What does the Fortnite map look like? Chapter 5 Season 2 was off to a rather shaky start, with some minor server issues, players are digging deep into the changes. This time, the Ancient Greek gods have deemed the ever-shifting island a perfect battleground to settle their internal feuds.
Since the battle royale game is constantly in flux, everything in this guide probably will change throughout the season. This goes also for the many Fortnite weapons, which have now completely changed and can now include attachments. So, pull up a chair as we go through the changes to the Fortnite map in Chapter 5 Season 2.
Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 map
With a brand new map to explore, here are all the POIs and whether or not they’re any good for loot:
- The Underworld – replacing Ritzy Rivera is the home of Hades. The main building complex has several god chests inside and tons of regular loot and ammo crates.
- Grim Gate – a relatively small area guarding the path to The Underworld. It also has some god chests in its main building’s hallways, as well as lots of guns and ammo to tempt you inside.
- Mount Olympus – this huge area replaces Hazy Hillside, but is packed with god chests, loot, and even a job board. Look to the peak of Mount Olympus in the east, far higher than the statue, to find a god chest.
- Brawler’s Battleground – the main arena has about as much loot inside as Grim Gate, but there are plenty of items also in the structure to the east. Worth exploring if the storm begins in a forgiving place.
- Classy Courts – not quite as good for mythic items, but a good amount of loot.
- Fencing Fields – by far the best spot on the map for a good quantity of loot, and you also may get a chance to walk away with a mythic item.
- Grand Glacier – home to a pretty hotel with a good amount of loot, and some stunning views.
- Lavish Lair – a decent loot haul here, but there are lots of vantage points for enemies to blast you from, so try not to linger too long.
- Pleasant Piazza – a good amount of loot here, but the main attraction is the network of tunnels that you can use to ambush your foes.
- Rebel’s Roost – there’s not a lot of loot here, but the underground sections have weapon cases with upgraded guns.
- Reckless Railways – while not the best place for overall loot, there’s a lot more cover to allow you to win firefights. You can also easily catch the train here.
- Restored Reels – now restored to its former glory, this is still relatively quiet and can yield a good amount of loot, including a weapon case hidden away underground.
- Snooty Steppes – the steppes boast a reasonable amount of loot, but you’ll have to get lucky to bag a top-tier weapon here.
