Epic Games’ mega-popular shooter Fortnite is just about to enter its third season of its fourth chapter and after mysterious fractures began appearing across the latest island, we finally know what’s been lurking below. And it looks like there’ll be dinosaurs.
Fortnite has only grown more epic with each season, and its clear the franchise isn’t stopping anytime soon. With a constant updated roster of outfits from various franchises, and the recent addition of the Unreal Editor allowing players to build their very own islands, few games are as visually eclectic as Fortnite. During the last season, mysterious fault lines appeared on the island, some of which were the the focus of various quests during the season. And now, at today’s Summer Game Fest, Epic Games has shown off some wild new areas of the island with a new cinematic trailer.
