With the update having been available for a few days, Fortnite Battle Royale players have begun to note down these Shrine locations....

The Golden Mushroom is Fortnite’s rarest consumable item. Here’s how players can increase their odds of stumbling upon one. One of those items is the Mythic Goldish. The only way to catch a Mythic Goldfish outside of Creative Mode is to fish for one as if it were any other type of aquatic animal found in Fortnite.

Upon its initial launch in 2017, Epic Games’ own battle royale Fortnite became an instant hit, instantly popularizing the battle royale genre among gamers and non-gamers alike. And while Fortnite remains the light-hearted third-person shooter it started out as, it has developed its own lore over the years with the likes of The Visitor, Rifts, The Cube, and more. Chapter 2 Season 5 has arguably been the game’s most ambitious season yet, with perhaps even more ambitious crossovers....

When Fortnite Season 6 debuted, it introduced a brand new item called Shadow Stones that transformed battle royale players into ghostly beings that could pass through solid objects.

There is seldom a moment when players cannot find something to do, even if they’re not engaging directly in firefights....

Fortnite Season 3 is still in its early days, but fans appear to have taken to the new changes quite well, with the majority of the map now submerged in water. However, it’s unlikely that this will be the new normal for the battle royale, and new leaks do seem to confirm that things will slowly go back to how they were. According to leaker Lucas7Yoshi, who has regularly and reliably leaked information about Fortnite before, the water will eventually recede to a point where the map will resemble how it did originally....

Coming less than two months after its blowout panel/spectacle at 2022’s San Diego Comic-Con, Marvel Studios’ presentation at parent company Disney’s own D23 Expo was preceded by massive expectations out in fandom and the Twitterverse. The reasoning was that Marvel – even after laying out all of Phase 5 and parts of Phase 6 in Hall H – was going to spring even more mind-melting announcements on the fans at D23 (cue the “Henry Cavill for Doctor Doom” tweets)....
