Fortnite Season 4 Trailer Reveals A Satisfying Comet Crash

3.9

Fortnite Season 4 is finally here and after all of this time, all of the conspiracy theories, datamining, and frantic speculation the comet has finally landed and the new season truly kicked off with a bang. Several areas on the map have been affected by the recent meteor shower, and Dusty Depot is no more, but with all of the new and all of the hype leading into the new season, the above trailer was made all the more satisfying.

We see the trailer open up with a report of alien activity and pure destruction, which definitely also shows why we received that weird Leviathan skin. It also lead us into seeing first hand the new gravity rocks that players can use to alter the playing field. "Discover gravity-defying Hop Rocks and find new ways to play. Jump in and witness the aftermath of the impact while you level up your Battle Pass and earn all new loot," boasted Epic Games in their latest update and that was only the start of what's new.

The latest patch for Season 4 is huge and brings tons of new changes to both Save the World and Battle Royale. Even the Mobile title received some loving, and players are definitely going to have their hands full for what's next.
