Fortnite Chapter 5: Season 2 has just been released, with a theme revolving around Greek mythology called “Myths & Mortals.” Epic Games, the creators of this popular battle royale, have introduced a new battle pass full of exciting skins. Additionally, players can explore new points of interest and utilize new weapons throughout the season.
Exploring Fortnite Chapter 5: Season 2
The new season plunges players into a world where Greek gods like Hades and Zeus reign supreme after Pandora’s Box was opened on the island. Players can catch a glimpse of the battle pass skins, including iconic characters like Korra from “The Legend of Zorra” animated series.
New Locations
Mount Olympus, home of Zeus, boasts a massive monument to the god watching over players. Players can reach the Underworld by crossing the river at Grim Gate, where Cerberus, the three-headed guard dog, awaits. The Underworld, ruled by Hades, is a desolate place despite its flowing streams. Brawler’s Battleground, an arena south of Mount Olympus, is the domain of Ares.
New Weapons
The Thunderbolt of Zeus launcher allows players to rise into the air and unleash lightning bolts. The Gatekeeper Shotgun is a fierce weapon for short-range combat, and the Harbinger SMG offers relentless firepower. The Huntress DMR, Warforged Assault Rifle, and Wings of Icarus are other new weapons available this season. Additionally, be on the lookout for the upcoming Chains of Hades power.
Season 2 also brings back weapons from the previous season, such as the Hammer Pump Shotgun and Thunder Burst SMG. New weapon mods like the Thermal Scope and Speedgrip can enhance your gameplay.
New Battle Pass
The battle pass features an array of skins, including Cerberus, Aphrodite, Poseidon, Medusa, and more. Players have until May 24th to complete this battle pass.
Ranked Zero Build
Epic Games has acknowledged player feedback about queue times at higher Zero Build ranks and is testing a solution to route matchmaking to a wider player pool for shorter queues in North America.
