The first extended trailer for Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 3 has been released, and alongside it, the first detailed glimpses into things that players can expect to see in-game. While most of the content, such as rideable raptors, Optimus Prime Outfit, and Vine were expected, other things were not. That being said, players are in for a surprise next season.
They will be able to cosplay as a new variant of Doctor Slone nicknamed Sand Slone, take charge of the Lewis gun, and hunt down new variants of Llamas present on the island. Here the highlights from the Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 3 trailer.
Rideable Raptors and five other highlights from Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 3 trailer
1) Rideable Raptors

As seen from the Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 3 trailer, raptors will feature as rideable mounts in-game. Players will likely be able to replenish their stamina meter by feeding the creatures meat. It's also very possible that they will be able to attack opponents while being used as mounts.
2) Optimus Prime Outfit and Mythic (Cybertron Cannon)
Optimus Prime has been officially showcased as an Outfit for the upcoming Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 3 Battle Pass. However, that's not all that was showcased in the trailer. Alongside the Outfit, players will also gain access to a new Mythic (Cybertron Cannon). It seems to be a heavy weapon or launcher of sorts.
3) Grinding on Vines
Similar to Grind Rails, players will now be able to grind on Vines in Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 3. It will consume stamina to Grind faster and will likely allow players to mitigate fall damage when jumping off of them. It's possible that as time progresses, the island will be covered with them or they may replace Grind Rails altogether at the start of the new season.
4) Sand Slone
After a lot of rumors and speculation, a new version of Doctor Slone, nicknamed Sand Slone, has finally been showcased in-game. This is her first appearance after being forced to flee towards the end of Chapter 3 Season 2. However, having said that, her role in the storyline is still largely unknown. The only thing that can perhaps be said with some certainty is that she's not friendly.
5) New weapons
Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 3 will feature two new weapons. The first is a machine gun (Lewis gun), while the other is a lever-action rifle. There's no other information that's currently known about them at this point in time. While they have been featured in the trailer, they may not appear in the loot pool at the start of the new season.
6) New Llama variant
Last but least, new types of Llamas will be getting added to the game next season. They glow to a certain extent and have been re-skinned to blend in better with the Jungle theme of the upcoming season. However, in all probability, the type of loot they drop will remain unchanged.
