Fortnite’s last big Season 6 update brings alien abductions to the island

 If you’ve been playing Fortnite in recent days, you’ve likely noticed the increasing number of crude barriers appearing on the battle royale island’s big POIs. That’s because, it seems, the present season’s big event will apparently involve an alien invasion. Among other things, it sure seems like players can soon expect to urge abducted within the game.

 Epic released its major 16.50 Fortnite update in the week, the last major update we’ll see within the current Chapter 2 – Season 6. needless to say, the initial changes following this update are small, with the foremost notable being the return of dual pistols within the game. As well, Fortnite Creative now offers size Islands for creators. In bigger news, however, it seems aliens are coming to the Fortnite island. 

There are the Foreshadowing Challenges that were added within the last big update, ones that we now know involve things like investigating a mysterious black helicopter that crashed to the island, employing a CB radio, putting warning signs up at new crop circles, repairing telescopes, and destroying strange TVs.

 As well, a leaked animation apparently shows what is going to happen when players are abducted by aliens within the game.

Data-miners have leaked numerous details about this alien invasion, including that the UFOs will appear randomly above the island and abducted players are going to be moved elsewhere on the island with restored health and shields.

 It’s unclear whether the alien invasion will itself be the large season finale or whether there’s something bigger coming after them. All signs point toward aliens and UFOs being the large theme for the game’s upcoming Chapter 2 – Season 7, which is scheduled to arrive in fortnight.
