As the wind blows, the sun rises on a beautiful new island, shrouded in mystery and mystical energy. In its darkest corners, demons dwell, wreaking havoc with their masks of chaotic power. Great heroes must rise to drive back the ancient evils that roam this land. Become a ronin and cut through the darkness to find the light in Fortnite Battle Royale Chapter 6 Season 1: 鬼 HUNTERS (Demon Hunters) !
Legends Come to Life
Welcome to the Chapter 6 map, where cherry blossoms fall on soil long-protected by spiritual forces and timeworn magic. It’s here you’ll make a name for yourself as a demon hunter.
Ancient Architecture
Virtue is found in tradition. Vanquish the lesser demons laying siege to the grand structure of the Warrior’s Watch , train for combat duty at Flooded Frogs , or ascend the mountain peak to test your mettle against foes at Shogun’s Solitude .
Modern Marvels
The dense commercial district of Seaport City redefines close quarters, while the Shining Span connects it to neighboring villages such as Canyon Crossing , a cliffside getaway complete with competing bun shops.
Supernatural Secrets
In-between the serene landscapes lies sacred ground such as the overgrown Magic Mosses with its obelisks and underground treasures and the Nightshift Forest , where the sun does not shine. Watching over it all is The Great Turtle , a venerable old soul, searching for its lost partner.
Ready Your Blade
Dispel the spreading darkness by hunting the dangerous Shogun X , a powerful demon warrior that rampages across the island gathering spirit energy. Defeat Shogun X for the Wanderer Medallion , which grants infinite stamina and invisibility while sprinting.
Beware of Night Rose , whose spirit has been known to stalk those who enter her domain with surprise attacks from another realm. She drops the Night Rose Medallion on elimination, which makes your weapons reload themselves.
Magic & Gunpowder
Chapter 6 Season 1 introduces new weapon Expertise Quests , where completing combat quests such as damaging or eliminating players with certain weapons will reward XP and unlock the option to purchase a Legendary version of that weapon type from characters on the map.
All traditional weapons in Battle Royale Chapter 6 will be hitscan! Chapter 6 features futuristic firearms such as the Holo Twister Assault Rifle , Fury Assault Rifle , Veiled Precision SMG , Surgefire SMG , Sentinel Pump , Twinfire Auto Shotgun , and Oni Shotgun .
Unsheath the devastatingly precise Typhoon Blade and unleash a flurry of rapid strikes. While wielding it, you'll consume less stamina while sprinting and sprint faster.
Lesser demons around the island will drop their masks of power when defeated. Don the Fire Oni Mask and launch homing flame projectiles for big damage, or teleport with the Void Oni Mask to reposition and outplay opponents!
Sprites, Sprite Shrines, and Boons
Endearing and helpful, Sprites are the living representation of Magic returned to the Island. Found roving all over, these innocent creatures provide unique effects.
Bring a Sprite to one of the forgotten Sprite Shrines around the Island to revitalize them and gain a powerful Boon . Boons, which drop from bosses and can also be found in Chests, are consumed on pickup and persist even after elimination.
Ride in Style
Calling all speed freaks! Leave enemies in the dust with the new Rogue Bike , a modern motorcycle great for popping wheelies and doing donuts. You can also put pedal to metal in the Void Burn , a sporty high-performance two-door that’ll swiftly get you where you want to be.
New Movement Features
Chapter 6 adds Ledge Jump , Roll Landing , Wall Kick , and Wall Scramble to the core movement of Fortnite! These new movement features will be universally applied across Battle Royale, Reload, and Creator-made islands.
Ledge Jump
Roll Landing
Wall Kick
Wall Scramble
Introducing Simple Edit
Simple Edit , a new build setting you can toggle on in the Settings menu, allows for editing builds with a single button press. The resulting edit is based on the part of the building you’re looking at rather than being painted manually — it automatically executes building edits immediately, removing the step of selecting tiles altogether. Simple Edit makes editing on the fly a breeze, and it should also prove helpful for players who are new to building in Fortnite or interested in learning. Simple Edit allows for a smaller subset of edits to choose from, and masters of the current edit system will have more edit options available. As with any major addition to Fortnite, we’ll be gathering data and feedback on Simple Edit and may make adjustments to the system in the future.
