Last week Epic Games, the developers of Fortnite’s extremely popular Battle Royale mode revealed that a big map update would be coming this week. Now, more information about the map update has been revealed, and here’s every new location and city in Fortnite Battle Royale that you can expect to see on the map when it comes to the game. On top of all the new locations, the map itself will be receiving an overhaul, making it a bit easier to look at.
Fortnite – All New Cities and Locations
The new map update for Fortnite Battle Royale is exciting for players and it looks to fill in a lot of the empty space that’s been on the map since release. This also means that players will now have even more places to land and loot, which is definitely something for players to look forward to. There are a total of five new areas for players to explore and loot, and we’ve outlined them all below.
Junk Junction
Located on the northwestern most corner of the map, Junk Junction will give players who want to land away from the battle a good place to go. It also helps fill in a lot of the emptiness in that corner, and gives players access to surrounding areas like Pleasant Park. Of course, with Pleasant Park being such a popular place, there’s probably not going to be much loot left over after.
Haunted Hills
Just south of Junk Junction, players will find Haunted Hills, a new area that you can land and loot up in. It also provides easy access to the western edge of Pleasant Park, and if you’re lucky enough to find a sniper rifle in the area, you’ll have some nice vantage points to make the most of.
Snobby Shores
Also located along the western edge of the map is Snobby Shores. This area looks to be a new small city that players can explore and loot up within. It’s pretty far away from anything else, but it will provide you with options to move to places like the new Titled Towers city or Greasy Grove.
Titled Towers
The main attraction of the new update, Titled Towers is just south of Loot Lake and offers a ton of new buildings and large areas for players to loot and fight in. It’s guaranteed to be a hot spot in almost every match—thanks to its central location—and we’re sure that players will find plenty within to keep them coming back to it.
Shifty Shafts
This new mining area is just south of Titled Towers and will give players tunnels and other things to explore and find loot in. It’s also very close to Greasy Grove, which means it will most likely see plenty of action from those looking to have a good access point to other locations.
That’s all the new areas in the map update. We’ve also included an image of the new map above, so that you can see the new areas’ locations easily. For more help make sure you check out our Fortnite Battle Royale guide.
