What’s new? In a few days, the 8th season of Fortnite will start. Now the developers are gradually releasing hints for fans about what players can expect in the coming weeks. And the pirate theme is becoming increasingly likely.
Twitter user EribertoInc combined the first two teaser images and shows that a skull is emerging:
Already the first teaser of Season 8 hinted at pirates. It was said that the X marks the spot. There was also talk of a lost treasure. Additionally, a typical pirate’s hook is shown in a banner.
The banner for the new trailer shows a snake. This also fits with the text that starts with “Sssomething”. The multiple use of the letter “s” is meant to indicate the hissing of a snake, which is known as a typical snake sound.
Now fans are thinking of snakes and pirates. This is also supported by the fact that Fortnite has announced something that comes “with the waves”. So these could be pirates arriving on ships.
What do the eggs have to do with it: In recent weeks, eggs on the Fortnite map have repeatedly sparked discussions. There were even expectations that dragons would come to Fortnite through the eggs.

The new teaser for Season 8 was retweeted by Donald Mustard, the Creative Director at Epic Games. As his only comment, he posted the egg emoji. For many players, it is now clear that the eggs on the Fortnite map are not dragon eggs, but snake eggs.
Now fans are eagerly waiting for what Fortnite will announce in the next teaser for Season 8. What theme are you hoping for?
