Anchor Appears At Fortnite Rift
By Zac Cameron ·
Not only are we losing landmarks, but it seems as though we're gaining some new ones as an anchor appears near the new rift in Fortnite Battle Royale.
We’ve seen quite a few changes to the map in Fortnite Battle Royale since the launch of the rocket, with a giant rift appearing in the sky and smaller rift’s appearing all over the map that seem to be destroying, or perhaps transporting, various landmarks across the map. The latest rift has appeared near a hill between Greasy Grove and Snobby Shores, though this time it doesn’t appear to be destroying anything, but rather bringing something new to the world.

We’ve previously speculated on what the rifts might mean for the theme of the upcoming Season 5 of Fortnite, and it seems as though that might prove to be true. With the addition of the Viking Anchor to the map and the removal and later rediscovery of the Durrr Burger sign, it looks as though the rifts in the sky will be doing some light renovations to the map for Season 5.
With some landmarks moving from the Fortnite map to the real world, and some new objects appearing around the map, it looks like the upcoming season might turn into a kind of mish-mash of themes, so look out for pirates and Vikings when you’re next hunting for that Victory Royale.
