The mysterious cube that has been making its way around the map of Fortnite and leaving anti-gravity runes and areas has been the main point of discussion in the community for some time now. However, Wednesday, September 19th saw the item meets its apparent end at the location of Loot Lake in a live event that took place in Fortnite today.
Making its way into the water, the mysterious purple cube object dissolved into Loot Lake during the live event that took place. With no information being made public by Epic Games regarding what the ultimate purpose of the purple cube was in Fortnite, there was a great deal of speculation as to what or if anything would happen in the expected live event for the cube at Loot Lake.
You can find footage of the cube dissolving into Loot Lake during the Fortnite live event today thanks to OpTic Gaming content creator Jack "CouRage" Dunlop who watched the live event occur with fellow streamer Tyler "Ninja" Belvins.

The mysterious object melting into Loot Lake also caused the water of the area to turn into a purple substance that allows players to bounce on it with an anti-gravity effect in the same manner as the anti-gravity fields the item had been leaving across the map in its travels.
Mobile players had discovered that Loot Lake was the final destination of the cube and began a community wide discussion regarding what the item might do once it reached its alleged final destination. Now, the Fortnite community has gotten its answer regarding what Epic Games had planned all along.
However, the live event that took place in Fortnite today with the melting of the cube into Loot Lake has only raised more questions regarding how Season 5 of the popular battle royale game will end and how Season 6 will begin in the near future.
