With the Fortnite Chapter 2, Season 6 update also came a new map. Unfortunately, it looks more like a small revision of the old map, rather than a full-fledged new map. Nevertheless, we want to look at the new points of interest.

Well, the time has finally come! The new Fortnite Season has been quite a wait. Many players have been looking forward to the new map – but now that it's here, many are disappointed. Let's first take a look at what has changed...

Fortnite Season 6 New Map: What Are the New POIs?

Three new points of interest have been added to the game with the Season 6 update:

  • Boney Burps
  • Colossal Crops
  • The Spire

Yeah, well, that's not really that big a change. Most of the changes have been limited to the middle of the map. Where the Zero Point was in Season 5, there is now the "Spire", and a huge forest has spread out from there. The colossal Colosseum has been replaced with Colossal Crops, and where the Salty Towers used to be, there is now Boney Burps.

Hunter's Haven has fallen away without replacement, leaving quite a gap in the south. Oh, and many of the stone metal houses have gone, replaced with wooden ones. At least it's a place where reforestation actually works. Very exemplary, Epic!

Of course, the new map looks pretty lame at first glance, but the map isn't the only thing that has changed, of course. So, hold your s**tstorm for a bit and play the new update for yourself.
