Fortnite Chapter 2 Remix Season Brings Back Sharks and Midas Update
Fortnite has begun teasing its next highly-anticipated throwback season, which this year will focus on the game’s Chapter 2 era. Promotional items highlighting Chapter 2 Remix have begun landing with content creators, and from these, we can learn a little of what will be on offer.
What to Expect from Chapter 2 Remix
Chapter 2 was a pivotal era in Fortnite’s history, featuring the game’s second map. Over eight seasons, the game experienced some of its strongest creative riffs and narrative moments to date. Some of the notable events from this era include the introduction of a fan-favourite group of spies, the flooding of the map, a Marvel-focused season, an alien invasion, and the introduction of The Rock as a key character in Fortnite lore.
At least some of these events will be reprised in Chapter 2 Remix, which looks to feature a return of spy boss Midas, his buff cat lieutenant Meowscles, and the rest of their gang. Other highlights include a new remix of Midas/Meowscles, Slurp commando Rippley, and TNTina. Loot sharks, Boogie Bombs, and a building from Misty Meadows will also make a comeback.
Speculation and Expectations
The expectation among Fortnite fans is that Chapter 2 Remix will focus on the first half of the chapter. It is expected that the return to Chapter 2 will first be established, before the emergence of Midas and crew in a new map update, before his antics cause the map to flood. However, the exact details of the storyline remain to be seen.
It is expected that Fortnite Chapter 2 Remix will kick off at the end of the game’s current, Halloween-infused Marvel season at the beginning of November. Fans are eagerly awaiting the new season, which promises to bring back some of the most exciting moments from Fortnite’s past.
