Fortnite: Battle Royale might be on the brink of an epic change at the end of Season 5. The purple space cube has destroyed a building for the first time. And now it is by the shore of Loot Lake.
What’s up with the cube? Since August 24th, a massive purple cube has been rolling through the Fortnite world. The cube appeared out of nowhere and almost cost professional streamer Ninja his game.
Since then, the cube has been rolling on seemingly random paths and occasionally leaving runes that generate anti-gravity fields.
The cube has been friendly so far: Remarkably, the cube has been doing no harm. It only retaliated with energy discharges when attacked. In return, it regenerated shields when approached.
Whenever the cube approached a settlement, it took a detour and spared the buildings.
Therefore, the cube has been affectionately nicknamed “Kevin” by the Reddit community and referred to as a “gentle giant” who means no harm.
Until now.
Cube devastates Tilted Towers
The cube shows its true colors! By now, hardly anyone should believe in the cube’s good intentions. Because the cube revealed its true nature during a visit to the controversial city of Tilted Towers.
Oh no, not the boutique! Without any need and with pure intent, it simply tipped over a building and destroyed it halfway. But it wasn’t just any shack or wooden hut that had to pay the price.
Specifically, the brand new boutique, which had just emerged from a huge construction site, was devastated by the space cube. Now only half of the building remains after the space cube treated the boutique like Godzilla treats Tokyo.
Is the season finale coming soon?
Where is the cube now? The cube has now passed Tilted Towers without causing further damage and is ominously standing at the shore of Loot Lake, the central but somewhat boring spot in Fortnite.
Is the predicted lava event about to happen? Curiously, it is exactly at the spot that has been predicted by fans for weeks and confirmed multiple times through leaks by data miners.
This suggests that the cube might soon tip into the lake and perform a sort of transformation. The rumors speak of a lava lake that would then form.
And the last title image from Season 5 reveals that the cube holds a dark secret.
Finale of Season 5 today? We will see if the cube performs one last tip today and drastically changes the Fortnite world throughout the day. After all, Season 5 only has a few days left and ends on September 24, 2018. It is indeed high time for the finale.
Update 11:30 PM: The cube has indeed tipped into Loot Lake.
