Fortnite players confused as Chapter 5 Season 2 live event chest prematurely opens Epic GamesThe Hand mini-event is live in Fortnite, getting players ready for Chapter 5 Season 2. However, it seems the event is confusing many with reports of it prematurely opening for some players. Chapter 5 Season 2 of Fortnite is nearly upon us, and to hype players up, a new mini-event is taking place. During the event, a giant hand holding what appears to be Pandora\u2019s Box will smash out of the ground by Ruined Reels. After some confusion among the community regarding the event\u2019s debut, it finally happened as the leaks implied it would. Players landing by Ruined Reels will see the hand, and they can shoot the chains to attempt to open Pandora\u2019s Box to initiate the big reveal. However, it seems the event is either bugged, or the steps needed to start the reveal are set way too high, as some players seemingly can\u2019t open the chest, but others can. Fortnite players share event successes amidst community confusion As mentioned, the goal of the event is to break the chains around the chest, which will then free the chest to open and reveal what comes next. However, players loading into the event have reported damage can\u2019t be dealt to it. To clarify, damage numbers are shown, but no damage is actually dealt. Many think this is a community event and that Epic Games set the chains\u2019 HP to around 50 billion. Once the community hits that collectively, then the reveal will happen. However, in response to community speculation, a few players have shared that the chest opened in their playthrough. What happens next is a fiery vortex appears, although we\u2019re unsure of what the vortex holds. uhh i have a question about the event \u2014 Xrayparker (@xrayparker) March 2, 2024 (my friend broke it) pic.twitter.com\/kuI3SpA8Wa Since the event just started, Epic Games hasn\u2019t said anything other than sharing that players should shoot at it. We\u2019ll keep you posted as more information comes to light. For now, keep on shooting away at the chains \u2013 they\u2019ll have to break at some point.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
