Fortnite Unveils Reload Mode: Classic Weapons and Maps Return!

Fortnite's new Reload mode brings back classic vibes with a modern twist! This fast-paced mode throws 40 players onto a smaller map packed with nostalgic locations from past updates.

What's in Reload Mode?

Reload mode offers a unique comeback mechanic: your squad can be revived as long as one member survives. A full squad wipe means game over. This high-stakes gameplay applies to both Battle Royale and Zero Build modes.

The action takes place on a compact island featuring iconic locations like Tilted Towers and Retail Row. While vehicles are absent, the loot pool is brimming with unvaulted weapons – think Revolver, Tactical Shotgun, Lever Action Shotgun, Rocket Launcher, and even the Grappler!

Victory Crowns remain, and reboots bring a common Assault Rifle (plus building materials in Build mode). The Reboot Timer adds intensity, starting at 30 seconds and increasing to 40, but can be reduced by eliminating opponents. Players can choose to immediately begin their reboot.

Elimination and Rewards

Eliminated players drop Small Shield Potions, ammo, and building materials (in Build mode), keeping the battle intense and resource-driven.

The mode also features intro quests offering substantial XP rewards. Complete three quests for the Digital Dogfight Contrail, six for the Pool Cubes Wrap, nine for the NaNa Bath Back Bling, and a Victory Royale unlocks The Rezzbrella Glider.
