Summary
- Fortnite fans are eagerly awaiting the release of Chapter 4 Season 4, and a mysterious blood moon picture received by a content creator could be a teaser for the upcoming season.
- Epic Games has managed to keep the details of the new season a secret, leaving players in the dark about what to expect.
- The picture and note received by the content creator may indicate a dark ecliptic theme, possibly connected to the character Kouji Datura and the Order of the Waning Moon set.
A Fortnite content creator received a mysterious blood moon picture in the mail, and it could be related to the release of Chapter 4 Season 4. As many gamers already know, Chapter 4 Season 3 will be coming to an end soon, which means that Fortnite will have a completely different theme before the end of August. Although the upcoming Fortnite season will be live on August 25, players are still unaware of what the future could hold for the popular battle royale game, as not a lot of details have been disclosed yet.
Epic Games has managed to successfully lay low and escape the hands of the dataminers; not even the most known community leakers have been able to reveal any relevant information. As Chapter 4 Season 3 reaches its final stretch, the Fortnite Battle Royale map has finally exhibited some changes that could be related to an end-of-season event. The Apparatus, an important landmark this season, has been activated, and it's currently shooting a pink beam into the sky, alarming some players mid-match.
According to some Doctor Slone audio logs available in-game, glyphs on the island indicate that an eclipse will happen soon, and she intends to charge the Apparatus and use it as a stellar projector. This eclipse could be an important part of the upcoming Fortnite season. Recently, content creator Sharshock received a picture of an eclipse with a blood moon on it, and he claims that this is the first Chapter 4 Season 4 teaser. The picture came with a note that said, "Thank you for the addition to my collection." It was signed Kouji Datura, and "datura" is a flower that's commonly known as the Moonflower.
It is possible that the picture and the note could be clues for a dark ecliptic theme coming to Fortnite. None of the Battle Pass skins have been revealed, and Kouji Datura could be the name of one of the reward characters.
Fans started analyzing Sharshock's tweet right away and coming up with plausible theories for what it could all mean. Many gamers pointed out that the picture of the eclipse resembled Ronin's Crimson Crest back bling. Ronin was a Chapter 3 Season 1 Battle Pass skin, and he is part of the Order of the Waning Moon set. His back bling and the necklace around his neck both look like the red blood moon that appears in the picture sent to Sharshock, and various players believe there could be a connection here.
Fortnite is available on Mobile, PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
