Fortnite leak hints at big changes: Weapon mastery, ranked shops, and more in the pipeline
Image via Epic Games Epic Games could be gearing up for another major shake-up in Fortnite. According to fresh leaks shared by prominent Fortnite insiders @HYPEX and @Loolo_WRLD, nearly a dozen new features are reportedly under consideration. While Epic has not officially confirmed these developments, the leak hints at a more competitive, personalized, and rewarding experience in future updates. The potential features range from gameplay-centric additions to enhanced social tools, suggesting that the developers are looking to fine-tune multiple facets of the Fortnite ecosystem. What's reportedly in the works? Here's a breakdown of the features being considered: Weapon Mastery quests and Rewards Timers until Ranked reset More detailed Career profile Ranked Exclusive Item Shop Practice modes for Competitive Players Global leaderboards Rank-based rewards More limited time modes Friend Leaderboards Social Matchmaking (playing with ppl who have similar interests/play style) Some of these additions, like the Weapon Mastery system and rank-based cosmetics - could bring a grind-based element to the game, similar to what players have seen in other titles like Call of Duty. Others, such as Practice Modes and Social Matchmaking, are designed to make Fortnite more accessible and enjoyable for both new and veteran players. Mixed reactions surface as fans await official word The leak, reposted by popular Fortnite leaker HYPEX, has sparked widespread discussion among fans. Some players applauded the new direction, with one user writing, 'They need to add all of these,' while others expressed concern about overcomplicating the game. 'Sometimes it's best to keep things simple and not break the game with all the extras,' a commenter wrote. Calls for the return of classic LTMs like 50v50 and requests for second chances to complete old Battle Passes also flooded the replies, indicating players want a balance between innovation and nostalgia. As of now, Epic Games has not confirmed any of the leaked features or provided a rollout timeline. The ideas are reportedly still in the brainstorming or testing phase, which means it could take several weeks - or even entire seasons, before anything materializes in-game. However, longtime players will remember that similar leaks about new Crew features or cosmetic changes were initially dismissed, only to be rolled out in later updates. Based on that precedent, there's a fair chance that some, if not all, of these suggestions could debut by the end of Chapter 6 or become headline features in Chapter 7. What remains clear is that Epic is paying close attention to player feedback and evolving expectations. Whether it's through enhanced ranked modes, grindable cosmetics, or casual-friendly matchmaking, these features could reshape how players engage with Fortnite across skill levels.

Here's The Exact Time The ‘Fortnite' Death Star Sabotage Live-Event Goes Live And Season 3 Begins
Fortnite The current season of Fortnite is about to end, so make sure you've wrapped up all your challenges and finished every tier of the Chapter 6, Season 2 Battle Pass. Only hours remain before a new season drops and the current Star Wars-themed season ends and a new Superman season begins. This was a short, truncated season of content for Fortnite players. The new season is Superman / DC Comics-themed thanks to the upcoming release of James Gunn's new Superman movie starring James Corenswet. The Battle Pass skins are mostly based on DC characters including the new Superman model based on Corenswet from the film. Read on to learn everything you need to know about the new Superhero Academy Chapter 6, Season 3. The current season isn't going out quietly. The Star Wars Galactic Battle wraps up with a major live-event called Death Star Sabotage. Here's when it kicks off on Saturday, June 7th: Players should get queued up early. You can login two hours ahead of the event to hopefully secure your spot (barring any technical problems or overwhelmed servers) and you can do that on mobile now that Fortnite is back in the Google Play and App Stores. There's no exact timing or details on the event, but expect it to last 15 to 20 minutes.
