With Fortnite feeling as new as ever , Chapter 3's island manages to feel brand new despite having a good amount of areas and assets from Chapters 1 and 2. The map features four biomes, each with their own unique areas and NPC's to discover. The desert biome feels a lot like the original desert area from Chapter 1, but rockier and canyon-like. Two brand new locations, Chonker's Speedway and Condo Canyon, are some areas the player can land at this biome. The snowy tundra biome takes more than half of the map and has a tease that is exciting to many Fortnite veterans. Iconic landing spot, Tilted Towers, seems to freeze under the snow and will most likely thaw out as the season goes by. Chapter 1 locations Greasy Grove and Shifty Shafts have made a return this season as well. The rest of the landing spots are brand new locations such as Sleepy Sound and Camp Cuddle. These new locations are a sure way to bring in tons of new and returning players to the g
Often referred to as the heart of the X-Men, Kitty would make a fantastic addition to Fortnite's roster of playable heroes. Kitty also had a romantic relationship with Peter Parker in the Marvel Ultimate Universe and could team up with him once again since Spider-Man recently joined Fortnite . Also, since Kitty rarely travels without her trusty dragon, Lockheed, it could be the perfect opportunity for Epic Games to make an accompanying pet for the h
In the PS5 tech demos, Unreal Engine 5 has a unique way of generating worlds that’s different from other engines - most of the time, when games load maps, they have to load a full section to a user’s RAM and then process where the character is on that map to render their surroundings. This can cause pop-in and generally make load times slower as the system has to keep the world loaded but also delete it entirely when moving to a different section of the level. The new world partition system now being utilized in games allow developers to create larger worlds that load procedurally based on what the player can see. All this is done by the engine itself and doesn’t incur a huge performance dip when consistently loading these smaller ar
Arachne and Spider Knight are part of the Arachnid set. Arachnophobia fans, beware of this dark set that can be purchased from the shop as it appears. Players may also want to purchase the matching Web Breaker pickaxe and Hatchling gli
The biggest boon from Unreal Engine 5 is most likely all development-focused, but it allows for game designers to create ideas like Fortnite 's new smooth Marvel-esque web-slinging more efficiently, leading to better experiences. Already, the new map for Fortnite: Chapter 3 seems to be taking advantage of many of the higher-quality resolutions and open-world possibilities. The game's consistent update strategy and integration of popular IPs require a quick turnover time. The new engine could allow for more major overhauls to maps and better performance for creative m
One of the biggest reveals of Chapter 2 Season 8's live event was Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson being shown as the voice actor for the Foundation, a prominent character in Chapter 1 and 2's cinematics. The Foundation is a special skin that can be unlocked separately from the battle pass. There is no way to unlock the titular character, with his release date being February 3, 2022. There seems to be both a helmet and no helmet style for the skin, as w
Another new mechanic that has not technically been released yet is web-swinging.

Fortnite 's web-swinging has been widely praised by fans, even being compared to web-swinging in games like Marvel's Avenge
Rogue and Gambit have a lot in common. Apart from their enduring romantic love for each other, both are roguish heroes with suave attitudes and dangerous powers. They are also both characters that owe a lot of their popularity to the 90s X-Men animated series. Gambit, whose iconic look has made playable appearances in games like Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 & 3 _ , would make for an excellent addition to _Fortnite, with his energy staff also included as a pickaxe skin. Rogue, who is arguably the more popular of the two, having been a main character in the live-action X-Men films, hasn't been playable in nearly as many games as Gambit but is still an indispensable member of the team that many fans would love to
