The developers at Epic began to rework some of the challenges toward the end of the first chapter but in this new chapter they built upon what they have already done and made it possible to advance their battle pass level by completing challenges. According to the Fortnite devs, the new season should be a lot more fun for the players without it feeling like such a grind to complete things which is different than it was before, but only time will tell if this is true. 

As mentioned before with this new release comes a new skins as well as new guns and upgrades. To catch a glimpse of the aforementioned changes there are plenty of videos online allowing players to see and preview some of the new items.

In regards to the weapons, developers have streamlined the arrays to add more balance to the game. Some of the new weapon changes include new shotguns and new sniper rifles. To top some of the changes off players can even heal their squad mates and even carry their downed teammates. Fortnite players can also upgrade items using the materials they have and the developers have also included exploitable elements like gas tanks and barrels.

Fan favorites have returned as well, like solo, duo and squads, but trios have progressed from Arena to become a default option inside the main game which is great for teams that can’t seem to find a fourth player.

In closing, players have a lot more things to keep them busy in the game and should be excited for the future of the game and other updates that are sure to come.
