Epic Games has revealed exciting details for the upcoming Fortnite Chapter 6 update, which will officially launch on December 1, 2024. The biggest headline piece to the update is the addition of Godzilla, who will wreak havoc on a new Japan-themed map. This adds a whole new level of dynamic to the game, giving players the chance to interact with one of the pop culture’s most iconic monsters. The update also introduces several smaller Japan-inspired enemies, in addition to Godzilla, providing more diversity in the game, as well as greater challenge.
Fortnite Chapter 6 Update Brings Godzilla, Baymax, New Battle Pass Changes
Along with the updated monsters, players will also see new weapons, including samurai swords, uploaded in the update, which fits the Japanese theme of the update. This Blend of action and culture sets forth unique experiences, as Fortnite continues its trend of dynamic collaborations and in-game events. Baymax from Big Hero 6 is another new addition to the roster of characters players can choose from.
Furthermore, Epic Games has introduced updates to the Fortnite Battle Pass system. For the first time, the price of the standard Battle Pass will be increasing from 950 V-Bucks to 1,000 V-Bucks. The price of V-Bucks in the real world, however, will stay consistent, and players will still be able to earn V-Bucks as they advance through Battle Pass levels. For one thing, the price tag of the 25 Battle Pass Reward Bundle is being lowered, from 1,850 V-Bucks to 1,800 V-Bucks, so at least there will be a minor discount for players looking to boost their progress.
These updates come right before the highly-anticipated launch of Fortnite OG: Chapter 1 – Season 1 on December 6, 2024. This Chapter in particular looks like it’ll go down as one of the most exciting updates as Epic Games is constantly improving the game with features and collaborations. With new content, tweaks to gameplay, and new events in-game, fans will have plenty to keep them occupied.
