With less than 24 hours left to go before Fortnite Battle Royale's Season 8 officially begins, Epic Games continues to steadily promote the next major cycle of content to come for its massively successful free-to-play multiplayer shooter. Now, the video game developer has released the last teaser image hinting at some of the content that fans should expect to see once the eight season finally goes live.
The final teaser image for Fortnite Battle Royale's Season 8 somewhat undercuts the grandiosity of previous clues, with Epic having released a still that depicts a character that's basically a partially-peeled banana suit. This isn't to say that the picture won't be appealing to many, but it is less of an awe-inspiring teaser than the prior pieces of concept art. After all, one depicted a fierce-looking snake, and another hyped up the "beasts" to come during the eighth season.
In all likelihood, the banana suit seen in Epic Games' tweet further below will end up being one of the cosmetic costumes that players will be able to acquire once the content of Fortnite Battle Royale's Season 8 becomes accessible tomorrow. Of course, this is just speculation on our part, but should previous marketing materials for the free-to-play title's prior seasons be any indication of what's to come, then fans ought to expect the fruit-based character to be a skin that can be obtained.
Other than the latest teaser image, it's safe to presume that Fortnite Battle Royale will provide players with a whole lot more to do in Season 8, despite the fact that Epic has remained relatively silent regarding the game's next major update. For instance, not only has the studio stated that a new vehicle is in the works, but also that it has been contemplating the addition of a respawn feature.
As of now, there's still no telling exactly what Epic will be bringing to Fortnite Battle Royale once Season 8 arrives, but with the cracks in the ground continuing to grow, its highly likely players will see a new map refresh of some kind. That said, we will have to wait and see what surprises are in store when Season 8 goes live tomorrow.
Fortnite is available now in early access for Android, iOS, PC, PlayStation 4, Switch, and Xbox One.
