What Will Happen in Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 5?
Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 5 will feature us being transported back to the Chapter 1 map once again, thanks to some time travel hijinks.
Old-school Fortnite fans will get a blast from the past as we revisit the iconic map that kickstarted the Battle Royale’s success.
Leaker Shiina promises that the season will feature old models and weaponry, but don’t expect it to stick around for long.
After all, Chapter 5 is just around the corner, and the old map will reportedly change rapidly throughout November before the short season ends in December.
