New Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 1 trailers look flipping fun
"Step onto the new island and explore every corner of an undiscovered world"
Epic Games has lifted the lid on Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 1 with not one but two new teasers to whet our collective appetites.
"The island from Chapter 2 has been turned upside down… literally," teases the official website. "Step onto the new island and explore every corner of an undiscovered world in Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 1: Flipped!"
Calling it a "new beginning", Epic states that the new season is the "perfect starting point for new players and a perfect returning point for those who haven’t played in a while", featuring a new wintery island, new locations, and "a few surprises", too.

Promising more than just a battlefield, Epic says the new location is ripe for exploration, too.
"Roam the western snowfield and ascend to a 'seven outpost'. Traverse the eastern tropics with a motorboat. Get a taste of cozy living in Condo Canyon. And after most of the snow has thawed, cross the grasslands and discover a previously snowed-in secret."
Talking of surprises; Spider-Man's web-shooters can be equipped regardless of what outfit you're using, but – naturally – they'll look best on Spidey himself. But he's not the only person stopping by the island.
"With the Chapter 3 Season 1 Battle Pass, unlock outfits like Spider-Man, the wanderer Ronin, the outlaw Harlowe, and more," the blog post adds. "Later on in Chapter 3 Season 1, unlock the leader of the legendary Seven: The Foundation.
