Season 5 for Fortnite has brought many changes to the popular battle royale title. From a completely new desert area replacing Moisty Mire to a new vehicle and points of interest across the map. Anohtre major change that Epic Games decided to implement for Season 5 of Fortnite was a complete revamp of the Victory Royale screen and animation.

Offering a cleaner Victory Royale logo and a slow motion animation, the community has been very positive of their reception of the new screen that is shown when they achieve a victory. 

One of the biggest members of the Fortnite community in Tyler "Ninja" Belvins is also a fan of the new Victory Royale screen for Season 5. 

During a recent stream of his, Ninja explained to Team EnVy Fortnite player King Richard how two top level employees at Epic Games had hinted at the changing of the Victory Royale screen to him before it was added into Fortnite.

"Bro, how sick is that slow-mo man? The number one victory royale looks so much cleaner. You know what's amazing man? The last time I sat down with two of the top guys at Epic and had a conversation with them about ways to improve the game," said Ninja. "One thing I said is 'The win screen is amazing, its obviously clean, but it could be so much better', and they were like 'Oh we know, and we have stuff coming'. They always know what they need to improve." 

With Ninja being the most popular and influential players in the world of Fortnite, it is not surprising to see Epic Games wanting to get his thoughts and on what could be improved for the battle royale title.

However, Epic Games was already hard at work with the rework of the Victory Royale screen before their meeting with Ninja, and the introduction of Season 5 showed Ninja and the rest of the world what the developer had been planning for its revamp of the screen that every player sets out to get at the beginning of every Fortnite match.
