I do know Apex Legends has shaken up the scene, however it feels somewhat bit on-the-nose that Fortnite Battle Royale is actually cracking up underneath the stress. Epic’s all-consuming final man standing shooter is gearing up for an additional season, beginning on February 28th, which suggests there’s modifications coming to its ever-shifting battlefield. Such change has beforehand been led to by bizarre inter-dimensional antics and a wandering glacier, however this one appears somewhat extra mundane – earthquakes, shaking the whole map and leaving jagged tears within the floor.
Right now, there’s nothing too earthshattering concerning the earth actually shattering. Slightly little bit of shaking adopted by a everlasting crack within the floor, however it’s undoubtedly simply the beginning. Epic do like their slow-burn setups, from mysterious countdowns and failed missile tests to a giant purple dice slowly walking its way across the battlefield. There’s no story behind all of it – no lore, rhyme or cause – simply one thing to brighten up an in any other case static game-world, however it’s appreciated nonetheless. Anyway, gamers on Twitter have been sharing footage of the earthquakes themselves (admittedly not a lot to take a look at) and the aftermath.

So, what may these quakes be resulting in? My intestine feeling is that we’ll be seeing a map enlargement – have the crack unfold all the way in which down the map, break up the setting and have some new and attention-grabbing biome fill the void created. Still, it may very well be something. I by no means would have anticipated in-game cutscenes and cosmic butterflies either. Epic clearly have a deal with on this stay occasion malarkey, even when the recent in-game concert wasn’t fairly as groundbreaking (sorry) as they’d have appreciated it to be.
The earthquakes are taking place on and off in Fortnite Battle Royale now, with every thing possible kicking off on February 28th and the beginning of Season 8. Epic are giving away the upcoming Season 8 battle pass free this time. Snap it up, when you haven’t already. The game, as all the time, is free-to-play.
