In the latest chapter of Fortnite, the gaming world is ablaze with the arrival of Chapter 5 Season 2: Myths & Mortals. This season, Pandora’s Box has been opened, bringing Olympus to the Fortnite Battle Royale Island. Here’s a comprehensive guide to what players can expect from this exciting new chapter.
Legendary Locations:
Mount Olympus: Towering over the landscape, Mount Olympus serves as the epicenter of this mythological invasion. Home to Zeus, players will experience the awe-inspiring presence of the king of the gods.
Grim Gate: To access “The Underworld,” players must cross the river at Grim Gate, where the fearsome Cerberus guards the entrance. This three-headed hound presents a formidable challenge for adventurers.
The Underworld: Delve into the depths of Hades’ domain, where the underworld awaits. Despite its once-flowing streams, the land is now parched and desolate, mirroring the desolation of its ruler.
Brawler’s Battleground: Ares, the god of war, invites players to test their mettle in the Brawler’s Battleground arena. Located south of Mount Olympus, this arena promises intense battles and legendary rewards.
Chaos Upon the Land:
With the arrival of the Olympian gods comes chaos and destruction. However, players have the opportunity to harness the powers of these ancient deities for themselves.
New Mythic Powers:
Thunderbolt of Zeus: Ascend into the skies and unleash the power of lightning with the Thunderbolt of Zeus. Use this Mythic power strategically to turn the tide of battle in your favor.
Flight of the Gods: In addition to their formidable powers, players can also take to the skies with the Wings of Icarus. Soar above the battlefield and rain down destruction on your foes, but beware of the risks of flying too close to the sun.
New Season Weapons:
Gatekeeper Shotgun: Crafted by Hephaestus for Cerberus, the Gatekeeper Shotgun packs a punch with its rapid-fire capabilities. Dominate close-quarters combat with this formidable weapon.
Harbinger SMG: Channel the relentless power of Hades with the Harbinger SMG. Despite its high recoil, this weapon delivers devastating firepower, making it a force to be reckoned with.
Huntress DMR: Inspired by Artemis, the goddess of the hunt, the Huntress DMR is perfect for long-range engagements. Use this precision weapon to pick off enemies from a distance.
Warforged Assault Rifle: Embrace the fury of Ares with the Warforged Assault Rifle. With its high damage and rate of fire, this weapon is ideal for aggressive playstyles.
Weapons from Last Season:
Players can also expect the return of weapons from Chapter 5 Season 1, including the Hammer Pump Shotgun, Frenzy Auto Shotgun, Nemesis AR, Thunder Burst SMG, Reaper Sniper Rifle, and Ranger Pistol.
Myths & Mods:
Enhance your arsenal with new weapon mods, including the Thermal Scope and Speedgrip. These mods offer unique advantages in combat, allowing players to customize their load-outs to suit their playstyle.
The Myths & Mortals Battle Pass:
Unlock a wealth of rewards with the Myths & Mortals Battle Pass, including exclusive outfits inspired by the gods of Olympus. From Cerberus to Zeus, these legendary skins offer players the chance to embody the power of the gods themselves.
