Fortnite Revolver - Fortnitemares Teaser Has Players Hopeful for Return

There have been a good number of weapons and other items that have been introduced into Fortnite Battle Royale to then be removed from the title and vaulted by Epic Games at a later date for various reasons. One of these vaulted weapons is the Fortnite Revolver that was vaulted back on August 31st in a developer update video from Epic Games for Fortnite Battle Royale. However, the latest teaser image for the upcoming Fortnitemares 2018 Halloween event has some members of the community hopeful that the Revolver will be making a return to the title. 

The Fortnitemares 2018 teaser image above was posted to the official Fortnite Twitter account on Monday, October 22nd, and it features what is speculated to be a new Halloween themed skin holding a Revolver weapon. This imagery has led to discussion within the community that the old Fortnite Revolver weapon or a newer version could be returning with the Fortnitemares 2018 event with Team SoloMid streamer Dakotaz leading the charge.

However, the Fortnitemares 2018 teaser image that shows off what many hope to the return of the vaulted weapon could also be pointing to a new game mode where the vaulted weapon is at the center but will once again be removed when the Fortnitemares 2018 event ends.

This particular teaser image showing off a Revolver could also be a part of the new Halloween themed skin that has been teased by Epic Games in each of the three teaser images for the Fortnitemares 2018 Halloween event.

While it remains to be seen if the Fortnite Revolver will indeed make a return to the popular battle royale title in the Fortnitemares 2018 Halloween event, there will be many happy players if the Fortnite Revolver of old or a new and improved version is added into the game this week.
