Fortnite Last Resort Chapter 4 Season 4 Theme
Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 4 is called Last Resort and will seemingly have a “heist” theme, according to a recent post on the official Fortnite X, formerly Twitter, account.
The post, which reads “Cameras, guards, vaults, and the best team in the business. Are you in?” definitely seems to be alluding to a heist-orientated theme for the latest Season.
This has been further confirmed by Vice President and Co-Founder of Epic Games, Mark Rein, who recently responded to a question asking for a one-word description of the new Season with “heist.”
This isn’t too dissimilar to Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 2’s theme, which focused on spies and espionage. It launched over three years ago on February 20, 2020.

It is possible that Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 4 will see the return of Midas. Many believe that the Drum Gun, Midas’ weapon of choice, that appears in the initial Chapter 4 Season 4 teaser image alludes to this.
However, it is also possible that the Drum Gun is connected to Jules, Midas’ daughter, who recently appeared in Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 1 as Scrapknight Jules.
Additionally, Fortnite Chapter 4 will introduce a new character called Kado Thorne.
They are a mysterious thief who was recently involved in a promotional stunt in which Fortnite influencers had an item stolen from them by Thorne, who left them a card thanking them for adding to their collection.
Kado Thorne is likely a Battle Pass character and a central figure in the Chapter 4 Season 4 storyline. You can see what he looks like in the tweet below:
Another skin was revealed on Fortnite’s official X page, although details surrounding who it could be are scarce.
The only clues we have are the description of the Tweet, which says “Light-fingered or perhaps a more elegant weapon?”
