Fortnite: Battle Royale has constantly fueled theories about the end of Tilted Towers. The controversial settlement still stands, but now it might really be facing an end.
What is the end of Tilted this time? Dataminers have found a curious hint in the code of Fortnite regarding the end of Tilted Towers. The leaked lines mention a scenario where the settlement is flattened. According to dataminers from FNLeak, it could be killer robots.
Plausible Theory or Trolling by Epic?
The Killer Robot Army: According to the files, the bot army is said to be immortal, have unlimited ammunition, and even attack walls and structures. They use rockets, grenade launchers, hand cannons, and a weapon called “LMG”, which is actually the light machine gun that was removed from the game .
Scenario or permanent change? The hints from the code could indicate an event where Tilted Towers is actually destroyed. The only question is whether it is supposed to be permanent or if it’s just a limited-time game mode focusing on the demise of Tilted Towers.
Is Epic just trolling? Another explanation for the code lines could simply be a cheeky joke from Epic. The developers have been teasing the community since Season 3 with the impending end of the place, which they themselves once described as not particularly well thought out.
Tilted Towers is no longer the problem: When Tilted Towers was introduced into the game, a large part of the players went there right at the start because the loot was very good. About half of the players regularly fell in the house battles there. Therefore, the mid-game was often quite dull. However, for some time now, places like Paradise Palms or Greasy Grove have provided good alternatives to Tilted Towers. So, destroying the location is actually no longer necessary.
Tilted Towers never really fell apart during all this time; the same building was just repeatedly destroyed and rebuilt. Especially the somewhat provocative keywords in the leaked code, such as “DestroyTitledTowers” and the extremely exaggerated bots could indicate that the developer is trolling.
If Epic really planned the end of Tilted Towers, they would surely hide it better in the code. This deception theory is also supported by the fact that Epic has tried to confuse dataminers before. Intentional false information has been hidden in the files.
Are robots really coming in the end? On the other hand, an event with battle robots would be a possible theme for Season 7. After all, the robot skin A.I.M. has been seen in all bonus screens of Season 6 since week 7 and seems to be planning something nasty …
