Fortnite players find new Easter Egg as viral car crash becomes map landmark Epic GamesEarlier this year, a Fortnite player went viral due to an unfortunate in-game driving incident. In record time, their moment has been immortalized in Fortnite history, with a new Easter Egg. Since Fortnite Battle Royale arrived, Epic Games has worked tirelessly to introduce viral moments from across social media in the game. Look at the Item Shop to see it\u2019s full of iconic poses, dances, and songs people have come to know and love. Outside of the Item Shop, the same can be said about the game itself, as viral gameplay moments are commemorated via Easter Eggs only the dedicated will find and understand. For example, Chapter 3, Season 1 saw a homage to a Whiplash incident caused by two players driving into a Rift. A new landmark has sprouted up in Chapter 5, Season 1, surprising players and the community who discovered the Easter Egg. Fortnite devs add viral car crash in-game as new landmark Earlier this year, a Fortnite player shared a clip to the game\u2019s subreddit, showing an insane driving achievement, as they managed to get their vehicle stuck in between two trees. It was an interesting feat, and nobody thought anything of it besides celebrating the player\u2019s driving skills. A little time passed since the post, and a Fortnite streamer passing by the \u201cscene of the crime\u201d noticed the car was added in as a homage. The response to the discovery was massive, with it eventually getting back to the players who shared the original video. It\u2019s certainly surprising to see how fast Epic Games acted in adding this to the game while loving the fan service. Viewers reflected the latter sentiment: \u201cWow Epic out hear listening to the fanbase. Hellz yeah.\u201d Another replied: \u201cProof that Epic cares about its fanbase.\u201d Another comment shared the bigger picture \u2014 the driver is now a certified Fortnite lore piece. \u201cNow your friend is canon in Fortnite\u2019s lore.\u201d The developers always have their pulse on the Fortnite community, and this moment certainly reflects that sentiment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
