Fortnite: 50v50 V2 Makes Its Return To Battle Royale, “Jump In Now!”

Fortnite

With the recent addition of Avengers: Infinity War’s Thanos to the game, Fortnite is clearly seeking world domination. The Mad Titan is featured in a limited time mashup that has players going crazy to get their hands on (in?) the powerful Infinity Gauntlet. While that is proving to be a smash hit with fans, another mode captured the hearts of players long before ol’ thicc Thanos arrived.

After the return of Fortnite’s popular 50v50 mode in Battle Royale during Season 3, players took to the divided map and started building the craziest forts imaginable – the forts of friendship. However, the game’s Twitter account just announced that 50v50 V2 is back! Check out the announcement below:

For those not familiar with Fortnite’s 50v50 V2 mode in Battle Royale, here’s the rundown:

  • Two teams of 50 fight to the finish!
    • Due to this being a “large squad” mode, Profile Stats will not be tracked. Daily & Weekly challenges will still work, with the exception of the Squad-based challenges (‘Place Top 6 in Squads’, etc.).
  • Storm & Map
    • Each team has a bus, approaching the island from opposite directions. On the map, the friendly bus has a blue outline, enemy has red.
    • Final storm circle visible on minimap at start.
    • Players have 10 minutes to loot the map as the storm closes in on the circle, then 5 minutes to fight, and another 5 minutes as the storm shrinks to the end.
    • Supply drops come in batches of 3-6, fall every two minutes, and only land in the final storm circle.
    • Added dotted line to map, which indicates the “battle lines” between the two teams. Crossing the line will make running into enemies more likely.
  • Loot
    • Farming resources increased 75% over default.
    • Increased floor loot spawn likelihood by 15%.
    • Floor Loot spawns double ammo.
    • Ammo boxes spawn triple ammo.
    • Chests spawn double ammo & consumables.
    • Supply drops spawn double ammo, and an extra consumable, resource drop and trap.

Fortnite is currently in Season 4 and available on PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and iOS devices. There’s no telling how long 50v50 V2 will be available, so it’s best to jump in and start building as soon as possible.
