Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 Rumors

With the variety of high profile crossovers the game has achieved, it feels like almost anything is possible inFortnite, and this has birthed many rumors in the past that have turned out to be true. Although smaller rumors are likely to make themselves known in the coming weeks, the biggest rumor at the moment is claiming that Season 3’s setting will be apocalyptic in theme.
Fortnite Could Get An Apocalyptic Theme
The biggest rumor aboutFortnite’s Season 3 is about the season’s overall theme being based around an apocalyptic scenario. This current Myths & Mortals season has brought theGreek pantheon toFortnite’s world, and with that, a giant war is set to ensue between the gods and those who oppose them. Theories about Season 2’s finale event have some believing that the event will see the events of this war culminate in a climax that has major consequences for the state ofFortnite’s map.
After this war between players and the Greek gods lays waste to the game’s map, theories have suggested Season 3’s map will be transformed into a wasteland. AsSeason 2 adds exciting new characterstoFortnitebased around classic Greek mythology, players will be facing some of the game’s strongest foes yet. Being pitted against the gods will likely see a massive finale that could very well have apocalyptic consequences, and if rumors are true, a wasteland awaiting players in Season 3 seems likely.
One major clue some players have picked up on that gives weight to these rumors is found in the leaked dialogue of a new character, The Oracle. Although the character currently doesn’t have a physical form, she appears as a sentient watery form that floats overthe Scrying Poolsthat can be found throughout the game’s map. Recent leaks have revealed voice lines for The Oracle that speak of scary times on the horizon. There are several ominous lines given to The Oracle, but two of the most telling speak of black skies and choking dust.
WithThe Oracle receiving her own Quests, there will likely be more information given to players in the coming weeks that helps give more clues as to what Season 3 could be. Although these apocalyptic wasteland theories are just rumors at this point, it’s exciting to think about. If a wasteland map is on the horizon, a fight with powerful Greek gods would definitely be the event to make it happen, but only time will tell if these rumors are true.
