Fortnite Chapter 2, Season 4 Leaks: New fishing system

YouTuber Tabor Hill recently released a major Fortnite Chapter 2, Season 4 leak video, where he explains the brand new fishing system which could be making its way to the game very soon.

Describing an ultra rare 'Midas Fish', he goes on to explain its utility in-game:

Basically there's gonna be upgraded fishing rods and only these rods can be used to catch certain types of fish. I'm going to mention just one fish- the ultra rare Midas fish. If you catch this Midas fish and you eat it, all weapons in your current inventory will automatically turn legendary.

Let’s say you have a full loadout of nothing but Gray Pistols. You catch the Midas Fish, you eat it, you’ll have all Gold Pistols. How awesome is that?

While this certainly comes as an exciting addition, it remains to be seen how rare the Midas fish is going to be. For the time being however, all we can do is wait and see.

As word got around that Midas' fish would be making its way to the game, the online community was quick to react to this latest Fortnite Chapter 2, Season 4 leak:

Epic staff: they keep emailing us about midas lets make him as a fish

From the return of Midas to a rumoured Wolverine skin leak, there have been several interesting theories related to Fortnite Chapter 2, Season 4 so far.

POSSIBLE Leak: Epic were planning to make a Wolverine skin & Wolverine Claws pickaxe, he might be the season 4 secret skin or just an itemshop skin! (this is from a very trusted source)

An upgraded fishing system would certainly make things a lot more interesting in Fortnite's upcoming season, which is rumoured to be Marvel centric.

Data miner HYPEX also revealed an update related to the Thor crossover event:

If this doesn't happen that means epic changed the idea, so please don't be mad at me, but i trust my source because he told me about the comic book before it got leaked

The aforementioned leaks still have a week left to go, fans could not be more excited for the launch of Fortnite Chapter 2, Season 4.
