The Biggest Changes and Additions in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1
Fornite Chapter 5 Season 2’s Theme Has Leaked
ForniteChapter 5 Season 2 could be Greek Mythology themedaccording to the well-known leaker Hypex. RecentFortnitesurveys have made multiple references to Greek mythological figures and there are some other indications that this may be the case. Greek Mythology inspired skins could fit into the game’s aesthetic well and, if they prove popular, it could lead Epic to pull figures from other pantheons in the future. Mythology is a rich source of content, so this rumor makes sense, though it should still be taken with a grain of salt. Other leaks have hinted at new content for the game’s other permanent modes as well.
Lego Fortnite Ninjago Leaks
Another set of leaks has indicated thatNinjagocould be coming toFortnite. According to the leaker Shiina,Ninjagothemed content would primarily be for the newLego Fortnitegame mode. This crossover, if real, will add a ton of content to the game. The rumored additions include new buildings, new enemy types, and new bosses. SinceLego Fortniteis a permanent new mode in the game, it makes sense that Lego would want to incorporate some of its bigger properties, likeNinjago. These leaks did not suggest a release date, so if it comes to fruition, it could very well be a part of Chapter 5 Season 2.
Could More Movement Changes Come to Fortnite?
Another set of leaks has indicated that more movement changes could be coming to the game. According to these rumors,Fortnitecould get a rope swinging mechanic.

Players will reportedly be able to climb and rappel down the ropes as well.If this rumor is indeed true, rope swinging and climbing could add a lot to the traversal mechanics ofFortnite. It would be unsurprising to see the mechanic added in Chapter 5 Season 2 accompanying a map update if this leak turns out to be credible.
There are a ton of rumors about what the future of the gamecould hold for fans, but given its success this year,2024 should be another big year forFortniteregardless of if these leaks are credible. The rumored content forFortnite, if correct, indicates that next season could be a big update not just for the Battle Royale Mode but for all the game’s other offerings as well.
