Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 2 Map Changes and Leaks
The Imagined Order has been strengthening its position since the beginning of the Chapter and even established a permanent base on the island. If leaks are to be believed, the Seven and the IO might engage in an all-out war over the control of the island in Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 2.
If the war does take place, it will change the layout of the island drastically.
Leaks reveal that snow can return in Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 2, covering vast areas of the map. Prominent leaker HYPEX speculates that IO is drilling through the map to get to the side players and the Seven currently occupy.
The leaker even shared an image of five locations they suspect will turn into IO bases, preceded by earthquakes.
HYPEX even states that Snow Slone will also make a return in Season 2. Other leaks suggest that a new desert area will be added as well as a POI called Coney Crossroads. However, with no actual confirmation, take this with a pinch of salt.
Earlier, a data miner named Tabor Hill also posted a video describing a supposed war between IO forces and the Seven. The data miner stated:
“We’re going to be at, almost like a war with the IO people. The IO is coming back for revenge. We flipped the map, we made them mad, the beehive has been hit. They’re coming for revenge. So if they’re going to fight us and the Seven, they’re going to need some serious equipment, something like [the drill]."
Aside from the map changes, leaks suggest that a ton of new features and mechanics will come to Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 2, such as the Tactical Overshield, Tactical Sprint, and possibly even a parkour/climbing mechanic called Clamber.
Readers are reminded that none of the leaks are confirmed by Epic Games, so whether these leaks turn out to be true remains up in the air.
