There have also been a variety of otherFortnite Chapter 3 rumors and leaks based on Season Eight, such as a new futuristic city in Chapter 3 which was depicted in the recently released Tech Future pack trailer. With Chapter 3 seemingly on the horizon and "The End" of Chapter 2, players should make sure to enjoy their final weeks Fortnite. Fortnite Chapter 2 is coming to a close and Epic has some big plans for the upcoming Chapter 3 as well as the Fortnite Season 8 live event. Epic Games have already decided to ditch seasons nine and X, ushering us into a new chapter, which might change the game as we know it. Now, the official countdown timer is live in-game and Epic, after several leaks, has officially announced the Fortnite Season 8 live event, which could easily be one of the biggest players have seen. Here's everything you should know about the Fortnite Chapter 2 finale countdown, event time, and more.
This brings with it the first of the leaked changes and one that will impact the gameplay and the lore moving forward. Though it is unknown how the climactic battle will play out, it has been rumored that FortniteChapter 3 will take place on an island overrun with the Queen's corruption and continued influence. Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 2 is still quite a ways away, but leaks have already begun emerging about the upcoming battle pass. Want to know how Season 2 will impact the ongoing conflict between the Foundation and the Seven? Here's everything we know about Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 2 based on official and unofficial sources.
The seasonal battle pass features cosmetics that are tied to the on-going theme in Fortnite. Knowing the Fortnite Season 3 is set around a 'flood', players can expect skins that match the upcoming storyline. Ultimately this clip doesn't reveal a whole lot of what will be taking place in Chapter Three or during the Chapter Two finale event.
This seemingly leaked footage couldn't come at a worse time for Epic Games after they urged dataminers not to share any of the contents related to this upcoming season from the 19.00 update. So recently, Tabor Hill tweeted about new leaks he got from his anonymous source. Apparently, the sharks he mentioned swim around the water and if you try to fish them, they will pull you in the water and traverse you around the map. Not only this, but in a livestream today, he confessed that there will be multiple new POIs, however, one or two will will be revealed in the middle of the season as the water lowers.
He also went on to saying the skins that were in his previous leak were not confirmed to be Battle Pass or Item Shop skins and that some of them might have been scrapped. If you don't like these leaks then there is no reason to downvote, I didn't make them, Tabor didn't make them, so don't spread hate to me or him, he's just saying what he's told. Leakers have shared some vital information about the upcoming Fortnite Chapter 2 live event and what players can expect during the finale. Fortnite leaker iFireMonkey, in his tweet, states that The Foundation will make a re-entry and have some role during the event. The leakers also mention that the Last Reality can kill us all during the event.
In a video posted on January 4, Fortnite content creator and reliable leaker Tabor Hill had this to say about the upcoming battle pass. "Fortnite" is soon upgrading to Chapter 3, a major change in the game's landscape since it was first released, and it was said that a map leak has happened, showing the new content of the battle royale before it launches. Epic Games is known for creating specific maps for different crossovers that would focus on special offers, but now comes speculation for the base game's new map look. That's right, a new leak following the v18.40 update has shown a loading screen from the season-ending event that confirms this is the end of Chapter 2. It's a bit earlier than expected as many players would've thought it would go 10 seasons like Chapter 1 did, but there was nothing really indicating things needed to go that way. Chapter 1 had 10 Seasons and after that Fortnite provided the most memorable event in the history of the battle royale game.
The ending saw the island getting sucked into a Black Hole and leaving a black screen available for the players for hours. Chapter 3 is the next-in-line, something that would help in changing the overall structure or foundations of "Fortnite" as a battle royale game, especially with its map and other certain entities in the title. However, its goal is not to change the game all-in-all, but to bring new content for the title especially with a new chapter that is different from its seasons. With multiple indiscretions and rumors about Fortnite's new season, Season 8 has a lot to tell. With the live event Fortnite Season 7, the Rift Tour with the famous Ariana Grande reaching the finish line, the players expect something new.
Given the length of time that Season 8 will cover, we could see more football-related content and a new Premier League season at the beginning of the season. Every season, the Fortnite storyline moves forward introducing new characters to the game, some have considerable impact on the narrative. Here are two Fortnite leaked skins which originally featured during the live event yesterday. It's unclear if these map changes will happen during the next Fortnite live event – scheduled for this weekend – or during the release of Season 3. In case that wasn't enough, the loading screen for this end of season live event has been discovered too. As seen in the image below from @YLSDev, the title reads, "The Chapter 2 Finale".
If you boot up Fortnite now, you will be awarded a whopping 225K XP. IFireMonkey also suggests that a complimentary wrap and loading screen will be presented to players who help defeat the Cube Queen. However, the files are encrypted, so we will have to wait until the live event to find out. There will also be a 16 member party and it seems as if players will need to fend off Cube Monsters in a Save the World-style event. Lately there have been many leaks for Season 3, almost all of them featuring images found in the game files. However today, some in-game sound files have surfaced on Twitter bearing insight for the upcoming season.
Before moving further, it is suggested that you check out our coverage on Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 3 leaks. It feature all the previous mentioned images found in the game files. Thanks to the data included in the current Battle Pass, we can confirm that the current season will end on September 12, 2021, while season 8 will arrive in the game in the early hours of September 13.
By the time the gameplay and trailer are released, we should be well into Season 8. The official release date for Fortnite's next season has not yet been announced by Epic Games. There is a possibility of a female Black Knight skin coming in season 3. It was released as part of the Chapter 1 Season 2 Battle Pass so a lot of players do not have that skin.
A lot of players predicted that we are going back to chapter 1 map because the Travis Scott event showed a glimpse of the previous map. The season follows the climactic ending of the previous season, Invasion. Invasion's ending event, Operation Skyfire, saw the return of Kevin the Cube alongside many other cubes and the destruction of the alien spaceship that sent them spiraling towards the island below.
Following this, the cubes were scattered and eventually carved a path to join at the center of the map and usher in the arrival of the Cube Queen and her army. This has been building to the climactic battle between the loopers of the island and the queen herself. There are strong indications that Jonesy and The Foundation will also be tied to this dramatic conclusion. Epic Games has all but confirmed this conclusion will see "The End" of Chapter 2 and, after a brief downtime, bring players to Fortnite Chapter 3. FortniteChapter 3 is likely releasing next after the final season of Fortnite Chapter 2 begins on December 5, and so far, there have been a number of changes hinted at, rumored, leaked, or datamined. Most of these are rumors and not officially confirmed by Epic Games, but these come from reputable sources within the Fortnite community.
As for its expected release time, we anticipate that to be sometime in the morning on the East Coast of the United States. Eastern, Season 1 of Chapter 3 changed things up by launching at 10 a.m. For now, keeping an eye on that four-hour block of time is the best suggestion we have.
The Daily Bugle POI was also introduced in the leaked Fortnite Chapter 3 trailer. In the Spider-Man comics, this is the popular news organization where Peter Parker works, and he will now be swinging from the roof of the Bugle in the battle royale game. Last black hole brought a ton of speculation about what's happening, but we've lost that this time around because we know it'll be a new chapter. Nevertheless, it'll be a very exciting time in Fortnite because fans have been asking for a new map since day one of this current one, so it'll be interesting to see what Epic delivers. In addition, in early May Fortnite players started discovering puddles scattered about the game's map. Some gamers are wondering whether several map changes will happen during the coming Fortnite live event, followed by something even bigger.
Another key hint is provided by the data miner InTheShade who has found an event playlist known as "The End" in the latest patch. This is very similar to how the first chapter of the massively popular battle royale ended. There isn't an official one yet, but a few fan-made trailers are available on YouTube. Players will probably witness the Halo crossover trailer before there are any teases of Season 6.
The Master Chief collaboration is confirmed and a few leaks show Halo themed cosmetics coming to the game. The ongoing season of Fortnite is filled with skins, events, new characters, and quests. Players enjoyed all that season 7 had to offer and now had the chance with Fortnite Chapter 2 to learn more about the sudden alien invasion that ushered in season 8 and tackles new challenges on the island. Now that the season is in question, we are beginning to think that the number of weeks for the current season has reached double digits, especially given the new items, themes, and run of the Battle Pass from season eight. An official date has not yet been announced, but judging by the length of previous seasons of Fortnite, the new season, Season 8, is likely to be released on September 12, 2021.
The theme could change as the arrival of a new season could mean the aliens have left the game. The central plaza will have blue phone booths similar to the red ones that let players turn into henchmen. The blue phone booths, however, will let the players change skins midgame. The skin changing phone booths could be all over the map or in the central plaza only. Unreal Engine 5 has been confirmed to be used in Fortnite Chapter 3. In-game assets that players can look forward to including creative maps with visually improved environments and features.
On top of that, HYPEX has confirmed that Chapter 3 is launching on December 7, and there will be another black hole event. This time it'll be lasting for two days and if it's anything like the last one, the game will be offline during that time. Also, make sure to check out a one-time-only live event called The Device, now scheduled for Saturday, June 6 at 2 PM ET (please show up 30 minutes early to help secure your spot, space is limited!). Here's the latest news shared by Epic Games regarding the upcoming Fortnite live event on PS4, Xbox, PC, Switch, Mobile and Mac. The development team has also confirmed that the next Fortnite live event time has been set for 2pm ET. With the latest discoveries from the v18.40 update patch, fans are anticipating that Season 8 could be the final season for Fortnite Chapter 2.
There have also been multiple leaks and rumors that are pointing in the same direction. The Fortnite community is buzzing loudly after the leaks of Fortnite Chapter 3 coming sooner than expected. The fans are anticipating the announcement of the Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 1 release date instead of the Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 9 now.
In any case, it seems the PlayStation Store listing has since been changed, but not before FNBRLeaks was able to capture some screenshots and share them with the rest of the world. The new image shows the Fortnite Battle Bus floating over an endless sea with a small deserted island in the background, suggesting that the world has indeed been flooded. This isn't the first time we've heard that Epic may flood Fortnite's map for Season 3, and this leak adds more evidence to that particular rumor. Last week, Fortnite Chapter 2, Season 3 was delayed for the second time, but today, we're getting some indication of what this new season might entail. If a leaked image purportedly from the new season is any indication, it looks like Fortnite's map is about to be flooded, seemingly confirming one of the biggest rumors about Season 3 up to this point.
The map is loaded up with all way of weapons, defensive layer, and other stuff. After landing on the map on to the area based on your personal preference, the objective is to rummage as quite a bit of a weapons store as you're ready to while fighting off foe players/crews. The storm zone keeps on getting smaller at regular intervals, with another chosen safe zone showing up someplace inside the current one. This goes on to push all contending players — who are largely attempting to defeat each other down while this is going on — into a similar general region. Data miners are already trying to extract more information for it to make sense.
Past leaks have stated that Chapter 2 Season 3 might feature an Aquatic Event. It suggests that the map is probably going to get flooded and almost all of it would be under water. If so, then the said 'Doomsday Event' might be responsible for the extra moisture.
Several leaks have indicated Season 3 will feature an underwater theme. The latest leak came from an apparent Season 3 icon in the Playstation store. The image features the Party Bus flying over water with some palm trees seen in the background. Multiple Fortnite Chapter 2, Season 3 leaks and speculations have pointed towards the possibility of a new map. Fortnite content creator @TaborTimeYT has come up with the Season 2 goods alongside @MidaRado. The big news is that another war with The Imagined Order looks set to take place.
There was some belief that the IO had been vanquished as part of the Flipside event at the end of Chapter 2 but it looks like they're still about and ready to launch an attack. Now, on the PlayStation Store – as of this story – there's a brand-new icon that appears to hint a flood could be on the way. It looks like the next Fortnite Season could see you sink or swim – literally. Data-miners and leakers have now leaked new information regarding the next Fortnite update. But based on an educated guess, we should expect thFortnite v12.60 update some time in the middle of this month.
All of this suggests that Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 1 is coming soon, and we might already know its release date. Regardless of that, the community is buzzing heavily, and fan theories are roaming wild. Afterward, the game relaunched with a brand new island having new features and a new Chapter. Now, the fans are expecting that Chapter 2 is set to end with the conclusion of Season 8, and the next Chapter is arriving in the next month.
Before Season 2, Chapter 3 arrives, Fortnite players have a "Doomsday" event called "The Device" to look forward to, which is happening on Saturday, June 6th at 2PM EDT. It's there that we'll likely learn more about Chapter 3, but players are advised to show up 30 minutes early to secure their spot for the event. We'll let you know what Epic reveals this weekend, so stay tuned for more on that.
There are a ton of leaks surrounding Fortnite Chapter 3, starting with a new map. As customary, every Chapter adds a new map and the upcoming Chapter will be no different. Numerous leaks say that the new map will be named the Artemis and around 30% of the map will be submerged in water. Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 3 has a release date which is closing in on us very swiftly. This is because Epic Games is known to release tons of different cosmetics, new features and map changes to the game. The theme for the next season of Fortnite has not been leaked yet, but expect it to be along the lines of the current season where Agent Jones is bringing the best Hunters from every reality together.
What he intends to do once everybody is on the island will be interesting to watch. There has been a lot of crossover for "Fortnite" and Epic Games now, with the many seasons that Chapter 2 has received and remained as the base game there is for its offers. Now, there have been speculations and rumors that the company would soon debut an update of the next chapter of "Fortnite," leaving behind the old for its latest content.
The name of the map could be a hint as well, although Epic Games has already had a primal-themed season. Season 6 of Chapter 2 was centered around animals and hunting, and even though it brought many new amazing things, many players disliked it. Due to the success of the Deadpool collaboration, it's not unlikely that Fortnite will do similar collaborations. It kind of makes sense since the season is going to be water-themed. The leaks discussed here could potentially change as there is still a month left for the new season.
