Fortnite Drops Reload Mode, Bringing Back Classic Guns and Iconic Maps!

Fortnite's new Reload mode throws players back to classic gameplay with a modern twist! This high-octane mode packs 40 players onto a smaller map featuring beloved locations like Tilted Towers and Retail Row from past seasons.

What Makes Reload Mode Unique?

Reload mode offers a thrilling comeback mechanic: as long as one teammate remains, your squad isn't out of the running. However, a complete squad wipe means immediate elimination – no second chances. This intense format applies to both Battle Royale and Zero Build modes.

The action takes place on a compact island, eliminating drivable vehicles but compensating with a diverse selection of unvaulted weapons. Expect to find old favorites like the Revolver, Tactical Shotgun, Lever Action Shotgun, Rocket Launcher, and Grappler.

Victory Crowns remain a coveted prize. Reboots are possible, but you'll return with a basic Assault Rifle (and building materials in Build mode). The Reboot Timer adds another layer of strategy, starting at 30 seconds and increasing to 40 as the match progresses. Eliminating opponents reduces this timer.

Elimination and Resource Management:

Eliminated players drop Small Shield Potions, various ammo types, and 50 of each building material (in Build mode). This keeps the battle intense and resource-driven.

Rewarding Challenges:

The Reload mode also introduces engaging intro quests offering substantial XP rewards. Complete three quests to unlock the Digital Dogfight Contrail, six for the Pool Cubes Wrap, and nine for the NaNa Bath Back Bling. A Victory Royale nets you The Rezzbrella Glider.
