Fortnite Got A Lot Messier This Year

Fortnite Got A Lot Messier This Year https://ift.tt/OnyYgkS Epic has spent the past few years trying as hard as it can to will the Fortnite metaverse into being--and now, at the end of 2025, it's actually starting to look like it's getting there. Things are still very messy, but Epic's moves in that direction--which frequently seem to involve trying random things just to see what happens--may have finally borne fruit. Back at the end of 2023, Fortnite attempted to usher in its metaverse in earnest by launching Fortnite Festival, Rocket Racing, and Lego Fortnite all at once. It didn't quite work, because all three were half-baked and missing key features. The only way to play Racing was in Ranked, Festival lacked instrument support and still doesn't have a practice mode, and Lego Fortnite had the feel of a generic early-access survival game wearing Lego clothing.

Friday 'Nite: Fortnite Chapter 4 Rumors


Friday 'Nite: Fortnite Chapter 4 Rumors Seem Legit https://ift.tt/hWo7LyG

We're just a few short weeks into the start of Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 4, but already much of the Fortnite community has its eyes set on something potentially much bigger. Fortnite Chapter 4, once believed to arrive around December 2023, may actually be on the way this December. Why do people think that?

According to those with firsthand knowledge we've spoken to, some dataminers briefly caught wind of "Asteria" in the game's files, and it seems to relate to a new Fortnite map. Some dataminers have even said this plainly, while others haven't been too confident or willing to make such a public declaration.

However, even its name, Asteria, indicates it's a new Fortnite map. This is because of the internal naming convention Epic Games uses when referring to Fortnite maps--they're all named after Greek gods. The first map was Athena, Chapter 2's was Apollo, and the current map is nicknamed Artemis. Asteria, like these other names, is also the name of a Greek god--it even similarly starts with 'A' which seems to be important to Epic, so it's fairly certain by now that Artemis is a new Fortnite map, even if it doesn't explain why players think it's launching this year. For that, there's more to read below
