Players who like to explore the map in every other round will be happy to know that the developers have added a new area in the map to explore as well. You’ll be seeing a volcanic eruption on the edge of the map with a volcano pouring down the lava. Two new locations Sunny Steps and Lazy Lagoons will be added too.

Party Assist:

• Before start of a match, party leader can select a daily or weekly challenge as Party Assist to focus on. Every team member will be going for it.
• Challenge progress will be accumulative as each player’s count towards the challenge will be added to the total. In the end whole team will be fighting for a common goal (except for winning the match of course.)
• An important thing to keep in mind is that this Party Assist challenge won’t be completed with the help of fill-up squad. You can select the fill-up squad option to complete the team before any match if your party does not have the required numbers. But as said earlier their progress won’t count towards the challenge’s progress.

Fortnite Season 8 Patch is also bringing back 50v50 Limited time mode. This mode will allow teams to divide into two big squads. Teams will be getting off from two separate buses. And both squads of a team will work together to defeat common enemy team. To add up to the pile, game will also be receiving giant cannon which could blow away structures. Its giant cannon balls will deal heavy damage to the enemies.

Pirate Cannon:

• You’ll be able to take aim with cannon and blow away enemies. Cannon could also be adjusted at a fixed position.
• Cannon could shoot enemy players from a far while causing destruction to objects in the way. It could destroy structures and plow objects easily.
• With direct hit, cannon’s fire will finish off a player and those standing in a small radius of blast will be damaged heavily.
• Could be found anywhere in the area.

50v50 Limited time mode is not the only mode players will be having in the upcoming patch. As, the famous LTM Close Encounters will be coming to Fortnite Season 8 Patch. Players will be fighting the combat with shotguns and jetpacks only. As the name suggest, be ready for close combats as you’ll be facing a lot of them.
