Fortnite Summer Updates are famous for revamping existing landmarks or points of interest and they usually offer exclusive rewards, new features, and exciting decorations that depict the summer vibe for players.

The Summer Escape event in the last chapter was an exciting Summer Update that revamped the famous Sunswoon Lagoon to introduce a host of summer-themed items like ice cream cones and rare loot. Keeping this in mind, the upcoming update could also likely follow the same path.
