Second Fortnite Season 5 Teaser Image Released Featuring a Viking Axe

Season 5 of Fortnite is set to begin two days from now on Thursday, July 12th, and Epic Games has begun to tease the theme of the next season in the same manner it did with the beginning of Season 4 with the release of teaser images. 

The teaser image was revealed on Monday, July 9th by Epic Games and it featured what has been speculated on being a Japanese Kitsune mask with the announcement of the message of "Worlds Collide". The Kitsune mask points to a possibility of feudal Japan being one of the time periods that will leak through the rifts and crack in the sky that have appeared on the map of Fortnite after the infamous rocket launch. 

However, the message of Worlds Collide point to many other worlds or time periods being major parts of the theme, and the second teaser image released on Tuesday, July 10th looks to support this though, as it shows off what could be a Viking axe harvesting tool. 

With one of the rifts teleporting an ancient anchor onto the map recently, many members of the community began to speculate that an ancient time period with seafaring people, such as the Vikings, would be one of the worlds that will collide in Season 5 of Fortnite. Now, today's Fortnite Season 5 teaser image looks to point to a major possibility that a culture who utilized these styles of axes for combat could be a major part of the Worlds Collide theme. 

One more day separates the avid playerbase of Epic Games' popular battle royale game and Season 5 of Fortnite, which means that Epic Games will highly likely release one final teaser image on Wednesday, July 11th before the grand reveal of what Season 5 has been building up to on Thursday, July 12th is made.
