It’s that wonderful time of the year. No, it is not about Winter and Holidays, it is about the Chapter change in Fortnite. In Chapter 6, Epic Games brings us the mysterious Japan with a complete shift in gameplay. Learn everything about the next chapter here in the complete Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 1 patch notes.
Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 1 Map
The Fortnite C6S1 map brings all Japanese myths and mysteries into one place. Your journey begins in a sacred place, a place where the old ways endure. Here, you’ll become a legendary demon hunter among the magic and cherry blossoms. All the new Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 1 POI are:
- Warrior’s Watch
- Flooded Frogs
- Shogun’s Solitude
- Seaport City
- Shining Span
- Canyon Crossing
- Magic Mosses
- Nightshift Forest
- The Great Turtle
Fortnite C6S1 Bosses and Medallions
With the Japanese theme, Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 1 patch notes also share more on the bosses you can find on the map.
Unveil the secrets of the shadowy Shogun X, a malevolent force consuming the island’s spirit. Conquer this demon lord to earn the Wanderer Medallion. Once you have the Medallion, it will give you the power of invisibility while sprinting and your stamina bar will be infinite.
Night Rose’s spectral form stalks the boundaries of her realm, emerging from the unseen to strike. Once you defeat her, the Night Rose Medallion drops. This Medallion grants you the auto-reload ability on all your weapons.
Fortnite Chapter 6 Weapons and Mods
Ready to level up your game? Chapter 6 brings a futuristic twist to the battlefield with the Holo Twister Assault Rifle, Fury Assault Rifle, Veiled Precision SMG, Surgefire SMG, Sentinel Pump, Twinfire Auto Shotgun, and Oni Shotgun.
Furthermore, a new targeting system will change the way you aim! But that is not it. All the traditional weapons in Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 1 will have hitscan.
Don’t like the typical weapons? Equip the Typhoon Blade to deliver rapid, precise strikes. While active, you’ll benefit from increased sprint speed and reduced stamina consumption. But you can become the true demon in the Hunters season with Oni Masks.
The lesser demons lurking around the island conceal their true power beneath a mask. Once defeated, they will drop their masks, revealing their weakness. Harness the power of the Fire Oni Mask to unleash fiery projectiles, or the Void Oni Mask to teleport across the battlefield and gain the upper hand.
The Fortnite Hunters season introduces new weapon Expertise Quests. By completing combat quests like damaging or eliminating players with specific weapons, you’ll earn XP and unlock the ability to purchase Legendary versions of those weapons from in-game characters.
Sprites and Boons Will Help You in Combat
Sprites, the embodiment of the Island’s restored magic, are endearing and helpful creatures. You can find them on the Island roaming freely. Once you interact, they will provide unique powers:
- Air Sprites create updraft whirls capable of propelling players with gliders and inflicting structural damage.
- Hurl a Water Sprite to summon a fountain that heals, replenishing health and shielding nearby players.
- Offer an item to the Earth Sprite and expect a valuable reward in return.
The Sprites are more than the temporary buffs. Discover and reactivate forgotten Sprite Shrines by offering a Sprite. As a reward, receive a powerful Boon. Boons, which can be obtained from defeated bosses or found in Chests, provide unique abilities that persist even after you are eliminated.
Here are all the Boons you can get in Fortnite Chapter 6 and their powers:
- Fire Boon – Reload your weapons faster.
- Void Boon – Eliminating players reveals other players nearby.
- Wind Boon – Move faster while your Pickaxe is equipped.
- Water Boon – Swimming grants Health and Shields to yourself and nearby swimming squadmates.
Fortnite Chapter 6 New Vehicles
The new Fortnite season is called ‘Demon’ Hunters for a reason. For all the speedsters who love being a monster on the road, you will have the chance to unleash your daredevil in Chapter 6.
Fortnite introduces Rogue Bike and Void Burn vehicles. Rogue Bike is a perfect partner for those who love doing maneuvers like popping wheelies and doing donuts. For the ones who only want swifties, get the sporty high-performing Void Burn.
All New Movement Features in Fortnite
In terms of gameplay, there are more than just guns, vehicles, or sprites and boons in Fortnite’s next season. Chapter 6 is set to revolutionize the Fortnite movement with the addition of Ledge Jump, Roll Landing, Wall Kick, and Wall Scramble. These groundbreaking features will be implemented across all game modes, from Battle Royale to Creator Islands.
- Ledge Jump: You can now elevate your parkour with a Ledge Jump! As you sprint towards a ledge, time your jump perfectly to launch yourself farther than ever before. The added momentum and height will unlock previously unreachable areas.
- Roll Landing: Don’t let gravity slow you down after you land on the ground! Fortnite Chapter 6 introduces Roll Landing, a gravity-defying trick that lets you roll your way out of a fall and regain energy.
- Wall Kick: The next Fortnite season also introduces a highly demanding feature called Wall Kick. Similar to how wall jumps in any game work, you can execute a Wall Kick by colliding with a vertical surface in mid-air. Chain your kicks properly to outsmart enemies and create fun plays.
- Wall Scramble: If you don’t want to Wall Kick by jumping on a vertical surface, there is an alternative to it. You can perform the Wall Scramble to mantle onto ledges automatically with this new movement tech.
Edit Your Build Easily with Simple Edit
If you are just like me and avoid the builder players, Epic Games shares some good news. Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 1 patch notes revealed a new system called Simple Edit. This new setting simplifies the building process, allowing you to edit structures with a single button press. The system automatically selects the right tiles, eliminating the need for complex manual editing.
While experienced builders may have more advanced editing options, Simple Edit is a great way to learn the basics and quickly build impressive structures. Epic Games also shared that they will gather data and feedback on this feature to make adjustments in the future.
