Fortnite Leak Reveals Big Changes Coming to Blitz Royale

A popular Fortnite leaker has revealed that Epic Games may be removing bots from Blitz Royale in the future, though the change seems to be part of a new option that would allow players to team up in larger groups. Fortnite is currently in the middle of Chapter 6 Season 3, which has brought iconic DC characters like Robin and Superman to the title.

Blitz Royale has become one of Fortnite‘s most popular modes, pulling in a massive number of players craving a fast and fun experience that can be completed in just five minutes. The new mode differs from the classic battle royale in several meaningful ways. For instance, lobbies are only comprised of 32 people instead of the usual 99. The map is also smaller, and it consists of several locations that have appeared previously in Fortnite. By default, there’s no building in Blitz Royale, which means players can’t turtle up, as the storm continually forces gamers into conflict with one another. Blitz Royale was originally designed for mobile, but it is available on all platforms and features full crossplay support.
