Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 3 was primed to arrive at the end of May, but delay after delay has seen the current season extended heavily into June.
There is extremely little information currently available on the upcoming season, but that could be down to the developers hard at work
Let's take a look at what we know so far, along with some of the rumours floating around about the potential theme of Chapter 2 Season 3!
Underwater Theme
Originally posted by FortTory, the post provided a sneak peek at what the theme is expected to be next season.
AS FAR AS THE EYE CAN SEE: We can see water... everywhere!
Purely from looking at the picture, you can sense that the tides are very much on the rise for Chapter 2 Season 3.

Now the Season has released, we can confirm that the new Season is indeed aquatic-themed.
New Map!
The new map features fully underwater sections, again, linking in with the aquatic theme!
SHARKS AND CARS - This season, we'll see the addition of two new vehicle types!
Areas in the North West and South West have been completely submerged, as well as smaller sections around Frenzy Farm and Steamy Stacks.

It will be interesting to see how players develop their playstyle and rotations based around these changes!
Aquaman Skin!
It's official, Aquaman is now in Fortnite!
TAKE TO THE SEAS - Unlock the Aquaman skin and dominate the seas!
To unlock this skin, you'll need to complete five Aquaman challenges!
This is an awesome addition to Fortnite and continues the Superhero theme (similar to Deadpool) from last Season.
Shark Vehicle
Epic has added a brand new Shark Vehicle!
DOMINATE THE WAVES - Move around the map with insane speed with the new shark vehicle!
This allows you to water ski behind the shark and traverses through the water sections of the map with extreme speed!

We can't wait to get our hands on this new way of travelling.
Other Rumours
We don't know what to make of this one, but we saw an interesting tweet suggesting a different theme for the upcoming season.
DC – A lot of new DC Comics skins it seems!
If Chapter 2 Season 2 was Shadow vs Agency, there's a small chance that Chapter 2 Season 3 could be Aquaman vs Black Manta.

That said, the flooded map theme seems slightly more viable at this point.
Any other hints?
We could dispute the theme of the next Fortnite season all day long with the abundance of rumours and theories doing the rounds.
BANANAS - Could we see yet another Banana skin?
But for now, we're holding our breath in the hope that some information will be confirmed by Epic.
With the possibility of a season-ending event in the works, the next theme is still anyone's guess, but we will be back with an update when we receive new information!
