Marvel's season in Fortnite has come to an end in a big way. With a beautifully executed live event, the Nexus War arc came to an end, putting players face to face with Galactus, the Devourer of Worlds. Epic Games again managed to deliver a quality attraction, including turning Fortnite into an air battle game for a few minutes of the event, while players had to control the battle bus to defeat the threat. Now, a new season brings several new features and continues the game's plot, which gains more and more elements.
The news of the Zero Point season
In the opening trailer, Jonesy appears as a key player in the new arc, given the mission to stop people from escaping the loop through ground zero. Therefore, the character recruits the best hunters from different realities and universes, sending them to the island.
This is how the main battle pass skin comes into play. In yet another partnership with Star Wars, Epic Games offers the Mandalorian to players who purchase the new pass. The famous and skilled bounty hunter is one of Jonesy's recruits, and is now one of the newcomers in the battle royale. To the delight of fans, Mando is the first reward of the pass. In addition, it is clear that the bounty hunter's companion could not fail to be present, that is, The Child, or drink Yoda as it is popularly known, is also present in the new Fortnite bow as a back accessory.

Hunt or be hunted
Bounty contracts are another new addition to the season, adding a different mechanic to battle royale matches. By talking to characters around the map, the player can accept a bounty hunter contract, thus having to hunt an opponent in a specific area. However, of course you can also be hunted, so at times you will need to pay extra attention not to return to the lobby!
There are also other objectives like killing enemies with a pickaxe. With each mission you complete, you receive gold bars that can be exchanged for weapons, information, upgrades and more.
Now, players can also modify weapons, making combinations and creating special attacks that add variety to gameplay, with new elements available. For example, with the right mod players can track enemies when using the shotgun.
Zero Point also brings new locations to the map, such as the Stealth Fortress and the Colossal Coliseum. The collision of different realities even brought back some already known areas, such as Torres Tortas buildings that mix with Fontes Salgadas, creating the Torres Salgadas location.
The new season of Fortnite is now available.
