As the conclusion of the Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 8 live event is fast approaching, a trailer relating to the upcoming Chapter 3 battle pass was leaked across social media.

The trailer gave many players an extensive look into content that will likely be included in the battle pass for Fortnite Chapter 3.

Here’s everything we unpacked from the latest Fortnite leak including new characters, features and plenty more.

Spider-Man web swings his way to Fortnite

Epic Games is possibly continuing its collaboration with Marvel as the Friendly Neighbourhood Spider-Man appears to be joining the game. The Marvel character will come with three various outfit styles including the leaked Symbiote outfit.

Additionally, the leak suggests that the Daily Bugle building will likely appear on the Fortnite map as a new Point of Interest (POI). While it doesn’t suggest if there are any related challenges or quests attached to the POI, the building has made several appearances throughout Spider-Man’s comic book run as well as live-action and animated projects.

However, Spider-Man isn’t the only character arriving soon to Fortnite as the leak teases BuffLlama and The Foundation's arrival to the game.

Sliding mechanic, biomes and more environmental features

The leaked trailer also revealed new gameplay mechanics to be introduced in Fortnite Chapter 3. While it has been rumoured for a while that Epic Games were working on a sliding mechanic, the trailer showcases characters taking down enemies as they slid down a hill.

The leaked trailer also hints at new biomes coming soon with the Chapter 3 update. Having made their first appearance in Chapter 1, biomes will likely bring new map changes for Chapter 3 however, the extent and type of biomes we’ll likely see has yet to be confirmed.

Tornadoes and lightning were also hinted at in the leaked trailer. The specifics on how these mechanics will work has yet to be revealed but similar to Spider-Man’s arrival, there’s a chance of a possible POI being linked to these natural disasters.

Finally, a new type of loot cache is making its way to Fortnite in the form of loot tents. These tents will be pitched up anywhere on the island for players to loot available items. As to which types of loot will be offered has also yet to be revealed.

As of writing, the information provided in the leaked trailer has yet to be confirmed by the developer. Until the official trailer confirms the content featured in the leak, we will update this story as soon as more information becomes available.
