Fortnite's new "Reload" mode brings back classic maps with a modern twist! This fast-paced mode throws 40 players onto a smaller map featuring iconic locations like Tilted Towers and Retail Row.
What's New in Fortnite Reload Mode?
Reload mode offers intense squad-based combat where a single surviving teammate keeps the fight alive. A full squad wipe means elimination; there are no second chances. This high-stakes gameplay applies to both Battle Royale and Zero Build modes.
The action is concentrated on a compact island, excluding drivable vehicles but overflowing with unvaulted weapons. Expect to find old favorites like the Revolver, Tactical Shotgun, Lever Action Shotgun, Rocket Launcher, and Grappler.
Victory Crowns remain a key objective. Rebooted players return with a common 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 enemies reduces this timer. Downed players can choose to initiate their reboot immediately.
Elimination and Rewards
Eliminated players drop Small Shield Potions, ammo, and building materials (in Build mode), fueling the ongoing battle.
The mode also features introductory quests offering substantial XP rewards. Complete three quests to earn the Digital Dogfight Contrail, six for the Pool Cubes Wrap, and nine for the NaNa Bath Back Bling. A Victory Royale unlocks The Rezzbrella Glider.
