In Fortnite, the start of a new season is accompanied by leaks and much secret PR input from Epic. But for the start of Season 2, all fans from the community are kept in the dark. Meanwhile, Epic Games remains silent without any hint for the new content.
What does Epic Games say about the new season? So far, nothing, and this makes the players even more anxious. Neither the community nor leakers or influencers know exact details about the upcoming Season 2. Many news regarding new content for Season 2 refer to data that has been read by data miners.
However, Epic has not released anything concrete so far, although today, March 19, the season is officially supposed to end. This is stated in the Battle Pass. This makes the players nervous because they want to know when the first season will finally be succeeded and what new features they can expect in the new part.
Players want information finally
When does Season 1 finally end? Officially, the Battle Pass states March 19 as the end date. That would be today, but neither the official Twitter account Fortnite Status nor the game itself announces a server down.
In addition, a UI programmer from Epic Games deleted a tweet from March 18 (via Twitter.com). In this tweet, he claimed he was looking forward to finally changing his profile background in 48 hours. This is currently adorned with the skins from Season 1. Thus, it is now more likely that the server down will take place on March 20.
What do the players say about the lack of information? Players are annoyed by being kept in the dark. They want information about the new content to build up excitement. Twitter user “josh12266512” has the following to say:
Going into a season with 0 hype is not cool. Complete ambiguity without a transition into a big seasonal switch only leads to a confusing and boring start.
Meanwhile, Fortnite leakers even called on the community to publish their own leaks and teasers. Small scenes from homemade live events to “server down” announcements are being posted, which encourages the players.
They take over the job of Epic and create their own hype. However, keep in mind that these are just self-created video inserts that have nothing to do with Season 2.
What can players expect in Season 2? Many new skins as well as weapon adjustments. Changes to the map and perhaps to the menus would be conceivable. Many new crossovers with other games or stars that could be imported into the battle royale shooter are also possible.
Moreover, a war between IO and the Seven is expected, which will once again plunge the map into chaos.
