The journey has come so far as we’ve reached Chapter 2 Season 8<\/a> of Fortnite: Battle Royale. Season 7 was themed around an alien invasion and the trend is somewhat continuing with a strange Cube takeover currently happening on the Fortnite island.<\/p>\n

Of course, with any new season comes a new battle pass<\/a> filled with in-game rewards for players to level up and unlock. As per usual, the new season also brings new weapons to the Fortnite island, which helps to constantly keep the competition fresh and exciting.<\/p>\n

Lucky for Fortnite gamers, this season will offer even more themed content than usual, as it falls during everyone’s favourite month of the year, Spooktober. Epic Games are fully embracing the spook once again as Fortnitemares 2021 is set for another Halloween event, here’s everything you need to know.<\/p>\n
