Other new items in Chapter 5 Season 2
In addition to the new weapons and Olympian Power Mythics, Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 will likely feature new Medallions, replacing the Society Medallions from Chapter 5 Season 2. These new medallions will be titled "Aspects," and players will be able to acquire these by eliminating the corresponding bosses.

- Aspect of Combat: Imbues ranged weapons with increased damage.
