The new magical cube in Fortnite is not standing still. The cube tips over regularly, covering a large distance. But where is the cube heading?
The new attraction: With a loud bang, a cube emerged in Fortnite. Lightning from a rift struck a spot in the southeast of the map until a huge cube stood there.
The surprise now: The cube is moving. Not in tiny steps or by shifting slightly – no. The cube tips over audibly and dramatically to one side. This can be observed in a clip on Twitter. This has apparently happened multiple times already.
Where does the cube want to go? A player on Reddit has a plausible assumption about where the cube is heading. He believes the cube moves a certain distance in the same direction every day. Since Season 5 still lasts for 30 days, the cube will therefore move that far 30 more times.
The player determined this by building a bridge in the air from point A to point B and repeating it 30 times.
The cube is likely marching towards the center of the map. That is an area slightly west of Dusty Divot.
The cube will likely bring a change to the map with Season 6
What will the cube do when it arrives at its destination? It is assumed that the cube will arrive at its destination by the end of Season 5. There are various theories about what will happen then:
- Some think the cube could trigger a disaster, resulting in a massive transformation of the map. This has tradition. Fortnite players have believed in a disaster and an apocalypse since Season 3.
- Others believe the cube might have a “healing function”, march towards the crater in Dusty Divot, and fill or repair it. This would ultimately lead to a change of the map as well.
What is behind it? With the end of each season, since Season 3, the guessing game begins anew:
- How will the map change for the new season?
- And what tricks and puzzles will Epic use to further fuel the hype around Fortnite?
In Season 3, it was a meteor that fell from the sky. In Season 4, a rocket was waiting to take off. And in Season 5, we have a wandering giant cube.
It looks like this season revolves around the questions:
- Where does the cube come from?
- Where is it going?
- And what does it intend to do when it arrives?
