Spider-Man, the Rock and many new features: Fortnite Chapter 3 began

This last Saturday Chapter 2 of Fortnite came to an end. After two years, the battle royale gave rise to an instance loaded with new content. The End event functioned as the conclusion to the showdown against the queen of the cube. As a result, the island was completely flipped over and the players were left adrift in the sea while waiting for the start of Chapter 3.

After a few hours of waiting, players were finally able to find everything this instance had to offer. Once they arrived on the “new” island, the Foundation received them there. Or actually The Rock, who revealed his true identity during the final event. He was responsible for guiding the users in Season 1.

“The new island is not only a battlefield, it is also ready to be explored,” they advanced. The new map presents different biomes that players will be able to explore to discover their peculiarities. In addition, the weather will impact the appearance of some phenomena, such as tornadoes and lightning. As a consequence of a long winter, in the western zone the icy climate will prevail, with spaces such as the Abandoned Sawmill and Changing Conduits.

The east is going to be dominated by the tropical climate, “with pleasant coastal areas, palm trees and a radiant sun. Although the Seven have outposts all over the island, this tropical area is where their headquarters, El Santuario, is located. This complex is on the beachfront, and from there you can see with total clarity the gigantic stone statue of the Foundation ”, they explained.

The hottest climates of all will be found in the south where the desert is located that “is not deserted with interesting places to visit”, with the Chonker Circuit and the Condo Canyon. They also clarified that the places that appear highlighted on the map are just some of those that will be found on the island and anticipated that once the snow melts, new secrets will be revealed that are now covered in the cold weather.

This chapter will also incorporate new maneuvering mechanics. Now players will have the ability to slide on the map, an option that attracted the attention of players already during the preview. This mechanic will allow them to move faster and evade the actions of enemies, without giving up the ability to shoot and build.

From December 11, in addition, players will also be able to equip Spider-Man’s web launchers. All users will be able to access this element, regardless of what skin they are using. However, it will not be the only participation that the Marvel superhero will have. Those who have the Battle Pass of Chapter 3 Season 1 will unlock the costumes of Spider-Man, Ronin the Wanderer, Harlowe the Outlaw, among others. Later you can unlock the leader of the Legendary “Seven”, The Foundation.

Another novelty is the store object. Once the players find it, they will be able to create their camp. In that space they will be able to heal or save up to three objects and then use them in other games. Additionally, squadmates can use it to build their own tents. Another point to keep in mind is that if the storm is approaching, you have to locate the tent in another place, although if you do not have time to do so, then the objects will be available in new stores. In the same way, to be able to recover the objects in other games, you just have to find a new tent or use the ones that are abandoned.

Among the objects that are added will also be the Healing Mist, to recover health and heal allies, and the Curasoda, which will not be able to be shared with other players, but once it is used it will recover health slowly until it reaches 100. Health recovery will be interrupted if the player takes damage during this process.

The Curasoda is another novelty of the game to recover health. Unlike Healing Mist, it cannot be shared with other players, but if you swallow it, you will recover health for a long time until it reaches 100. When you drink the Curasoda, try to go unnoticed, as the health recovery will be will interrupt when someone deals damage to you.

The Crown of Victory, on the other hand, will be the reward received by those who achieve a high ranking in a game. In the next game, the player will wear that crown, which will allow them to obtain extra experience points, but it will also mean that they attract more attention from the rest of the users. Winning in that case will involve obtaining an exclusive gesture. Depending on the game mode chosen, the criteria to obtain this benefit will change. For example, in solo games they will be awarded to the four best players, while in duos the players from the best two teams will receive it.

On the other hand, the presentation included a description of the weapons that will be found on the island: the commando assault rifle is designed to attack from a distance, the MK7 assault rifle has a sight to aim, the pump shotgun and ram is designed to fire a large number of projectiles, the automatic shotgun has great firepower, while the secondary pistol is a precise weapon that does great damage at medium or close range. The Stinger SMG affects enemies, but also structures, and the Hunter Marksman Rifle can fire up to three shots per magazine.

The new chapter arrived loaded with content for players to discover during the first days, but also to reaffirm that Fortnite is a title that never loses the ability to renew itself. As the first season progresses, new content will be revealed, while waiting for the snow to melt to make way for the new map that is now hidden.
