A well-known Fortnite leaker has dropped some exciting hints about what’s coming in Chapter 2 of Fortnite Reload. According to the leaks, fans can look forward to revisiting some of the game’s beloved iconic locations. On top of that, the Combat Shotgun is expected to make a comeback, much to the delight of the community. Plus, there are whispers of a new collaboration with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, which is sure to stir up some major excitement among players.
Recently, Epic Games launched Season 8 under the Fortnite Festival banner, featuring the introduction of Sabrina Carpenter to its renowned island landscape. Meanwhile, Fortnite has also been busy collaborating with the beloved Cartoon Network series Adventure Time. This crossover has brought characters from the show into the game, offering players the chance to acquire themed skins, back blings, pickaxes, instruments, emotes, a glider, and even a vehicle via the Item Shop. Although the crossover has been well-received by many, some fans aren’t thrilled about the cost of these cosmetic items. The characters and their accompanying gear come bundled for 3,800 V-Bucks, but other accessories like back blings, emotes, the glider, and the car are sold separately, with no bundled discount available. Some players see this as a trend of Epic Games upping the prices of its in-game items.
In a recent tweet, spotlighted leaker HYPEX teased fans with a sneak peek of the new mini-map for Chapter 2 of Fortnite Reload. According to the leak, players will once again explore familiar spots like Steamy Stacks, Boomin Base, Logjam Logging, Dirty Docks, Slurpy Swamp, Fort Crumpet, Stilt Town, and Lockdown Lighthouse. While not every location is making a comeback, the map promises an engaging play experience with its slightly reduced scale compared to previous iterations.
HYPEX has also indicated the potential return of the infamous Combat Shotgun to the loot pool in Chapter 2. This raises questions among fans about whether the weapon upgrade system might also stage a comeback. Although upgrades aren’t currently part of Fortnite Reload, they played a significant role in previous chapters, though some argue they might clash with the game’s fast-paced dynamic.
Adding to the buzz, another leak suggests we could soon witness a crossover event between Fortnite and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Rumor has it that new cosmetics will feature favorites like Bebop, Rocksteady, Casey Jones, and Krang. With these exciting updates and more on the horizon, the Fortnite community is buzzing with anticipation for what’s next in this ever-evolving battle royale.
