Fortnite\u2019s yearly Halloween update Fortnitemares has typically been a fan-favorite event that has been widely loved. This year\u2019s update featured a plethora of returning and new additions in the form of spooky-themed quests, cosmetics, rewards, LTMs, UI revamp, and more. Certain classics were unvaulted, such as Candies, Witch Broom, and the iconic Pumpkin Launcher. Exciting new weapons such as the Wood Stake Shotgun and Thorne\u2019s Vampiric Blade were also added, as well as some major franchise collaborations were announced. These involve cosmetic sets featuring Michael Myers, Alan Wake, and Jack Skellington.

Players criticize lack of Halloween theme in Fortnitemares 2023 Many players have blasted the event on socials for the lack of a Halloween theme in relation to decorations and other aspects of classic Fortnitemares that weren\u2019t included this year. One in particular posted to Reddit titled: \u201cI\u2019m getting sick of this.\u201d Although they began complimenting the skins, rewards, and mythic items by saying they are \u201cbetter than last year,\u201d still they were not enough to impress them. \u201cAside from the bus, there is nothing remotely Halloween-themed on the map. No eclipse. No decorations except for tiny buckets of candy. No jumpscare zones. Nothing. I don\u2019t understand why they can\u2019t decorate at the very least,\u201d the player went on to explain. Several fans agreed reflecting similar views as they pointed towards the lack of various features and decorations that were previously loved by the community, yet had not returned. \u201cIt just ain\u2019t Fortnitemares without the Halloween decorations and the slight fog,\u201d a player commented. Another added: \u201cI miss the store from Retail Row and all the decorated houses at Pleasant Park and other POIs. I miss Haunted Hills.\u201d With still weeks to go before Halloween arrives and the Fortnitemares event ending, players aim to wait and see whether Epic Games will add these afore-mentioned features to the game or not.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fortnite players complain Fortnitemares 2023 isn\u2019t \u201cHalloween\u201d enough Epic GamesFortnitemares returned in 2023 with a bunch of spooky-themed content in Fortnite, however, some players have slammed the event for the lack of a Halloween theme.
