Fresh Fortnite Leak Teases an Exciting New Perspective After the Widely Touted Zero Build Feature

The world of shooter video games is a lot about view perspectives. While a section of us prefer to experience the in-game world realistically, others are more comfortable with a third-person viewpoint. Most shooter video games usually stick to one view perspective to set a trend.

For example, fans have always known Fortnite as a ‘third-person shooter’. But recent speculations have pointed at a chance that Fortnite may be receiving a first-person camera mode very soon!

To accommodate a greater audience, some video game developers strive to add both view perspectives in separate modes. However, some popular shooter games like Counter-Strike: Global Offensive and Call of Duty have always hosted first-person camera modes only.

Fortnite’s popularity is well-known to its fans and beyond. However, people who prefer a first-person shooter will rather stick to playing Apex Legends or Call of Duty. It is possible that Epic Games wanted to bridge that gap!

According to a reliable source, a new leak has revealed some evidence in favor of Fortnite receiving a first-person camera mode. The source then went on to clarify that it’s just a leak and could possibly be false. But a leak is enough to hype the huge community of Fortnite!

Fortnite leak nudges at an upcoming first-person camera mode

A popular Fortnite informant of the name HYPEX has revealed an in-game picture of what looks like Fortnite in first-person mode. According to him, Epic Games commenced working on a first-person camera mode for Fortnite when the update for Season 3 kicked in.

Hypex also mentions that there is no further information to validate the leak. The leaked in-game picture shows that the presumed first-person mode is still in early development, as he explains. Moreover, Hypex and other fans seem to be very excited about how this upcoming mode could make things better for the Zero Build mode.

The Zero Build mode in Fortnite is basically what its name suggests. It is a tactical, fast-paced Battle Royale and has everything Fortnite Battle Royale has, except building. As a result, a first-person mode in Zero Build would definitely make it more immersive.

Some things could certainly become a bit off with a first-person camera mode. For example, Fortnite has intriguing player skins and in a first-person mode, players wouldn’t be able to view their costumes. It could be a setback for many fans.

Moreover, a considerable section of the community suffers from motion sickness. They would definitely not like a first-person camera mode.
