The current season in Fortnite has been nothing short of a huge hit, with almost all of Earth’s mightiest heroes fighting it out on the map. Epic Games has been pretty regular with updating the game, usually once every two weeks or so.

Almost two weeks have passed since the last major update, and data miners have already unearthed clues to an upcoming update. Note that Epic themselves have not released an official statement regarding this one.

Without further ado, here is everything you can expect to see in the game in the upcoming weeks.

Upcoming months in Fortnite: What to expect?

Of course, the first upcoming update is Fortnitemares, a yearly event that takes place around Halloween. This is a pretty obvious item on the list since it isn’t particularly new. So, what happens is players fight hordes of undead zombie-like creatures called ‘husks’. These husks appear on various locations throughout the map and killing them during BR gameplay is the primary objective.

Since last year, Fortnitemares has included a boss fight that required players to team up for. Looks like that might be the case this year as well.

Next up on the list is something that the community has been expecting for a while now- the return of Midas. Players already know of this since Epic had mentioned his return as part of the Last Laugh Bundle. However, Midas will look different from how players remember him. Most likely, he will return as Midas Rex.

The Last Laugh Bundle will also introduce Gotham’s Clown Prince of Crime in the game, along with Poison Ivy. With Harley Quinn already in the game, looks like they are looking for nothing but trouble.

Along with this, there is, of course, the theory about a new map making its way to the game. Many players in the community have speculated that this map might be the Chapter 1 map making its return. And with the impending return of Midas, this theory has only gained more traction. However, it is also possible that the game might introduce a new map altogether following the Galactus event.

Looks like the upcoming months are going to be exciting for Fortnite, not to mention eventful. A lineup of upcoming updates  like this will surely keep the community happy, and it is no wonder this game has an ever-expanding player base.
