Game-breaking Fortnite \u2018instakill\u2019 bug appears amid Chapter 5 launch Epic Games \/ FOXFortnite Battle Royale players have been left anxiously waiting to play with Family Guy\u2019s Peter Griffin in-game and level up the Battle Pass, but right before Chapter 5 started, a terrible issue reared its head. Chapter 5, Season 1 sent most of the community into a long player queue after the Eminem Big Bang event closed up. Epic Games announced that they would be replaying the event, too, for those who missed it due to no fault of their own. The Weeknd will also headline a concert in the game to kick off a new Festival mode, in due course. However, before diving into the new season and all the content that comes with it, fans were left concerned by a clip showing one location can eliminate you instantly in the Battle Royale mode. Fortnite Chapter 5 launch accidentally patched instant-death location As seen in footage shared by Reddit user SpiritedComparison55 on December 2, an instant death location was found on the old Fortnite map. It was found at Loot Lake when driving a bike into a hut, colliding with a wall. As soon as it happened, they were stunned to see the \u2018placed 30th\u2019 icon appear, signaling it was the end of the road in their quest for a Victory Royale. One player replied: \u201cLmao me and my friend were playing we\u2019re doing this yesterday coming from the other side and he was on the back and I just died we were so confused.\u201d A second said when it happened to them previously, they had just assumed somebody had a great sniper shot. The post gained traction on the day of the game\u2019s Chapter 5 launch, which is set to completely shake up the content in Epic Games\u2019 title. The Season 1 patch notes revealed weapon mods, Peter Griffin, and a new train system is arriving in the update \u2013 and luckily for players, it should automatically patch the game-breaking, insta-death location as well. Another user replied to the clip: \u201cDon\u2019t worry bro, they\u2019re fixing this by changing the whole map\u2026\u201d For more information on Fortnite Chapter 5, Season 1, check out our news page here.
