 has officially arrived and it’s set to be one of the biggest seasons we’ve had in quite some time — here are all the juicy details, including 17.00 patch notes, and more. The release of any Fortnite season is one that brings all of the communities together, to take in the marvelous job Epic Games have done building up anticipation for each new season. This time around is no different, as we have had a ton of teasers posted in the lead-up to Season 7, along with multiple leaks about some of the content coming to the game. Here’s everything we know about update 17.00, starting with all the details on Fortnite’s impending downtime, and the June 8 patch notes including map changes and new weapons. Fortnite Season 7 start time & downtime Downtime for the new season began at 2 AM EST (7 AM BST) on June 8, 2021. This was confirmed by the official FortniteStatus Twitter account. After around two hours of downtime, the servers went live, meaning players can now hop right into Fortnite Season 7 whenever they want to. Fortnite Season 7 story trailer Alien takeover Epic Games spent the final weeks of Season 6 teasing an alien takeover, with crop circles appearing on the Island and UFOs flying around the skies, abducting players, and transporting them to other locations. Now, it appears the aliens are hovering over the Fortnite island in their Mothership. They have been collecting items from the island to analyze them, possibly to see what is exactly going on within the island. Players can also now take control of the UFOs that were previously abducting them. They’ll be able to drive around in them, abduct other players, heal teammates, and also deal some serious damage to opponents. Rick & Morty, Superman crossovers Fortnite’s creators are well known for collaborating with modern-day brands and incorporating them within Fortnite at some point. This was evident during Season 4, as the entire Battle Pass and map was Marvel-themed, and they are continuing this movement. With the arrival of the new Season 7 Battle Pass, it’s now been revealed that there are two major crossovers for players to unlock: iconic DC superhero Superman, and animated character Rick Sanchez from the hit series Rick & Morty. With both Superman and Rick & Morty hailing from an extraterrestrial planet, it makes perfect sense with the alien takeover theme. You can see the full contents of the Fortnite Season 7 Battle Pass right here. New weapons and vaulted weapons There are four new alien-themed weapons for players to utilize in their quest for a Victory Royale in Fortnite Season 7. First is the Kymera Ray Gun, which fires a continuous beam of energy that can melt through both structures and enemy players. Second, there’s the Recon Scanner Launcher, a handy tool that reveals nearby targets and chests. Next, there’s the Rail Gun Rifle is a deadly high-tech weapon that can be charged up to fire a single powerful shot. Finally, players will be able to find a Pulse Rifle, which features two ways of shooting. When hip-fired, the Pulse Rifle is fully automatic, but when you ADS, the rifle features much slower shots. As for the Primal and Makeshift weapons that made their debut in Fortnite Season 6, they’ve now been vaulted alongside the Infantry Rifle and the Revolver. You can see all vaulted and unvaulted weapons here. Fortnite map changes As with any new season of Fortnite, Season 7 brings with it a revitalized map for players to explore. Gone are the orange Primal Biomes of Season 6, and instead they’ve been replaced by purple spots that must have something to do with the alien invasion taking place. The Zero Point was destroyed in the season’s opening Story Trailer, leaving a mysterious pool of water at the center of the map. Colossal Crops is now Corny Complex, and Sweaty Sands is now Believer Beach. While there aren’t any major changes to the Fortnite Island, it’s always exciting to see Epic change things up – and they’ve promised that the ‘battlefield’ will change as the season progresses. Season 7 brings “upgraded” visuals Epic Games are rolling out visual upgrades for Fortnite in 17.00. These follow the changes made to Fortnite’s release for the new generation of consoles in 2020. According to Epic, both “Battle Royale and Creative modes benefit from improved Storm and cloud effects, as well as enhanced simulations for smoke and liquid.” This means “cooler-looking explosion, fire, and Slurp effects.” There will also be improved postprocessing features such as bloom and lens flares and improved shadow quality.

Fortnite Season 7 ‘Invasion’ review – OP UFOs cast shadow over best weapon pool ever – Dexerto
Fortnite Season 7 ‘Invasion’ review – OP UFOs cast shadow over best weapon pool ever Epic GamesFortnite Chapter 2 Season 7 brings a highly-teased ‘Invasion’ to the Island, but flyable UFOs and alien-themed map changes can’t hide the fact that this season is mostly more of the same. Every few months, Epic Games bring a new seasonal update to their hit battle royale in an attempt to keep things fresh and exciting. With the promise of map changes, new weapons, and a fresh Battle Pass, it’s always a highlight for Fortnite fans. Now, after weeks of teasing, Epic have finally unleashed their alien-themed Season 7 upon the world. On the surface, it seems like one of the most exciting updates yet, but the handful of new features on offer might not be enough to keep players gripped. Fortnite Invasion – Key details Price: Free – Developer: Epic Games – Release Date: June 8, 2021 – Platforms: Windows, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, Android – Fortnite Invasion trailer UFOs are fun but overpowered Let’s get the big update out of the way first: UFOs are here, and they’re causing chaos. If you’re flying them, they’re a whole lot of ‘Destroy All Humans’-style fun, but if you’re getting abducted and launched across the Island, then frustrating is an understatement. For now, it’s simply a case of taking the good with the bad until Epic finds a way to nerf them. You can’t deny they’ve shaken things up, though. As far as the alien-themed Battle Pass goes, well… it does the job. There’s nothing to match the highs of The Mandalorian or Lara Croft here – Superman as a Secret Skin feels more like a ‘finally!’ moment than a real surprise considering how many DC crossovers there have been – and the original characters aren’t particularly memorable. Props must be given to the highly customizable Kymera skin, though, as it offers an extra layer of unlockables for players to get stuck into. Meanwhile, the face of the season, Doctor Slone, could be an interesting character if Epic weave her into the wider Fortnite lore going forward. Fingers crossed. The best Fortnite weapon pool yet In Season 7, Epic have finally nailed the weapon pool. Old favorites like the Pump Shotgun, the SCAR, and the Bolt-Action Sniper Rifle are all here. They’re joined by new IO Tech weapons that are worth the extra effort to find, but not so OP that they break the game. The Rail Gun, for example, is an absolute highlight, requiring high precision with a deadly payoff. Fortunately, weapon crafting plays a much smaller part this season. Unlike the previous Primal season, where the majority of loot was makeshift and crafting was almost a necessity to get decent weapons, there are now just a few craftable weapons, and only one material to be found. It’s made the process a lot simpler, but also easier to ignore for those who prefer to get straight into the action. Epic have struck a perfect balance between classic and fresh with this season’s weapon pool, and it’s hard to see how anyone could be disappointed. Our only slight criticism right now is that upgrades at weapon benches are far too expensive – but there’s time for that to be fixed in a mid-season update. Fortnite’s map needs a major overhaul At first glance, you’d be forgiven for thinking that Epic simply forgot to update the map this season. Previous updates have featured sand-drenched landscapes and snow-covered biomes, but right now it’s a sea of green. There are no significant new POIs, either. Instead, a few existing locations have been (slightly) redesigned, with Sweaty Sands becoming Believer Beach and Colossal Crops now known as Corny Complex. It feels as though Epic have poured all of their time and resources into UFOs and new weapons, which may suit some players. But nothing compares to the excitement of jumping out of the Battle Bus and landing on fresh terf, which is a feeling that, sadly, this update is missing. The new IO Bases scattered around the map are great, but they’re no main event, and it’s becoming harder to understand why locations like Coral Castle and Catty Corner still remain when more exciting POIs have been wiped out in recent seasons. This isn’t entirely a new problem, though. As it stands, the current map looks almost identical to how it did all the way back in Chapter 2 Season 1 – which launched almost two years ago. That’s a long time for so little change. With fellow battle royale titles like Apex Legends and Warzone bringing entirely new maps into the fold, why can’t Epic do the same? Here’s hoping the map at least evolves throughout the season. Rating: 7/10 As far as Fortnite’s Chapter 2 seasonal updates go, Invasion is definitely one of the better ones. UFOs are an exciting addition, IO Bases help switch things up, and the weapon pool is the best it’s ever been. But unless Epic keeps Season 7 fresh with meaningful updates, it’s unlikely to cure your Fortnite fatigue.

Fortnite Chapter 2 update: What changed in the v11.00 patch? – Dexerto
Fortnite Chapter 2 update: What changed in the v11.00 patch? Epic GamesAfter being sucked away by a black hole, Fortnite has officially returned on PC, PS4, Xbox One and mobile, rebranding itself as ‘Chapter 2’, and adding several new features, mechanics, and a whole new map. While the official patch notes have yet to be released, many of the new additions are detailed below. Players have been anticipating the return of Fortnite following the backup, and after being teased with map and trailer leaks, Chapter 2 has finally arrived. It was a lengthy downtime, but we’re sure many players will agree that it has been worth the wait as Epic have completely overhauled the game as we know it. Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 1 Patch Notes While Fortnite Chapter 2, Season 1 is now live, the strange things is that Epic Games have yet to release any patch notes for the major update, instead deciding that players should drop into the game and find out what’s new for themselves. With a new map, vehicle, and more all added to the game, there is certainly a lot to discover for Fortnite fans, with Epic even choosing to not include the names of new points-of-interest on the map, instead requiring players to visit the location to find out what they’re called. As things stand, there has been no official confirmation that the developers will release any patch notes for the Chapter 2 update, but we’ll be sure to update this article with any information, or the full notes if and when they are released. New map Fortnite Chapter 2’s biggest change is the map, with developers Epic Games introducing a brand-new island for players to battle on throughout Season 1. The map comes with some classic PoIs like Pleasant Park and Salty Springs, and introduces some incredible new locations like Power Plant and Slurpy Swamps, with 13 total named areas on the map at launch. Fishing With so much water covering the island, Fishing is now a major part of the game, with players able to use the item to pull things out of the water. Fish found in the water can offer health and Shield boosts to players, and if you’re lucky you may even be able to grab yourself a rare weapon from the depths of the water, allowing you to take down opponents without going through chests. Lets Go Fishing! #Fortnite #XboxShare pic.twitter.com/FXXrXdvJGP — Beans (@LiquidBeans) October 15, 2019 Boats Another major change is the addition of boats. Vehicles and other mobility options haven’t always been met with universal praise in Fortnite with planes, Ballers, and BRUTEs all drawing constant criticism but Epic are trying again, this time with boats. The boats come with boosters to help you zoom around the island as quickly as possible, and have a Missile Launcher built into the front, allowing you to deal damage even if you’re behind the wheel. With the map featuring so much water, boats seem like a smart idea considering players will need a way to zip around the world quickly. extreme boat sports :O #Fortnite #XboxShare pic.twitter.com/q3CwNNWj3g — Spongebuu (@Spongebuu) October 15, 2019 Battle Pass Epic pulled out all the stops for Chapter 2 and delivered the largest Battle Pass to date. A whopping 1,500 V-Bucks are up for grabs as you progress through the tiers, and, as always, there are all sorts of cosmetics to unlock including skins, back bling, gliders, and more. Upgrade Benches One of the most frustrating things about Fortnite can be the loot, as you randomly search for weapons in the hopes of finding something good, but are often greeted with items you didn’t really want, or less powerful version of the weapons you were after. In Chapter 2 though, players can upgrade their guns using the Upgrade Bench, which offers the chance to trade in your weapon for a higher rarity one in exchange for a hefty chunk of your materials.

Fortnite Chapter 2 – Season 1 Battle Pass trailer leaked – Dexerto
Fortnite Chapter 2 – Season 1 Battle Pass trailer leaked Epic GamesAfter nearly a day of downtime following the Season X live event, the Battle Pass trailer for Fortnite Chapter 2 has leaked and it gives us a good look at what to expect. Fans have been dying to learn more about what Epic have up their sleeves for the upcoming season of Fortnite and we have finally gotten our first glimpse. The full Battle Pass trailer for Fortnite Chapter 2 has leaked and it gives us a look at everything that has changed in the game. You can view the trailer below, which was first posted by SkinTracker. This trailer, if it turns out to be authentic, gives us our first look at boats, a new fishing mechanic, and much, much more. A brand-new medal system is being introduced which gives players even more ways to level up. It’s clear the developers intend this to be a massive overhaul to the current game and this is one of the ways they will keep player interest high. With the new map seemingly on the brink of being very water-centric, a new diving mechanic has been added that shows a player dive off a cliff into the river below. The trailer gives us a look at a new beach location and what’s most interesting is we see downed teammates being carried, which indicates you’ll be able to run your teammate out of harm’s way when they are downed. Like any Fortnite update, we see a look at some new cosmetics, but even that’s been ramped up a notch as we see llama pogo sticks being ridden by several new skins, including a blue blob looking one. Read More: What do the numbers mean in Fortnite The End – To top it all off, it sounds like this will end up being the largest Battle Pass to ever come to Fortnite as the trailer says there are 1,500 V-Bucks up for grabs and over 100 rewards to obtain. The only thing that’s missing is an official start time. There have been a lot of rumors swirling around, with some of them saying a launch won’t happen until October 17. With this leaked video, it’s looking like we’re right on the cusp of a release so stay tuned for any information surrounding the launch of Chapter 2.

Fortnite Chapter 2 Overtime challenges leaked for Season 1 – Dexerto
Fortnite Chapter 2 Overtime challenges leaked for Season 1 @srdrabxFortnite Chapter 2’s debut season is coming towards its end and the conclusion will spark the arrival of some Overtime challenges, where players can typically pick up a number of exciting rewards. The Overtime challenges this time, however, have been given an interesting code name – based on leaked information from Lucas7yoshi. The challenge list has been labelled ‘Remedy vs. Toxin’. As we’ve seen in the past, though, just because this has been given that name in the game’s files doesn’t mean it will be exactly that when they’re added. So, let’s take a look at the challenges and what to expect from them. As is usually the case, the challenges will set players the task of visiting a number of different places on the Fortnite map on the hunt for specific things to visit. This time, it will be landmarks, bus stops, food trucks, and more. The official release time is still yet to be confirmed for the list, although they usually appear towards the end of each season. It was announced that Fortnite Chapter 2’s Season 1 would be extended until “early February” by Epic Games in November, meaning that these challenges could be some way off being released. However, for those wanting to get prepared early and see what’s going to be expected of them, the leaked missions can be found below. Fortnite Chapter 2, Season 1 Overtime challenges Stage 1 of 2: Reach Battle Pass Tier 40 – Stage 2 of 2: Complete ‘Remedy vs. Toxin’ Mission Objectives – Visit different Food Trucks (x3) – Earn Silver Survivor Medals (x3) – SMG Eliminations (x3) – Search chests at Landmarks (x7) – Reach 100 of both Health and Shield in different matches (x3) – Deal damage with a Common, Uncommon and Rare weapon in a single match (x3) – Deal damage to enemy structures (x2,500) – Visit different bus stops in a single match (x3) – Achieve weapon specialist accolades by dealing damage with weapons (x5) – Be the first to catch a fish, first to land from the Battle Bus, or first to get an elimination (x1) – There will no doubt be another huge list of rewards to stack up against the challenges, although Lucas7yoshi and other data miners are still yet to have discovered those details in the game’s files at the time of writing. These challenges have not been confirmed by Epic Games and could be subject to change as the season goes on. After all, even slight map changes could have an impact to some of them. What happens if all of the Food Trucks just disappear? Unlikely, but that would wipe that challenge out – for example. We’ll have to wait and see.

Fortnite Chapter 2 ‘New World’ challenges leaked for Week 1 – Dexerto
Fortnite Chapter 2 ‘New World’ challenges leaked for Week 1 Epic GamesFortnite Battle Royale players will soon be able to grind their way through the first set of challenges in Chapter 2 and they have a really fitting name – the ‘New World’. If there was something that players of the battle royale game mode were looking for it was a new map and that anticipation only ramped up even further when the Season 10 ending event completely destroyed the map that had been developed since the game first released in September 2017. Now that a new landscape is available to play on and a whole host of new features have been added, including fresh weapons, never before seen points of interest, and even the ability to go fishing, let’s take a look at what you will need to do to complete the first set of tasks. You don’t have to be a genius, or as smart as Fortnite’s Scientist, to guess what you’re going to have to do for this set of New World challenges, though. Of course, they’re very much based around exploration and seeing things you haven’t seen before in the game mode. Unlike the start of previous seasons, the entire map has been given a facelift, with named locations and landmarks hidden behind question marks until they have been explored by players. You’re going to have to really look around and vary the places you drop quite regularly to complete them, which should be fun. So, without further ado, let’s take a look at the entire leaked list – courtesy of data miner Lucas7yoshi. Now that you have seen them all, you will see that it’s not only going to be exploration of different landing spots that will help you complete these challenges, but trying out a number of new features as well – including the fishing rods, carrying players and more. These challenges are expected to be made available for the first week of Fortnite Chapter 2, Season 1, and offers just one reward that’s not Battle Stars. That reward is a brand new loading screen, as seen below. Once the challenges have gone live in-game, we’ll be the first to let you know. At the time of writing, the information here is unconfirmed, but that won’t stop fans from looking forward to seeing them added to Fortnite.

Fortnite leak reveals important Chapter 2 OG details – Dexerto
Fortnite leak reveals important Chapter 2 OG details Epic GamesA new leak claims Epic is working on Fortnite Chapter 2 OG, and it might release sooner than players anticipated. In November 2023, Epic brought back Fortnite’s original map in an “OG” re-launch that revisited classic play spaces, weapons, and more. This particular experience didn’t stick around for very long, though, much to players’ chagrin. By popular demand, the developers launched Fortnite Reload in June 2024, offering a dedicated mode complete with beloved POIs from the game’s first version. Fans presently await the arrival of a revamped Chapter 2, which Twitter/X user Tector leaked around the time of Reload’s arrival. More recent leaks have claimed Fortnite Chapter 2 OG would go live later in the year. Now, there’s reason to believe Epic has settled on a launch date for the experience. According to reputable leaker Shiina, Chapter 2 OG will become on Saturday, November 2, 2024. The long-rumored Snoop Dogg collaboration will allegedly enter the fray on the same day, the leaker said in their post. At the time of writing, Epic Games itself has yet to share anything concrete about its plans for the future of Fortnite OG releases. Leaked Fortnite OG Chapter 2 schedule for all seasons Based on another leak posted by Shiina on August 24, 2024, Fortnite OG Chapter 2 will be getting three separate seasons before the live event for Chapter 6. Season 1: November 2 – Season 2: November 9 – Season 3: November 23 – According to this leaked schedule, the second season will be the longest one out of the others, likely because it’s often referred to as one of Fortnite’s most popular and iconic seasons by the community. Shortly after OG Season 3, the leak also showed the schedule for Chapter 6’s live event, which will fall on November 30, 2024. It’s worth noting that Fortnite Chapter 2 OG and its supposed November release window did appear in a 2024 roadmap leak that’s proven accurate, thus far. The alleged roadmap started making the rounds in April, correctly revealing the Season 3 wasteland theme, Pirates of the Caribbean, and Marvel-themed Chapter 5 Season 4. This leak also unveiled Doctor Doom’s involvement in the latter, which has since been confirmed in the official Absolute Doom announcement from Epic. Given that Epic has yet to confirm anything, however, do take all this information with a grain of salt for now.

Fortnite Chapter 2 map and every location revealed – Dexerto
Fortnite Chapter 2 map and every location revealed Epic GamesFortnite Chapter 2 has finally arrived and brings a brand-new map alongside a ton of updated points-of-interest for the popular battle royale’s new season. Fortnite went down on Sunday, October 13 following the epic ‘The End’ in-game event, with a strange black hole appearing on player’s screens for almost two days. On October 15, fans were finally met with downtime, with Epic Games releasing the Chapter 2, Season 1 update, which includes a fresh island for players to drop into and compete on in search of Victory Royales. New Fortnite Map The new Fortnite map is a large departure from the original Fortnite map. It’s split into a number of islands, including a sandy area in the northwest corner of the map, and an island sitting in the middle of a lake at the center of the map. There are some snowy mountains in the southeast, while a marshy area appears to cover the southwest corner, reminiscent of Moisty Mire, which was part of the original map for the game. Every Fortnite Chapter 2 Point-of-Interest With this new map comes a ton of new named locations, 10 fresh points-of-interest, and the return of some of the game’s most popular landing spots which are back for Chapter 2. A giant power plant has also appeared on the map, alongside a number of new cities for players to explore. You can view all 13 of the Fortnite Chapter 2, Season 1 points-of-interest below. Pleasant Park Pleasant Park has long been one of the most popular landing spots in Fortnite, and many will be ecstatic to see it return for the game’s second chapter. Retail Row Retail Row has also returned, with Epic Games bringing it back after it was one of many locations affected by Rift Zones in Season 10. Players will be glad to hear that the location is no longer overrun by hordes of zombies, which means you’ll only have to worry about battling opponents and not the undead the next time you land there. Salty Springs Salty Springs is back, too, joining Pleasant Park as one of only two locations that will appear in all 11 seasons of the game. Power Plant New to Fortnite Chapter 2 is Power Plant, a massive location in the northeast corner of the map, with two massive cooling towers rising high into the air above the island. The Power Plant appears to be pumping some sort of liquid into the rivers, but what the substance is that is draining into the water remains unclear, although it appears to be linked to Kevin the Cube. Frenzy Farm Farms have been a staple of the popular battle royale title, with Anarchy Acres and Fatal Fields both appearing in Chapter 1. Now Frenzy Farm continues the mantle heading into Chapter 2. Weeping Woods Many hold fond memories of Moisty Mire from Chapter 1, and the presence of a forest is confirmed for Chapter 2, with Weeping Woods introduced in the new update. It’s not just trees around here though, as a tower stands tall above the treeline, and there are a number of buildings in a clearing near the middle, giving cover and some loot to those who wander into the woods. Dirty Docks Boats play a major part in Fortnite Chapter 2, so it’s no surprise that Epic Games have added a new location where players can find and leave their boats named Dirty Docks. Cranes tower above this location, and shipping containers full of loot are sure to make this an area worth landing at. Lazy Lake Right on the edge of the river is Lazy Lake, a town with plenty of buildings for players to explore, and easy access to the rest of the map via the boats that are parked there. Misty Meadows Reminiscent of Happy Hamlet, Misty Meadows is a quaint town in the southern corner of the map, in which most buildings made of brick. This will be an easy spot to boost your material stacks. Sweaty Sands Life’s a beach at Sweaty Sands! This town sits right on the seashore, with a hotel for those who want to kick back and relax, and plenty of boats to hop in and sail away in. Slurpy Swamp Ever wondered where Slurp Juice is made? It appears we finally have the answer, as the factory sits in the marshy land behind Weeping Woods, pumping out Shields and potions for all those combat-weary players who need to top up their health points. Claggy Cliffs Don’t go too close to the edge at Claggy Cliffs, as one of the location’s buildings juts out of the rock, leaving a steep drop for anyone who takes the plunge down to the beach below. Risky Reels Risky Reels is back in Chapter 2, sitting just east of Frenzy Fields. The drive-in cinema disappeared back in Season 7 and was replaced by The Block, but with the move to a new map, you can now visit the location once again and harvest some metal from the abundance of vehicles that are parked there.

Leaked Fortnite Hide and Seek Mission challenges – Dexerto
Leaked Fortnite Hide and Seek Mission challenges A brand new set of Fortnite challenges have been leaked for Chapter 2 and judging by the name, you might be expecting to jump into a huge game of Hide and Seek. That’s not really the case, though. The popular battle royale game has expanded its range of challenges in recent seasons, with the addition of limited-time missions and for the newest game, replacing hidden battle stars and banners with secret letters dotted around the map. These new Hide and Seek challenges will require you to find the next letter in the word ‘Fortnite’, with players also being asked to visit a number of different locations dotted around the island. Slurpy Swamp is just one of many places you will have to visit if these leaked challenges are accurate. Not everybody will have visited every landing spot on the Fortnite Chapter 2 map just yet, but these challenges might allow you to tick-off some more in the process. Let’s take a look at the full list, courtesy of Reddit user Maqz_, who posted them to the game’s subreddit on November 5. There are 11 in total. The Hide and Seek challenges are now available in Fortnite, and for help with completing all 11 make sure to check out our in-depth Hide and Seek challenges guide. Fortnite Hide and Seek challenges Land at Frenzy Farms, Slurpy Swamp, Sweaty Sands. – Harvest 500 wood, 400 stone, 300 metal. – Eliminations at Frenzy Farms or Sweaty Sands. – Search chests at Pleasant Park or Lazy Lake. – Consume foraged items. – Deal damage to opponents with a pickaxe. – Hit 5 consecutive weak spots while harvesting. – Hit headshots. – Visit landmarks in a single match. – Eliminations in different matches. – Search the hidden “T” from the loading screen. – It’s worth noting that these challenges are still yet to be confirmed by Epic Games and until that is to happen, we should all take them with a grain of salt. For all we know, they could be completely different when they are released. One thing that’s notable from the list, though, is that there isn’t a whole lot of hiding involved and hardly anything to seek – making it a strange fit. With the next set of challenges to be revealed on November 8, according to the challenges section in the game’s menu, we’ll have to wait and see what will appear.

Fortnite Chapter 2 map changes following end of Winterfest event – Dexerto
Fortnite Chapter 2 map changes following end of Winterfest event Epic GamesFortnite’s Winterfest event has wrapped up and we’re already seeing map changes as a result of that. With the conclusion of the Winterfest, the Fortnite map has started to experience a shift in weather patterns as the snow has started to melt away from the map. Through the duration of the event, the entire Chapter 2 map was covered with snow, and even though we’re still in January, the map is beginning to thaw out. Instead of it all disappearing at once, the snow is slowly melting away, beginning at Slurpy Swamp first. We don’t know the exact path it will take, but we don’t expect the snow to stick around for long since the process has already begun. As for what this all means, it hard to tell for right now. Fortnite Chapter 2’s inaugural season will be wrapping in February, so there’s still plenty of space Epic Games will have to fill in with content to keep players engaged. The Winterfest event was very well-received by the community, possibly due to the fact so much free content was given away. We don’t have a clear idea of what’s coming next, but we’re sure the answer will be revealed in the near future. Epic Games always have something up their sleeves when it comes to new content coming to the game, so there’s no reason to give up hope now. Map changes have been a lot rarer in Chapter 2, but they do happen. Fortnite updates have also slowed down a lot since Chapter 2 hit, but a large part of that might have to do with the holiday season and many employees taking time off. We’ll have a better idea for the cadence the developers will be following once Chapter 2 enters its second season. To close out seasons, Epic Games usually have some sort of event prepared and we don’t expect that to change this time around. Perhaps we can start seeing that plan put into action once all of this snow melts. Something has to fill the void, so why wait around?

New Fortnite Chapter 2 glitch allows you to supersize your character – Dexerto
New Fortnite Chapter 2 glitch allows you to supersize your character A new Fortnite Battle Royale glitch has been discovered that allows players to make their character models appear really small or extremely big. Fortnite players can freely change between skins and other in-game cosmetics to change the way their characters look in-game. It’s a way of adding a bit of your personality and flair to the game, instead of just looking like another boring generic character. However, what if there was the option to make your character even more unique? Maybe even change up how big they appear in-game? A new glitch in Fortnite Chapter 2 has allowed players to break the game and made their characters look like giants, or as small as ants. Youtube content creator ‘penguinzomby’ has shared how easy it is to replicate the glitch by creating his own island people can use to abuse it themselves. On a video uploaded to his channel on November 19, he walked players through how to activate the oddly-sized character models. By going to island 6098-5140-3070 and following the instructions written on the walls of the map, players will be able to change their model size with ease. Players will still move at the pace they normally would. That means shrunk characters will launch themselves across the map when they move, while giant models will walk along at a snail’s pace. Most other map interactions are the same. You can’t really sneak through any little gaps under doors you might look like you are able to slide on through, and super sized character models can still get around most buildings, the camera angle just looks weird.

While your model changes server-side, meaning everyone can see the updated character at its different size, you can’t take the changes into any matchmaking mode. However, it’s a fun way to play around with your mates in your own creative islands, hubs, and public playgrounds. If you ever wanted to walk around the map from a slightly different perspective, and maybe play a trick or two on your mates, you can freely abuse this glitch without fear of getting punished by Epic.

Fortnite Chapter 2 dance locations: Pipeman, Hayman and Timber Tent – Dexerto
Fortnite Chapter 2 dance locations: Pipeman, Hayman and Timber Tent The Trick Shot challenges have been added to Fortnite Chapter 2 and part of it involves dancing in a few different locations to earn your rewards. If you’re looking for the Pipeman, Hayman and Timber Tent, we’ve got you covered. A whole new list of tasks have arrived as part of Fortnite Chapter 2, week 7, alongside certain challenges based on eliminations, consuming health and fall damage, but the challenge to dance at certain locations may be one of the most difficult since you typically have to find the locations – which is easier said than done. So let’s take a look at how you can easily complete the challenges to dance at the Pipeman, the Hayman and the Timber Tent. Dance at the Pipeman First off, let’s take a look at the Pipeman in Fortnite Chapter 2. The Pipeman is located just south of Misty Meadows and the snowy mountain and can be seen as a yellow/light brown marking on the map below. There’s a chest you can open there, meaning if you choose to land there to complete the challenge, you can still grab some loot to keep yourself protected. Just start emoting and you’ll complete this part of the challenge. Dance at the Hayman The Hayman can be found southwest of Frenzy Farm and a lot easier to spot than the Pipeman. He is literally a big statue of hay, and you’ve likely seen him countless times on your travels through this area of the island. The Hayman looks like he’s dancing, too, so it’ll feel like a real party doing this part of the challenge. Dance at the Timber Tent The final location to complete this three-part challenge is the Timber Tent, which is located somewhere between Sweaty Sands and Holly Hedges on the western side of the map. Like the Pipeman, you can find a chest within the Tent so you can easily loot up and head into Frenzy Farm after you’ve had a dance. After you’ve completed these dance challenges, you can work on completing the rest of the Trick Shot challenges with this handy guide and earn your Battle Pass rewards. With the extension of Chapter 2, Season 1 being announced, there’s a chance that even more dance missions will be released and perhaps even more in the future will bring you back to these spots. So, it’s good to know where they are.

Bizarre Fortnite Chapter 2 bin glitch turns players into flying ghosts – Dexerto
Bizarre Fortnite Chapter 2 bin glitch turns players into flying ghosts A crazy bug in Fortnite Chapter 2 has been discovered, resulting in players glitching into ghost-like creatures, that are able to soar high above the map. Fortnite Chapter 2 is approaching a week old, and the majority of the community appears to be happy with the state of Epic Games’ battle royale, at least following ten seasons on the original map. As is to be expected when such a monumental change is made, a number of bugs and glitches have emerged. You can track all monitored bugs via the Fortnite Trello board. However, one new glitch has come to light, and quickly baffled the community. A Reddit user posted their findings to the official subreddit, and it has quickly amassed over 6,000 upvotes, as community members try and draw attention to the crazy glitch. The post, captioned “So hiding in a dumpster turned me into a dementor?” shows the player approach a dustbin on the map, and make use of the new ‘Hide’ mechanic. Next time they jump out of the bin, they are transformed into a ghost-like entity, reminiscent of the way ‘Shadow Stones’ used to impact players. However, the strangeness does not stop there, as the player floats higher and higher above the map, to the point where the majority of it becomes visible. It’s fair to say players were left confused by the bug, with many appreciating the comparison to the dementors from the Harry Potter series. One Reddit user even joked that “it wouldn’t be Fortnite if there wasn’t a new bug to send people flying”, while another said that it “Might be what you turn into when going into the dumpster to help hide your avatar from view”. Epic Games are yet to respond to the issue but, given the severity of how it can impact on matches, it’s fairly likely we’ll see them address the problem in a patch soon. The next update is expected on October 22, although this will likely only be a content update, so may not include any bug fixes. Stay tuned to Dexerto to follow all the latest news and leaks regarding Fortnite Chapter 2.

Fortnite Chapter 2’s Black Hole was “most viewed gaming event ever” – Dexerto
Fortnite Chapter 2’s Black Hole was “most viewed gaming event ever” The season-ending Fortnite event ‘The End,’ which saw the battle royale’s long-standing map and the title sucked into a black hole for two days, was the “most viewed gaming event ever” across Twitch, YouTube, and Twitter, according to Epic Games. In one of the biggest moves Fortnite has ever seen, Epic Games made the bold call to literally wipe the battle royale’s map from existence to close out Season 10, before taking the game offline and going dark on social media. The groundbreaking event saw millions glued to streams on their computers and phones as they watched a 48-hour broadcast of a black hole, waiting for any news of where Fortnite had gone, and what Chapter 2 would eventually look like. As it turns out, it may have been one of the most-watched video game events in history, with Epic revealing more than 1.7 million Twitch viewers tuned in to either the game’s official Fortnite stream, or their favorite content creators, during the event’s peak. “That’s the platform’s peak concurrent record on a single game category,” the game developers proudly told The Verge in regards to the event’s record-breaking broadcast numbers. Fortnite was temporarily destroyed by a black hole during The End. On Twitter, the numbers exploded to similar levels, peaking at 1.4 million concurrent spectators. The black hole garnered more than 50 million minutes watched, and 42.8 million views in total, making it the “most viewed gaming event on Twitter,” according to Epic. Both Twitch and Twitter were dwarfed by YouTube’s massive popularity during the two-day livestream, with the website hitting 4.3 million concurrent viewers across all channels. While Fortnite’s record-breaking moment clocked up the biggest live viewer count for any gaming event, the black hole was left behind by one of pop’s biggest names. Read more: Epic responds to Slurpy Swamp health bug – Beyoncé currently holds the record for the most concurrent viewers in a live YouTube event, with Queen B cracking more than 458,000 for her 2018 appearance at Coachella, which the music and arts festival aired in its entirety. Pop queen Beyoncé has Fortnite beat in regards to YouTube’s concurrent viewers record. Fortnite certainly still holds the crown for gaming moments, however, with Epic’s daring event even shattering recent esports viewing records, which have been on the rise in recent times, as well as other past moments for the globally-popular battle royale. In comparison, Tyler ‘League of Legends World Championship hit a 2.1 million viewer-high during a do-or-die group stage clash between SK Telecom T1 and Royal Never Give Up on October 13, according to EsportsCharts. Epic has not yet revealed how many players were in-game when the black hole event first began, but considering the hype that was built around the mysterious ‘The End’ moment for the game, it’s likely a significant portion of the player base logged on to see it live. Fortnite is forging new ground with Chapter 2 following its black hole event. And now, Fortnite seems to be once again rising in popularity. While major streaming stars like Dr Disrespect, Michael ‘shroud’ Grzesiek, and Turner ‘Tfue’ Tenney all seem to have grievances with Chapter 2, it’s clear the event has breathed new life into the battle royale. Now it’s just a waiting game to see if Epic, or any other game developers, can bring out something that will top the record-breaking moment that was The End.

Fortnite ‘Chapter 2’ allegedly leaked on app store with all-new map – Dexerto
Fortnite ‘Chapter 2’ allegedly leaked on app store with all-new map Epic GamesUsers on the Italian version of Apple’s App Store have apparently found images that show “Fortnite Chapter 2” will be coming to the game as part of the Season 11 update, with a brand-new map included. Fortnite Season 10 is winding down to a close, with a major event scheduled to take place on Sunday, October 13 involving a rocket and the mysterious Visitor character. Now, Italian iPhone users have apparently found evidence that the game will be entering its ‘second chapter,’ with new artwork added to the App Store ahead of the launch of Season 11. Posted on Twitter by popular leaker ShiinaBR, an image of the Italian App Store features what appears to be three brand-new default characters, standing on a hill surveying what appears to be a majorly updated map for the 11th season of the popular battle royale title. In the image, a new landscape, with a large river running through it, spreads far into the horizon, with a new city on the right-hand side, and what looks like a lighthouse far off in the distance, giving players their first look at possible points-of-interest that will be included when the Season 11 update drops. On the river appears to be boats, which could be the new vehicle for Season 11, and could indicate that much of the map is covered in water, and can be used as a rotation tool. Perhaps we may also see a nautical theme for Season 11, to match the proposed water-covered map. SEASON 11 LEAK: Apparently Apple uploaded the first Season 11 image too early to the App Store! This image says something about “”Chapter 2″” of Fortnite and we’re clearly seeing a new map! pic.twitter.com/cStR1F6O8Z — ShiinaBR – Fortnite Leaks (@ShiinaBR) October 11, 2019 Unsurprisingly, many have questioned the validity of the image, but a post on the FortniteBR subreddit claims to show the image being used on the App Store, via a screen recording of their iPhone searching for the game. The users is seen entering “Fortnite” into the search bar, and when the application is found, shows the image of three default characters as a thumbnail for a video, although once the trailer does begin to play, it shows images from Season 10 of the game, with already established POIs like Pleasant Park visible. At the time of writing, Epic Games have yet to confirm that Fortnite Chapter 2 is on the way officially, but the time of the leak matches up with The End event, which many believe will signal a fresh start for the game following the game’s controversial Season 10. The event is currently scheduled to kick off on October 13, with the first week of Season 11 to follow, although an official date for its start has yet to be confirmed. Many believe that it may kick off immediately after The End event, but again, it has not been confirmed by the developers. This article was updated at 10:43 AM EST on Friday, September 11, 2019.

Epic Games announce Fortnite Championship Series for Season 10 Epic GamesEpic Games revealed the next stage of Fortnite competitive play following the World Cup and it will be the Championship Series that begins with Season 10. During a break of the action during the Fortnite World Cup, it was revealed the Championship Series would be coming in Season 10 and it will feature millions of dollars up for grabs, as the World Cup. “We will be debuting the Fortnite Championship series,” said Sundown. “This will give players a chance to compete against the best of the best where every single result matters with a leaderboard to track results over the course of a season.” “Follow your favorites players on their quest to become the first season champions with millions of dollars at stake.” Epic Games didn’t reveal all of the information about the new competitive format but it does sound like the pro community won’t be going away after the World Cup as Epic shows they are still very well invested in the esport side of things. As Season 10 rapidly approaches, we expect to hear a lot more about what Epic Games have in store for this mode. It’s exciting for players to have something to look forward to after the World Cup since this was looked at as the last major payday for many players for a while. Fortnite esports have been largely considered hit or miss but considering the extremely high viewership the World Cup was able to pull it, it’s clear there is an audience for it so Epic will look to keep improving things going forward. One thing that makes Fortnite so interesting is players from all across the world have an equal opportunity of getting a chunk of a prize pool and the Championship Series sounds like it’ll be the same. We still don’t have an official launch date for Season 10 but Epic said a teaser for it would be revealed at the World Cup so stay tuned for that.

Fortnite ‘Chameleon’ skin concept would allow players to blend into the scenery – Dexerto
Fortnite ‘Chameleon’ skin concept would allow players to blend into the scenery Epic GamesFortnite fans are starting to get really creative when it comes to mixing elements found in the game to make some incredible concepts that would blend perfectly well into the battle royale’s landscape. The latest update to Fortnite released on December 6, and brought along sweeping changes to a sizable portion of the map’s biome and is starting to influence some fan-made creations. Uploaded by user ‘ProKira’ on Reddit, an inventive skin concept is shown to have the “reactive” feature seen in some “Epic” and “Legendary” outfits, but this time coming with a twist. ProKira’s Chameleonsy reactive skin is based on its namesake’s ability to adapt its colors to its surroundings. The character model is seen with a fairly standard outfit that isn’t extravagant for the “Legendary” title the skin was given, but that’s because the allure comes from the idea’s malleable appearance rather than its outward appearance. The post features examples for three different landscapes that would influence the player’s character “when entering different parts of the map.” There is green, white and brown that would passively interact with the grass areas, the snow, and the desert, respectively. Other users were quick to point out that the idea would give the player an unfair advantage of camouflage, but the artist was quick to point that every iteration of the skin has noticeable accents that would normally distinguish a player from their surroundings. The Chameleonsy skin is just another example of unique ideas fans of Fortnite have been able to create with the game’s influence.
