The new trailer for Season 8, Chapter 2 in Fortnite is online. The trailer suggests how the world of Fortnite looks after the live event at the end of the season – and it seems a lot has been destroyed.
What’s happening in Fortnite right now? On Sunday evening, September 12th, Season 7 in Fortnite came to a crashing end. The live event “Operation: Skyfire” took place at 10:00 PM as a grand finale of the season and led to the explosion of the mothership hovering above the island.
At the same time, the familiar Chaos Cube “Kevin” was reactivated – along with countless other cubes. They apparently landed on the Fortnite island together with the spaceship. At least that’s what the new story trailer released by Fortnite for the upcoming Season 8 shows.

What the trailer shows: In the new trailer, a group of Fortnite characters moves through the crash site of one of the spaceships. There, they find the seemingly deactivated Kevin – who soon comes back to life and goes on the attack.
Afterwards, countless creepy figures emerge from the wreckage, surrounding the group and attacking them. Despite their resistance, things do not look good.
Because: The camera pans up to reveal that the surroundings are completely destroyed and shrouded in darkness. Numerous Kevin clones activate and begin to roll across the ground. Then, the name of the new season is shown: “Cube Chaos”.
Finally, the trailer depicts an underwater scene: Here we see the Seven member “The Foundation” lying on the ground. There have long been rumors about this character, that Hollywood star Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson lends his voice to him – now it seems like he wants to intervene in the story again. Because the last scene of the trailer shows his helmet sending out life signs again.
