The wait is finally over! Fortnite Season 6 is here, and it seems like the entire game has changed. We take a look at the changes, and everything about the map, weapons, Battle Pass, animals, and more for you.

A new season in Fortnite is out, and that means completely new features in the game – the season is called Fortnite Primal for a reason. After Jonesy and the Foundation (One of the Seven) tried to contain Zero Point, all sorts of worlds seem to have merged together. All advanced technology has disappeared, and with a new landscape, animals have also settled on the map.

Is your jaw ready to drop? Then you'd better hold onto something, because this was just the beginning.

Fortnite Chapter 2, Season 6: Battle Pass

Let's start with the most important thing: The new Battle Pass.

All skins have additional style options that you can unlock while leveling up in Battle Pass. In addition, Neymar JR. is teased as a secret Battle Pass skin.

Of course, and as always, there are more Cosmetics included in the Battle Pass. You can check them out in the following video:

Fortnite Chapter 2, Season 6: Map

Oh boy, finally a new Map! Okay, maybe not completely new, but things have definitely changed! The desert in the middle of the map has been replaced by a huge forest. Everything looks a little... well how to say it... old? Where there were stone and metal houses, there are now wooden huts and, of course, there are new POIs:

  • Boney Burbs
  • Colossal Crops
  • The Spire

No worries! You won't have to unlock the greyed out map first, as we've already done that for you. You're welcome.

Fortnite Chapter 2, Season 6: New Weapons

The biggest changes in Fortnite Season 6 come in the form of weaponry. Not only can you just pick up any weapons, but now you can craft them yourself! Use animal and tech parts that have been spared from the Pulse, and make yourself some destructive primeval weapons, the like the Primeval Rifle, as well as highly accurate, familiar weapons like the Revolver. You can also craft flame and mechanic bows! Is this even Fortnite anymore?

Fortnite Chapter 2, Season 6: Animals in Fortnite!

Okay okay, now it's getting completely wild! There are animals in Fortnite! Oh, and you can tame them too! What the f**k? From easy prey like chickens, to dangerous and hungry wolves, there are many new creatures. Tame them, hunt them, collect materials from them, make weapons from those same materials. This is a huge change! Beware, though, Wolves will not always be the most dangerous animals on the map. Epic has already announced that the most dangerous predators are yet to hatch...

Fortnite Chapter 2, Season 6: Rare Bunker Chests

There are also some new rare chests in Fortnite – the Bunker Chests. Inside them are powerful weapons, such as the rocket launcher. Over the course of the season there will be more improvements to the game, including weapons and upgrades. This includes the new off-road tires that will allow us to accelerate off the roads.
