A new leak for Fortnite teases a potentially upcoming point of interest (POI) in the game's map that is rumored to be coming in the Chapter 6 update.

New Fortnite Leak

Epic Games also launched an update that referenced one of the game's earliest seasons with the recent Chapter 2 Remix. This brought back classic POI locations as well as a variety of weapons to the battle royale. The latest leak suggests that a similar update is coming with Chapter 6.

The upcoming patch is expected to officially come out very soon as other leaks suggest a series of new content coming to the game sometime soon. Various claims also hinted at a new 5v5 mode that may have been inspired by Overwatch, according to Game Rant.

There are also some rumors that suggest an open-world game as well as an "OG" mode that could be available in the future. Fortnite's various crossovers could also provide players with some new content as there are rumors of a collaboration with Nintendo's Super Mario franchise.

It is expected that Chapter 6 of Fortnite will arrive on Dec. 1, 2024, which coincides with the end of Chapter 2 Remix. The recent rumors also suggest new mechanics for both combat and movement could come with the upcoming update.

New Chapter 6 POI

The map for Chapter 6 was also hinted at by early leaks and "floating islands" could result in a drastic overhaul of the landscape within Fortnite. The current season had a major focus on crossovers with popular real-world rap artists, such as Eminem, Snoop Dogg, and Ice Spice, Game Rant said.

Chapter 2 Remix also added an in-game memorial to Juice WRLD that includes a free in-game skin and a virtual performance. A new chapter brings a lot of hype for the potential of a variety of new content that players can get in Fortnite.

Another detail about the recent leaks for the game suggests that the potential industrial POI could be Japanese-themed. This is because Chapter 6 is rumored to be focusing on Samurai and Japanese mythology.

If the rumors are true, they would be similar to what happened in Chapter 4 Season 2 MEGA. The Mega City POI was a large metropolitan city that was filled with lights and vertical levels. It also had vaults that you could break into, according to Sportskeeda.
