'Fortnite' "Second Chances" Respawn Van Leaked

4
Prior to Season 8's arrival in Fortnite, Epic Games expressed interest in possibly adding a respawn mechanic to their battle royale title. This is a feature that isn't new to battle royale, though would be for Fortnite, and is one that has grown even more popular thanks to Apex Legends' success.


The video above shows off some of the game's sound files that hints at a new respawn feature coming soon under SC_Machine. Like the banners that Apex Legends bring to beacons, the player's card that drops after they are eliminated can be picked up and brought to a "Respawn Van" for a second chance at life.


When asked if a respawning feature would ever make its way into Fortnite's battle royale mode, Epic Games responded over on Reddit saying "We’ve been considering this mechanic for a while and have been exploring it. Want to make sure we give it the time it needs and fully understand its impact on the game as a whole. Look for further updates during Season 8."

Looks like someone is taking apex legends ideas just like how they did with the ping item system they are clearing running out of ideas if they are taking from another game lmao jokes

Xbox Eh I don't like the idea of this.


Couldn't agree more. The whole point of the game is to not lose health because once you did, you die. If I wanted to be revived I'd play Apex or COD, Fortnite need to stop trying to copy ideas and come up with there own. Because they are just making the game worse and worse.

They are just trying to revive the game, and take what Apex created.
