Fortniteleaker HypeX has revealed several details about the next season on their Twitter account. While HypeX doesn’t always nail the timing onFortniteupdates, many of their leaks are of content that Epic Games has added. HypeX has accurately predicted changes to theFortnitebattle royale map in the past, and they may have an idea of what’s to come. According to HypeX, Chapter 4 Season 5 will return players totheFortniteChapter 1 mapthrough the in-game time machine. Based on the leak, players will begin Chapter 4 Season 5 at an early stage of the Chapter 1 map, and it will change to reflect later Chapter 1 seasons by its conclusion.
Although HypeX has stated that the Chapter 1 map is returning toFortnite, they haven’t confirmed if this means the very first map or something that came shortly after. TheFortniteChapter 1 map includes popular locations like Anarchy Acres, Dusty Divot, and Loot Lake. The HypeX leak specifically shows Loot Lake which suggests that the location may return at some point during the next season. Adding some credence to their claims, HypeX has also shown off various Chapter 1 Season 5 items that are scattered around the current island. BecauseFortniteoften uses themesfor each season like this season’s heist theme or Chapter 2 Season 7’s alien one, Season 5 may offer more than just original settings.
WithFortniteChapter 4 Season 5 set to begin in early November, fans won’t be waiting long to see if the leaks are accurate. Because this is a leak and not anofficialFortniteannouncement, everything from HypeX should still be taken with a grain of salt.
