By Nicholas Barth ·
The floating Loot Lake island has finally begun moving from its original spot on the Season 6 Fortnite map.
Season 6 of Fortnite Battle Royale saw a great deal of changes happen to the map of Fortnite with the largest one being the creation of the Floating Island in the middle of Loot Lake thanks to Kevin the mysterious purple cube. Since the beginning of Season 6 for Fortnite, the Floating Island of Loot Lake has been in one location right in the center of Loot Lake. However, Saturday, September 29th has seen the first change in position for the Loot Lake Floating Island as the cube supported point of interest has begun moving towards the factories.
OpTic Gaming content creator and popular Fortnite community member Jack "CouRage" Dunlop was one of the first to alert the community to the official movement of the Loot Lake Floating Island.

The official moving of the point of interest looks to have begun the confrimation that the Cube and its Loot Lake Floating Island are due to change throughout Season 6 of Epic Games' popular battle royale game in Fortnite.
Speculation regarding that the Floating island had not finished its changes of the Season 6 map began when players began to notice a strange glitch on the in-game map showing that the point of interest had moved over to Salty Springs even though it was actually still in its original position. This speculation was further fueled by datamining that uncovered files stating that the cube is expected to grow further throughout Season 6 of Fortnite.
With the official moving of the Loot Lake Floating Island powered by the infamous purple cube having started, the Fortnite community's curious nature regarding what exactly Epic Games has planned for the Season 6 point of interest is now at an all time high.
