Everything we know about Fortnite Season 8
Fortnite Season 8 will be wet. Besides general idea of the release date, this is about all we actually know, but if the hints buried in previous Fortnite battle passes are any indication, the wetness will extend to more than a simple spring thaw. Epic is getting good at not-so-subtly hinting where future Fortnite seasons are headed, and unless we're all being tricked, Season 8 will have a lot to do with water.
The hints have been trickling in for a while now, and with Season 7 at the halfway point, in-game events are likely to start hinting at the future of Fortnite soon. Read on for our theories on what to expect from Fortnite Season 8.
When does Fortnite Season 8 start?
The Fortnite Season 8 start date Feb 27 or 28, announced via the Share the Love event on Epic's Fortnite news page.
Fornite season 8's Battle Pass will be free, if...
Fortnite season 8's Battle Pass will be free, assuming players who want it can complete 13 free Overtime challenges by February 27. The idea is you can save a few V-Bucks, and get a bunch of outfits in the process.
What map changes will arrive with Fortnite Season 8?
All signs point to some wet new areas.
With spring, I'd wager we see a deep thaw run through the icy parts of the map. Greasy Grove is currently submerged in a frozen lake, and you can see the buildings, chests, and weapons just beneath the surface. Maybe we'll be swimming there soon.
A quick look at the Season 7 battle pass hints at a wet spring, too. A snowman spray melts in agony, an octopus icon becomes available at tier 84, a blazing sun at 62, and previously scuba-diver skins could be the earliest hints at an underwater environment. More blatantly, this idiot fish skin is the most blatant hint at future underwater theming.
Fortnite's snowy environment was teased for months through skins and battle pass rewards, so it's not a long shot to think Epic might be doing the same for an underwater area.
A big icy orb recently appeared above Polar Peaks, from which the Ice King summoned a massive copy of himself and covered the entire map in fresh coat of snow.
The ice at the center of the castle at Polar Peak also melted, revealing the Fortnite Season 7 secret skin: the prisoner. He's warm-looking magma boy, which is probably why everything melted.
