Exciting weekend for Fortnite fans
Fortnite fans were in for a treat this weekend as the latest live event brought a major change to the game. A series of earthquakes triggered the emergence of a giant flaming Titan Hand from under the Fortnite map, challenging players to defeat it.
Breaking the chains
The giant hand held a chest bound with chains, prompting players to work together to take it down. With a health bar indicating the progress, players diligently chipped away at the box's defenses in every match until all six chains finally snapped.
Pandora's Box opens
After 24 hours of anticipation, the final chain broke, causing the box to drop to the ground. As the lid opened, Fortnite was forever altered for the upcoming season, drawing parallels to the myth of Pandora's Box.
Mysterious aftermath
Following the box's opening, a glowing orange tornado emerged from within, reaching up into the sky. Inside the tornado, ghostly demonic hands could be seen swirling around, offering a tantalizing glimpse of what's to come. Players can even use the tornado to launch themselves into the sky if needed.
What's next for Fortnite?
The opening of Pandora's Box marks the beginning of the build-up to Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2, set to commence on March 8. While not much has transpired since the box opened, the ominous tornado hints at more surprises in store for players as the current season draws to a close.
