Fortnite: hot spots

The hot spots system used by Electronic Arts on Apex Legends seems to have once again inspired Epic Games which has just released its own version of hot spots on Fortnite's Battle Royale mode.

Fortnite: hot spots

This addition will probably remind you of something if you have ever set foot in the Kings Canyon. Indeed, with the 9.10 update, Fortnite has acquired a system of hot spots that is similar to the one in Apex Legends. On the other hand, Epic Games has taken care to propose a very different formula:

  • In each game, at least 1 locality (maximum 3) will appear in gold on the map. These hot spots indicate the presence of loot carriers.
  • Shoot down these carriers to obtain additional high quality weapons.
  • 25% chance that 2 hot spots will appear.
  • 5% chance that 3 hot spots will appear.

Loot carriers

  • Loot carriers reveal a weapon of rare or superior quality as well as two piles of ammunition.
  • The hot spots will contain between 12 and 16 loot carriers depending on the size of the site.
