On November 2, Epic Games revealed Fortnite’s new mini-season, ‘Fortnite Treasure Hunters.’ In this season, players battle using the abilities of One Piece characters while exploring a new island designed for up to 80 players.
‘Crossbones Isle,’ the stage for this adventure, features locations from One Piece, including ‘Arlong Park’ and ‘Windmill Village.’ Players can launch themselves into the air with cannons to travel around while hunting for hidden treasure across the island and loot inside ‘Captain X’s’ treasure chest.
Combat utilizes the abilities of individual One Piece characters. Players can use ‘Luffy’s’ ‘Gum-Gum Fruit’ and ‘Ace’s’ ‘Flame-Flame Fruit’ powers, as well as ‘Zoro’s’ ‘Three Sword Style’ and ‘Usopp’s’ slingshot. Challenging A$AP Rocky aboard his new battleship also gives players a chance to obtain the ‘Shock Rocket.’ This weapon is used to rain down rockets from the air.
New captains and crews will take over key locations on the island each week. Following the ‘Straw Hat Pirates’ and A$AP Rocky, American rapper Lil Uzi Vert, virtual singer transformed into a pirate captain ‘Cap’n Hatsune Miku,’ and Japanese virtual singer ‘Kasane Teto’ will join sequentially.
The new Battle Pass includes ‘Portgas D. Ace’ and ‘Nico Robin.’ Outfits for ‘Jonesy,’ ‘Cuddle Team Leader,’ and ‘Charlotte’ are also added in new anime styles.
In Battle Royale, ‘Captain’s Day’ events will introduce new weapons, Sprites, and more. The first event took place on November 1 at 11:00 PM KST. Subsequent content addition dates are November 7, 12, 14, and 21 based on Eastern Time (ET).
During the season, ‘Mastery Mondays’ and ‘Treasure Hours Sundays’ will also run. Both events offer perks such as providing a Captain’s weapon at the start of a match and increased drop rates.
