Epic Games may have something exciting in store for Fortnite players. Leaks indicate that new maps might be introduced to the popular Reload and Ballistic modes soon. The speculated maps codenamed "DashBerry" and "Hammer," may bring new gameplay mechanics and keep players entertained.
Fortnite Reload currently rotates two small maps every 30 minutes, creating a fast-paced experience. The possible addition of DashBerry might bring more variety to this mode, giving players a new battleground to explore.
Meanwhile, Ballistic, which only features the Skyline 10 map, could soon expand with Hammer. This update may also introduce new quality-of-life improvements and a Fire Grenade, adding another layer of strategy to the game.
What triggered all the speculation was a map-related hint by the famous Fortnite leaker @Loolo_WRLD. Although asked when these maps would be available, the answer came cryptic but bright in potentiality. This uncertainty that envelops the date of release is what further brings one more level to the excitement, as fans cannot do anything but wait for an official announcement.
DashBerry is a mysterious name but hints at possible ties with FlowBerry and SlapBerry-based items within Fortnite. This could mean a kind of fast-paced, speed-of-play environment. Whether that be a brand new item or just an environment rich in movement-boosting elements remains to be determined. Either way, this could make Reload that much cooler.
Ballistic's possible new map, Hammer, has also given gamers something to talk about. Contrary to Reload, Ballistic has only had a single map since its initial release, and that makes this addition a much-anticipated one. Along with the Fire Grenade and what may potentially be upgraded features, this patch has all it needs to revive interest in the mode and get people back from Battle Royale.
Fortnite has developed a reputation for continuously upscaling its gameplay with new updates released at intervals to change the game experience. Leaks tend to create speculation; however, few remain untrue, so if these updates are here pretty soon, then Reload and Ballistic offer an experience for the players to be locked in. Players will need to wait for an official word from Epic Games whether these changes will arrive soon.
