The mysterious comet has struck the map of Fortnite with the start of Season 4. It destroyed the location “Dusty Depot” and leaves a crater. The map update also brought a new location in the north, the “Risky Reels”.
What happened? Season 4 has officially launched in Fortnite: Battle Royale and brings some changes to the map. For a long time, a mysterious comet has been circling above the Fortnite map, causing many rumors.
Many players believed that it would destroy the Tilted Towers. Now the comet has finally landed and has indeed destroyed something, namely the location “Dusty Depot”, which was relatively centrally located on the map. It is now significantly changed. The Tilted Towers remain untouched.
Dusty Depot hit by the comet, the new location Risky Reels comes in
What map updates and new locations are there still in Season 4?
- Dusty Depot has been hit and leaves a crater that some jokingly call “Dusty Divot”. A kind of research station is now located there in the middle.
- Hop Rocks: Visit the crater and find glowing rocks everywhere. Use them and take off with low gravity. They also negate fall damage.
- New location “Risky Reels”: Northeast, between the Wailing Woods and the Anarchy Acres, “Risky Reels” has been added.
- Loney Lodge has received a small villa on the east coast
- Moisty Mires has been partially transformed into a movie set
- There are now more small craters to be found on the map
Leak was right! This could mean heavy changes
Can more map updates be expected? A leak from the community, already predicted the destruction of “Dusty Depot”. This leak also indicated that Epic Games is planning more updates for the map on a weekly basis.
If this rumor should also turn out to be true, the Fortnite community can expect several changes in Season 4. The leak predicted that Tilted Towers would be gradually torn down and that Moisty Mires would disappear!
The new cinematic trailer for Season 4 of Fortnite humorously reflects some of the rumors surrounding the comet.
