Epic Games broughtFortniteinto Chapter 3 around this time last year, and now the battle royale is teasing its own map’s destruction with the conclusion of Chapter 3 Season 4: Paradise. The first chapter ofFortniteended in October 2019, and since then, fans have speculated on what to expect from the final event of each chapter. This time, Epic Games may be hinting at a new chapter with the destruction of Chapter 3’s map.TheFortniteTwitter account recently shared a brief video of the battle royale island alongside an announcement that ominously proclaimed, “nothing ever lasts forever.” TheFortniteisland has evolved over the years as Epic Games continued to update the game, with new points of interest like Herald’s Sanctum and Cloudy Condos replacing original locations like Loot Lake or Pleasant Park. WithFortniteChapter 3 Season 4ending on December 3, fans can expect a number of POI changes assuming the whole map isn’t destroyed in the fracture that Epic Games has been teasing.RELATED:Fortnite Leaks Fracture Event DetailsTheFortnitevideo shared with the Chapter 3 announcement begins with the introduction of Paradise, highlighting Rave Cave and the bay surrounding The Foundation statue before the camera zooms out to show the space around the island, which was shown during the last event. As it then shows theFortniteReality Tree, which played a prominent role in Chapter 3 Season 4, the video starts to crack to alter the word Paradise into Fracture, the name of the next season. The clip then swiftly flashes between multiple scenes to show the Zero Point, a powerful chrome tornado, and multipleFortniteskins that are powerlessly watching things break apart, potentially teasing the December 3 event.
Fortnitehas been a popular battle royale since its beta introduction in 2017, but Chapter 3 introduced a new unique way for fans toplayFortnitewith zero build mode, which spiked the game’s popularity once again. Chapter 2 finished with the island flipping in the ocean as the Foundation attempted to escape the Cube Queen’s wrath, but Chapter 3’s island introduced many storyline problems of its own. Because theFortniteZero Point has been a central focus of each season and has been laying dormant at the bottom of the lake above Tilted Towers, it may play a role in the Chapter 3 finale event.
As some players expressed their distaste forFortniteParadise and its map, others simply stated their excitement for the big Chapter 3 event on Saturday and its implications. One eagle-eyedFortnitefan was quick to point out that the announcement video included a glimpse at the two-shot shotgun with a dot sight on it which may be a weapon featured in the new season’s arsenal.
Fortniteis available now on Mobile, PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
