What is new in Fortnite season 6?
The cube has been around the map for several weeks and it has had a big influence over the season 6 changes.
One addition to the game is a new consumable item called Shadow Stones which can be found near the many runes that were left behind by the cube.
When a player consumes one they will receive the Shadow Form ability that makes them invisible to enemies.
During this time you wont be able to use weapons and leave a shadow trail when moving, but you can move slightly faster and get fall immunity while it is in effect.
Another new addition is the introduction of pets as a new cosmetic item.
In the description Epic Games says Always have a friend watching your back when you drop in. Pets are now available in-game!
There havent been too many details revealed about the new items but it looks like players will be able to carry them around on their back.
Epic Games has added various new locations to the map, although all of the named areas are still there but with some slight changes in some of them.
Loot Lake now has a floating island at the centre of it that has been caused by the cube.
There is also a haunted castle near Haunted Hills as well as corn fields and the new corrupted areas where players can find shadow stones.
