Fortnight Chapter 5 by Caiden Pearson
With the month of December came the new Fortnite season. In the latest season, “Rise of the Elements,” the island has transformed into a vibrant and mystical world. As you drop into the map, you’ll notice some major changes. The landscape is now divided into different elemental zones. Each with its own unique features and challenges. From fiery volcanoes to icy mountains.
But that's not all. Epic Games has introduced a new mechanic called “Elemental Powers.” As you explore the map, you’ll come across special medallions that grant you shield regen. You can get these medallions by fighting one of the five bosses on the map. The bosses that you can fight are Oscar, Peter Griffin from Family Guy, Nisha, Motague, and Valeria. Upon defeating one of these bosses, you will be dropped a specialty weapon and a medallion which regains a shield every second and gives you access to specific vaults.
With this new chapter, it's not just battle royal anymore epic has 3 new and exciting game modes for us to play. The first one that is being released on the 7th of December is a Lego survival mode where you and your friends can party up and survive in a free-roam world, build houses, and fight monsters.
The next game mode to be released on the 8th is a new Rocket League racing mode. You and your friends can party up and compete to see who is the best at racing. There will be a new cosmetics option with this mode; you will be able to get different cars and design them with decals and different colorways.
The third game mode is yet to be determined because nobody has played it. Yet, from what we do know, it's going to be a guitar hero-type game with different featured artists every week. Out of all the three, the Lego game mode is definitely the most anticipated, with 2.3 million playing it on opening night.
The new chapter definitely had a rough start, but with many new and exciting updates, the game has started to pick up speed again.
