Chapter 4 Season 1 had a somewhat medieval theme to it, but the next season could be doing a complete 180 with a more futuristic setting.
With Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 1, Epic Games brought new life to the battle royale by making some massive changes to the map, delivering new POIs with a medieval tone in mind.

Small quaint villages and big castles all became part of the Fortnite landscape. Now, you might want to get ready to jump a few centuries into the future if rumors are to be believed.
Why? Because according to reliable sources, it seems Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 2 might feature some futuristic vibes to it, particularly something similar to a vibrant neon-looking Tokyo.
A Neo-Tokyo Could Come To Fortnite
According to both Shiina and HYPEX, two of the most reliable leakers in the Fortnite community, Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 2 will feature a "futuristic Japanese" theme, referencing Neo-Tokyo in their posts.

With so many anime skins and other Japanese-inspired cosmetics already in the game, the Neo-Tokyo theme season makes complete sense.
What Is Neo-Tokyo
One of the questions you might have is: what exactly is Neo-Tokyo? Obviously, it's a reference to a futuristic version of the massive metropolis, although which version we'd see remains to be seen.
Neo-Tokyo is the name the capital of Japan took in the famous anime cult-classic Akira. In it, a nuclear detonation in 1982 wiped out the original city, kick-starting World War III, and forcing the government to rebuild on an artificial island near the place where the first Tokyo used to be located.

It's more likely that Neo-Tokyo is simply a vibe: Big, bright neon signs everywhere and Japanese kanji serving as ornaments to a gorgeous cyberpunk setting.
