Fortnite just dropped their 28th season, Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1. And, I’m telling you, it’s epic! With new maps, tools, and passes, the season will run from December 3rd, 2023 till March 8th, 2024.
Plenty Of New Modes
Not one, not two, but three! Teaming up with other heavy-hitters of the gaming industry, Epic Games is dropping three new game modes. First up is LEGO with LEGO Fortnite, a free survival-crafting mode.
Any guesses on what this mode will have? Yep, LEGO minifigures! And, for over 1200 Fortnite characters! Officially launching on December 7, you can grab free LEGO-themed skins and build LEGO structures in this mode.
Ever Played Car Soccer?
Car soccer is coming to Fortnite! Rocket League is a part-kart-racing and part-vehicular soccer which is now collaborating with Fortnite for Rocket Racing. Once it launches on December 8th, you can get your hands on customizable vehicles and hit speed boosts on a bunch of tracks.
And, There’s Some Rock Too!
The third one, Fortnite Festival, is hitting the stage on December 9th. It’s a collab between Fortnite and Rock Band, offering a co-op music creation mode. You can get your favourite characters jamming and making music and also explore a variety of instruments and tunes.
Oh, and you know what’s epic about it? A crossover with The Weeknd! Can you believe it? So, download the game from the Epic Games website and try it out.
What Else Is New?
Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1 is introducing a Helios map to the game for the first time. Explore new places of interest like Hazy Hillside and Rebel’s Roost and encounter trains and new off-roaders. The arsenal is also getting a boost with new weapons such as SMGs and a ballistic shield.
And, Big Pete’s finally in the house! That’s right. Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1 has added Family Guy’s Peter Griffin as a boss. Along with Peter, you’ll find four other bosses Montague, Oscar, Nisha and Valeria. Before you head out, do check out our story on Kingdom Hearts’ Missing-Link!
