Sunday, September 16th saw Epic Games update the in-game news tab for its popular battle royale game of Fortnite and officially announce that a new Port-a-Fortress item would be "coming soon" to its title. The official description of the Fortnite Port-a-Fortress item states players will be able to "toss down the Port-a-Fortress and take defense to new heights."
With the new item for the popular battle royale title being a descendant of the Port-a-Fort item that allows for players to instantly create massive structures, the reception to the new item was not of a very positive nature on social media. This negative reception was highlighted by popular Team SoloMid Fortnite streamer dakotaz.
TSM dakotaz took to Twitter to give his thoughts on the new Port-a-Fortress item that appears to allow players to spawn a massive structure larger than the one of the Port-a-Fort in an instant. The TSM member of dakotaz had a simple phrase to let the community know his thoughts on the addition.

However, this was not all dakotaz had to say regarding the implementation of new items in updates by Epic Games for Fortnite with a following tweet that featured a "leaked" concept of a new Port-a-Toilet that would allow players to never miss a future update from the developer of Fortnite.

It is expected that Epic Games will add the new Port-a-Fortress item to the world of Fortnite in the next major content update that will be coming this week. It remains to be seen how the community will respond to the addition of the brand new item once it has begun to be used in actual gameplay.
Unfortunately for the Port-a-Fortress, it looks as though community members like TSM dakotaz aren't particularly looking forward to seeing the new piece of content in action anytime soon.
