While the “Super Showdown” live event will likely bring the story of Chapter 6 Season 3 to a close, players will still have some time to experience the season before the introduction of Chapter 6 Season 4. According to recent rumors, the next season of Fortnite could bring back a popular game mechanic, which would allow players to use mud to their advantage. In the past, gamers were able to use mud on the map to hide from thermal weapons. Mud even allowed players to slide across the ground faster, giving them a slight mobility boost. Of course, players who found themselves covered in mud unintentionally were able to wash it away in any body of water.
According to leakers, Chapter 6 Season 4 will be followed by a new Fortnite mini-season, which could feature a major collaboration with the popular animated show The Simpsons. Rumors have suggested that a whole new map might make its debut as part of the mini-season, possibly bringing the town of Springfield to the island. With so much content to enjoy and even more just around the corner, many fans are feeling optimistic about the future of Fortnite.
