You take your eyes off Fortnite Battle Royale for one minute, and the kaiju kicks off. Also a kaiju will get added. And an enormous mech.
The goliaths haven’t really carried out something but, however the timer floating within the sky suggests they’re about to. As does the way in which we’re nearing the tip of season 9, and the way season finales have traditionally not been variety to the individuals of Forniteland.
The kaiju has historical past. We first glimpsed it again in Polar Peak through the finish of season eight, when an asteroid crashed into the icesheet and woke it up. Two weeks in the past, the kaiju buggered off with a fort on its again. It’s now been noticed swimming about off the island’s shores, all ominous like. I couldn’t get a glimpse of it myself, however right here’s a vid from Reddit user TimSad.
I just now finally got to see the “Cattus” monster for myself. Caught him coming up from the NW part of the map. from r/FortNiteBR
In response, the individuals residing on the island, one way or the other nonetheless able to mass development tasks regardless of residing in a spot the place actually everyone desires to shoot actually everyone else, are constructing a Pacific Rim model mega-mech. I went and had a poke at it.
Those are wings, proper? Wings with jets on ’em?
For bonus enjoyable, be aware that it’s being constructed within the caldera of the volcano that worn out Tilted Towers way back in season four. Previous calamities have included the entire collapse (and rebuilding) of modern civilisation and a butterfly hatching from a large purple dice earlier than buggering off to a reality beyond our comprehension.
The timer is because of hit zero at 7pm BST (11am Pacific) on the 20th of July. At this level I wouldn’t be stunned if they’ve a cuddle and come out hybrids that rework the game into some sort of baby-mechagodzilla daycare simulator.
