The game files have elements for two new weapons. The first is a mini-gun + grenade launcher hybrid. It is called the ‘Heavy Mortar’ and uses rocket ammo.
The second is known as ‘Lazing Machine’. Not a lot of information is available about this weapon as of now.
In Marvel’s crossover of Fortnite, the most awaited skin has been that of Venom. The anti-hero is going to appear in a giant form much similar to the size of ‘Brutus’. Talking about giants, a creator at Epic has leaked the size of Galactus just ahead of the next season. He will probably be larger than Travis Scott from his live concert, and that’s saying something.
Further reveals have also come from another Epic employee. Donald Mustard, Creative Director of Fortnite, recently went on an online podcast hosted by Geoff Keighley, founder of The Game Awards. He said that he will make an announcement related to Fortnite at The Game Awards. Mustard has twice made such announcements at previous editions of the event.
Season 5 will also see the introduce a new in-game currency. ‘Wads of Cash’ will spawn on different locations across the map and might change the economy of the game. It can probably help revive teammates and buy items mid-game.
