Some elements of the Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 4 live event have been leaked, and dataminers have gone to work trying to make sense of it all. Since the developers use placeholders for names and phrases, decrypting certain lines of code is extremely difficult.
Nevertheless, some community members are trying their best to decipher it all. Given that there's no way of truly knowing what's about to happen, leakers have turned to speculation to address the series of events that may unfold. That said, here's a rundown of the event based on some speculation and confirmation.
Note: Potential spoilers for the upcoming Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 4 live event.

Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 4 live event: Breakdown and spoilers
Based on the files, the event is codenamed "Radish" and may start outside the current island. The first trigger may start with the Rifts above Loot Lake and Grim Gables teleporting players "somewhere."
According to leaker TweaBR, players will be able to focus on The Zero Point. After a brief duration, something will happen, and/or an unknown object will collide with it. Players may also be able to teleport or travel using The Zero Point.
While this sounds like a stretch, considering that Paradigm used it to travel to Reality 6-5-9, this may be possible during the Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 4 live event.
Aside from these mechanics, players will not be able to interact during the event. While this may seem rather odd, this may just be for a brief duration during a cutscene or something similar. They'll also be given a "Low Gravity" effect.
Keeping the event aside, there seems to be a mini-game in place. According to the leaker, there will be 8 NPCs from which players can interact and purchase items/services. They will all have the "Glitch" effect, and a Bounty Board will also be present.
During this mini-game, players will be able to play basketball and fish. There's also a possibility that a prop gun will be made available during this mini-game. Lastly, other in-game items such as campfires, changing booths, and cage saddles will also be present, which will likely be used in some quests.
Take things with a pinch of salt!
Readers must keep in mind that all this information is based on the files found in the game and has been interpreted while keeping certain parameters in place. That said, they may or may not come to fruition in-game.
Given that the developers want to keep things as a surprise, it's possible that none of the above-mentioned leaks will feature in the Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 4 live event.
With all that said, readers should go on a hiatus from social media by the end of November. Despite best efforts, there's always the possibility that some leakers will break protocol and disclose the entirety of the Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 4 live event.
While this may be exciting for certain individuals, on the whole, it ruins the surprise and build-up for Chapter 4. On that note, with less than 11 days to go, readers should navigate social media with the utmost care.
