With the recent version 15.21, Epic Games pays tribute to the famous Predator series. Within a match, fans can battle the signature alien as a boss battle to unlock its skin.

When the dimensional rifts first appeared around the map, their purpose seemed to be to take things away from the island. A rift over Tomato Town sucked in everyone’s favourite tomato mascot, and Greasy Grove’s Durr Burger ornament disappeared in a similar fashion. Strangely, the Durr Burger actually showed up in the real world, in what appears to be a genius PR stunt by Epic Games suggesting the rifts link the game world with our own....

It’s worth mentioning that Fortnite players have noticed two important aspects of this phenomenon, namely that these strikes are focused on the desert portion of the map and leave a scorched marking of where it strikes. Before diving into what these lightning strikes could mean, check it out in action below: One of the more prominent theories, based on a similar lightning pattern in Save the World mode, is that this is a promotion for Save the World going free-to-play by the end of the season....

This won’t come as a shock to those who’ve been paying attention, as the existence of the floating island and its new location was leaked last week.

As Epic puts it, “two past locations return at once!...

As seen in the tweets below from the official Twitter account for Fortnite, Epic Games has announced that it is currently investigating the reasons behind why Sniper Shootout is being affected by the glitch, and has promised to provide an update as soon as it receives “more information” on the matter.

As seen in the screenshot below, a recent datamine of Fortnite’s game files has uncovered that Season 5 Week 7’s challenges will keep bringing what appears to be an emphasis on SMG and explosives gameplay in the title. Of course, with Epic having yet to officially announce what free tasks and Battle Pass challenges will be included in Update 5.3, there’s always the possibility that the final list might change before going live....

Epic Games and Microsoft have combined to create the Fortnite Xbox Cup, which will be hosted this weekend. Unlike the World Cup, this event will be strictly Solos grouping.

The Forza Motorsport franchise has struggled with the emergence of Forza Horizon, which has become a premier franchise for Xbox in recent years. Despite this, both series have benefited from being on Xbox Game Pass, allowing players to try the games before they buy them. Xbox Game Pass is especially important for Forza games, as they are regularly delisted from sale prior to the release of sequels. The last game in the Forza Motorsport franchise, Forza Motorsport 7, was delisted in 2021, leaving two years without an active game being supported....

If you cut out fitness trackers and look at smartwatches specifically, when it comes to manufacturers, the three biggest players are Apple, Samsung and Fossil; so when the company launched a new generation of its own-brand smartwatches, we were more than curious to find out how it might be taking the fight to its most prominent competition. One of the biggest aspects that’s held Fossil’s smartwatches – and all Wear OS smartwatches back, for that matter – is that the manufacturers don’t have all that much control over the software or internal hardware at play....

Angler Danny Smith caught a four-and-half-foot, 39.5-pound alligator gar specimen last month while fishing one night on the Neosho River, the Kansas Department of Wildlife & Parks (KDWP) said in a statement Tuesday. The department said alligators are not native to Kansas and have never been officially documented in the state. “When a lure drops below the water’s surface, it’s not always known what might rise to meet it. On a warm night late last month, one angler fishing the Neosho River east of Parsons caught something he probably never expected to see,” KDWP said in the statement....

Party Royale is Fortnite’s violence-free, party-only mode, removing the biggest element of the game: weapons. The main idea is for players to mess around and have fun without lethal competition and sometimes, real musical artists will perform in-game. It launched on May 8th with a party featuring the music of Steve Aoki and Deadmau5, and since, Fortnite has also seen other big names in EDM on its main stage such as Marshmello and Diplo....

In a statement made on Twitter, Epic CEO Tim Sweeney confirmed iOS Fortnite players’ fears. He says that Fortnite will remain off of the iOS App Store until Epic can offer in-app payments “in fair competition with Apple in-app payment.” It can be assumed that he doesn’t see the court’s decision today as enough to create “fair competition.” That means that Sweeney isn’t planning on bringing Fortnite back to iOS devices anytime soon....
