Epic Games teases additional Fortnite content prior to Season 3 launch tomorrow

The Hype Builds for New Content in Fortnite: Battle Royale Season Three

The excitement is reaching its peak as Season Three of Fortnite: Battle Royale is set to launch tomorrow. In anticipation of the big day, Epic Games took to Twitter this morning to further fuel the hype.

Twitter Image

The tweet from the official Fortnite account features an image of a man against a black and white background. The picture seems to depict a man with a revenge plan.

A Nod to John Wick and Scarface

The character in the image brings to mind the iconic character from the action movie franchise John Wick. However, the color scheme and the context of the tweet suggest it may also be an homage to Scarface.

It is highly probable that this image teases a new skin, which would be truly awesome. The presence of a well-dressed hitman in a suit has a timeless quality that can instill fear in the hearts of enemy players.

New Weapon or Loading Screen?

However, it is also possible that Epic Games is hinting at a new weapon. The handgun held by the character strongly resembles a Desert Eagle. Alternatively, the image might be one of the new loading screens included in the Season Three Battle Pass.

We can only speculate at this point, but the wait is almost over. Season Three is set to go live early on Thursday morning, February 22.
