Fortnite will soon receive new updates for the PvE mode “Save the World”. There will be a new game mode, more heroes, and a spooky event with a new area for Halloween.
In Fortnite, everyone is currently talking about the new PvP mode Battle Royale and the dispute with PUBG developer Bluehole. However, fundamentally, Fortnite is still designed for PvE and base building. Therefore, there will soon be more of that, including a new game mode and a fun Halloween event.
New PvE Mode Horde Bash in October
For fans of well-crafted coop monster bashing, there will be a new supply soon. Before October 17, the game mode “Horde Bash” is set to arrive. It is supposed to be a typical horde mode. That means you build a base beforehand and fend off wave after wave of enemies. The enemies will become more powerful through random mutations, but you will receive immediately usable defenses for your fort through victories.
Also included in Horde Bash:
- 4 new heroes
- 9 new weapons
- New Quests
Halloween Comes to Fortnite with Hexsylvania Map
In October, a Halloween event is also set to arrive. The spooky fun will take place in a dedicated region called “Hexsylvania”. Everything there is themed in a spooky look, and there will be new quests and 8 Halloween heroes available.
However, it is still unclear whether the new heroes are actually complete creations or just reskins of known heroes.
More Control Over Loot and Fewer Trolls
Until the end of the year, the developers want to improve some aspects of Fortnite:
- The global chat is supposed to be improved, for example, allowing all players to be seen in the chat, and trolls can be reported directly in the chat for misconduct.
- To deal with trolls and flamers, first, large numbers will be banned. After that, they want to ensure that good behavior in the game is rewarded. A karma system should address this.
- Events are to have quests that promise a specific reward.
- With the December update, there should be a system that allows you to acquire desired items directly through any type of in-game currency.
- It should become easier to obtain certain variants of weapons.
