Regardless, I hope this was helpful to you, and that you were able to fumble around quite a bit less than I did and find the treasure right away.

Instead of just a treasure map, maybe it’s a scavenger hunt with multiple locations and clues, but we’ll see. I hope we see more “advanced” maps like this next season, though I wouldn’t put it past Epic to alter the entire concept, seeing as how they’re slowly changing challenges from season to season. I actually liked this map a lot because it required a bit more thinking than the others, given how relatively confusing this landmark is. The safest bet is probably to do this in 50v50 where your team members may actually be trying to get to the same thing, and that means you can have an easier approach and even potentially use a teammate’s ramps. That literally happened to me, and then you’re forced to navigate around the mesa using the limited resources there (there are only a few trees and rocks to farm). It’ll be interesting to see if Epic Games add any more old POI’s back from the old map if they do have more than two making a return.You can land directly on the spot if your bus path is helpful enough, though with so many potential platforms, you may get confused and end up on the wrong one. It seems like every old POI has some changes made to it to keep it fresh, especially for those that might not have liked those POI’s back in chapter 1. There’s a good chance we could see other locations from the old chapter 1 map returning for the new chapter ahead. Here’s a look at Wailing Woods from chapter 1 compared to the new location. Players have compared Wailing Woods from chapter 1 to the current outline on the new map which all but confirms the return of Wailing Woods. Again, a location in the snow biome of the Chapter 3 map looks like Wailing Woods. It seems like it won’t just be Shifty Shafts making its return, Wailing Woods will be returning too. Here’s an overview of Shifty Shafts along with the new outline on the new map: Fortnite Shifty Shafts Coming Back Fortnite Wailing Woods Coming Back? When comparing the outline of the two locations, it does look like Shifty Shafts is on the map with some changes to it. In the Snow Biome, it looks like Shifty Shafts from Chapter 1 will be coming back on the chapter 3 map.

Shifty Shafts Fortnite ReturnĪlthough not official, popular data-miner Hyper seems to have spotted something from the uncover the island reveal. When pushing Mountain early, they sneak up into the mineshafts and wait for a 321. When contested and beaten to Shifty Mountain, Dubs and Megga loot up to 150 or 200 HP and instantly key Shifty Mountain. We know from the leaked Battle Pass trailer that it won’t be coming back, but it seems like locations from the old map will. One lands at the top of Shifty Mountain other lands at the Mountain Entrance facing Shifty Shafts. Players were wondering if the old Fortnite map from chapter 1 would be making a return. We’re currently at 34% and two section of the snow biome on the top side of the map have been revealed along with a green/grass biome on the south-east side of the map. You can track the progress along with how much of the map has been revealed on the official flip the island website. The more percentage that gets completed, the more the new map is revealed. During downtime, players can use Fortnite Flipped to uncover the new island. We’re not sure how true the first part is, but it seems most players are happy the new season launches on a weekend. However, with the Fortnite Poland YouTube channel accidentally posting the Battle Pass trailer a few days early, Epic decided to release the season tomorrow. Since the conclusion of chapter 2, we’ve been stuck staring at Jonesy in the water slowly floating his way to the new island which was under the chapter 2 map the entire time.Īccording to data-miners, Fortnite chapter 3 season 1 was expected to launch of Tuesday, 7th December which would have meant three days of downtime. Some eagle-eyed Fortnite fans have stated the Shifty Shafts and Wailing Woods chapter 1 locations will be coming back chapter 3.įortnite players around the world are waiting for the game to be playable again.
