To celebrate summer, Epic Games unveiled the Road Trip event in Fortnite. Before jumping in, here is everything you need to know about the start date and how to earn every reward.
Epic Games employees have returned from summer break, and the development team has made the wait worthwhile. A collaboration with Fantastic Four, coinciding with the release date of the new movie, is coming. In addition, Chapter 6 Season 4 is expected to start on August 8, and the update will reportedly add new weapons and POIs on the map, themed around an alien invasion.
Fortnite also reportedly has a ‘6-player’ squad mode in development, allowing players to add even more friends to their party. Before looking too far ahead, though, let’s jump into what fans can expect from the Summer Road Trip event.
