We already know that planes will be making their descent right on out of Fortnite at the end of Season 7, and with pirates on the way, many have wondered if this means ships will become the new vehicle. Of course, with all ships, one must have some sweet cannons to fire at approaching enemies. Whether or not these items will make their way into Battle Royale will have to wait until Season 8 arrives, but let the speculation ensue.
Fortnite is currently available on PC, PlayStation 4, Switch, Xbox One, and mobile devices. Keep it tuned to Don’t Feed the Gamers as this story develops, and for other gaming goodness going on right now, check out the following:
