Fortnite Season 5 Leaks: Launch Pads To Return


Fortnite Chapter 2 Season is almost at an end, and Season 5 is right around the corner.

Season 5 is due to begin on December 3rd, bringing new changes to the world of Fortnite.

It also seems like a fan favorite item may be returning next season too.

When Does Season 4 End?

Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 4 was originally scheduled to end on November 30th.

This was then changed to December 3rd part way through the season.

Originally the season was due to end on a Sunday, something that has never happened before.

Now it is due to end on a Thursday, the typical day for a new Fortnite season.

XP Xtravaganza

We still have Week 3 and 4 of XP Xtravaganza to complete, earning that last bit of XP to get those Holo styles for the Battle Pass skins.

Players will fully complete the Battle Pass and unlock all of the styles at level 220.

The challenges have been leaked and you can check out our guides here:

This could mean that it is returning in Season 5, which will be great news to a lot of players.

The Launch Pad was a staple in the game from way back in Chapter 1 Season 1 all the way through to Chapter 2.

Over the course of Chapter 2 the Launch Pad has cycled in and out of the game.

But with the map being larger, mobility is more crucial than ever, but Epic Games has seemed to neglect mobility items throughout Chapter 2 in favour of vehicles.

The Launch Pad was specifically added back into the Battle Royale files, Creative has its own files where the Launch Pad has always been.

There is a chance though, that the Launch Pad may just be coming back for an LTM, although the Unvaulted LTM was recently in rotation and they weren't in that.

A new season of Fortnite always means big changes to the loot pool, and with them being vaulted this season, it does make sense that they would make a return.

Especially if we are getting the rumoured remixed map that combines Chapter 1 with Chapter 2.
