Fortnite: Epic Games brings explosive changes with the launch of Season 2 Chapter 2. A popular item from the past returns in the new season.
Cary / USA - Fortnite will soon be entering the next round with Chapter 2 Season 2 . The Battle Royale shooter starts a new season on February 20, 2020. For a few days, developer Epic Games has been showing mysterious clues on Twitter that fans are unsuccessfully trying to decipher. These suggest, among other things, that a popular item from the past could soon celebrate its return.
Fortnite Season 2: Popular item from Season 1 returns
With Season 2, Fortnite also gets a number of new items. Even if no specific information has been released by Epic Games about new weapons and equipment, the development team on the official Fortnite Twitter account draws attention to a well-known item. An old fan favorite could soon celebrate an explosive revival.
Fortnite fans already know the item from season 1. There you could already find dynamite as a rare item in chests, on the floor, in storage boxes or llamas. Dynamite came in three stacks and with up to 70 damage to opponents, the dynamite was a very popular, explosive throwing object. Due to the extensive damage to buildings, entire houses and skyfort could easily be brought down. The dynamite gilded on the Twitter picture could thus celebrate its comeback at Fortnite in Chapter 2 Season 2.

In addition to the cryptic social media announcements, Fortnite has also had an impact on the real world in recent days. All over the world, posters suddenly appeared, under which there was always a mysterious telephone number. Fans have also found such a poster in Russia. If you call the number given (+7 499 609-23-22), you will see the following message:
“ Explosive specialist, do not attack! The purpose of the mission has changed. Return to the base. ”
The True on the other end asks explosion specialists not to attack. It is obvious that the explosion specialist could refer to people who use dynamite in Fortnite. The caller claims that the reason for the mission has changed and that the specialists should return to the base - an indication that players will soon be able to use the popular explosives again. But that's not the only thing Fortnite's Twitter account has published in the past few days.
New items point to Gold Rush in Season 2 of Fortnite
Fortnite's Twitte r account has provided additional information for Season 2 Chapter 2 , which was not mentioned in the unofficial patch notes for Season 2. A large rocket can be seen under a Twitter post. The black and gold tone of the poster ties in with the other previously published posters.

Epic Games has not yet provided any further information on the golden rocket in Fortnite, and the way Season 2 will be launched on February 20 will only show how the rocket will be implemented in the Battle Royale shooter. Another item has also appeared on Fortnite's Twitter channel: a gas canister with a gold look.

Some players may already know this item. The gas can is already part of Fortnite and can be ignited by a pick or a blow with a pickaxe. However, no damage is caused and it is not an explosive item. The canisters are often used, especially on the snow-covered mountains. Fans will also have to wait and see whether this will change with Season 2 and whether there may be lethal canisters in the future. The developer, based in Cary, USA, has not yet commented on this.
All items indicate destruction
Fortnite Season 2 Chapter 2 is likely to have one motto in the foreground: Destruction. The new posters all contain explosive objects. According to theories on Reddit, the explosives may not be uncommon. Speculations on the Internet are already saying that it will be necessary, for example, to destroy safes in which treasures are stored. This would, according to a theory on Reddit, allow players to collect gold.
What the gold is necessary for and how exactly it can ultimately be earned in the game has so far been left in the stars. However, the explosive items could be of great help. Bombs, dynamite or rockets could also be used to open the secret bunker between Retail Row and Dirty Docks, for example. The Reddit user u / Koooooomar has already created his own map.

Even before the first official trailer, the rumor mill boiled up on Reddit. There was a fan theory about the appearance of King Midas, about which ingame.de * recently reported. The missing king, borrowed from Greek mythology, could be another clue to the new golden season in Fortnite.
Unknown person shows her face at Fortnite: is she coming in Season 2?
A new, unknown person could also appear in Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 2 . In the past few days, for example, Epic Games has published pictures of a previously unknown face with a mask on all social media channels. The image series, which had been resolved for several hours, started as a blurry head, which has become increasingly sharp in the course of the posts. The final version can be seen on Fortnite's Instagram account.
