There has been plenty of mysterious buildup for Season 5 of Fortnite by Epic Games with the rocket launch, the crack in the sky, rifts destroying landmarks and bringing new ones from history onto the map. 

Now another major hint towards what fans can expect in Season 5 has been made, as the official Fortnite Twitter account has just released the first Fortnite Season 5 teaser image. In the official post Epic Games also teases that Season 5 is only three days away as the exciting experience that was Season 4 is set to end.

Featuring the infamous crack in the sky that was caused by the rocket launch and what could possibly be one of the new skins for the new Battle Pass, the first Fortnite Season 5 teaser image is surely to spark a great deal of debate and interest in the community.

With the first teaser image of Season 4 featuring the Carbide skin, which was one of the first two skins that became available when you purchased the last Battle Pass, it would not be surprising to see this cat like creature being one of the first Season 5 skins players will have the chance to get their hands on in three days. 

The appearance of historical items on the map by the way of being teleported by the rifts that can be found at various locations on the map and the introduction of the 1920s era Thompson sub machine gun in the form of the drum gun into the game has led to much speculation and many fan theories pointing to Fortnite having a history theme in the near future. 

This first teaser looks to possible be in line with the speculated history theme, as ancient Egypt has been considered one of the possible eras that could be featured and the cat like character seen in the image could be looked upon as a possible figure from Egyptian history.

The image also bears a heavy resemblance to the traditional Japanese Kitsune mask and could be hinting at an area of the map that will be focused on feudal Japan. Samurai skins anyone?

However, with no official confirmation from Epic Games regarding the true meaning of this teaser image, any speculation or rumors should be taken with a grain of salt.
