Sometimes the best way to give a game a fresh start is to wipe the slate clean completely. What better way to do that than with a nuclear bomb dropping on the middle of Fortnite’s island.
Fortnite has done live events in the past like the rocket launch, the purple cube dissolving, and sending players into another dimension, and most recently a live Marshmello concert. So why not have a live event for a nuclear bomb wiping all players from the map and changing it forever?
It might not be the next season or even the season after that, but it’s the perfect way to hit the reset button on everything with a bang.
The map could have giant craters on it filled with radiation that would make players think about looting an area and add a risk/reward to those brave enough. An apocalypse setting would also be great for some wild creatures and mutants to show up.

Cyberpunk
Fortnite has done some pretty insane things with their seasons ranging from a winter wonderland to superheroes. We would love to see Fortnite go into the far future, featuring something akin to Cyberpunk.
They could turn Tilted Towers into a futuristic looking city and even add skins of players with robotic augmentations.
Think about a tier 100 battle pass skin that starts off as a normal looking human that eventually evolves into cyborg.
This would also open the doors to some slick looking weapons like a laser gatling gun or a gun that transforms and evolves. Fortnite already has hoverboards but what about adding a hover car that the whole squad can ride around this newly formed cyberpunk world?

Medieval
If Fortnite isn’t ready to do something drastic like space or the apocalypse, a medieval setting would be a nice area to explore. They already have a few Knight outfits and castles around the map which indicates they are interested in that period.
This new season could add horses as new vehicles and maybe even allow players to joust. Adding an arena of sorts to the map similar to their soccer stadium could give the map a medieval games kind of vibe.
The idea of a king and queen skin for the battle pass already has us waiting to fork over money to Epic.
New game modes like an attack/defend castle siege would be a significant change of pace for those looking to take a break from the battle royale grind, or maybe an in-game tournament which includes jousting and sword fighting to award players v-bucks or exclusive skins.
Since medieval castles and royal knight skins have already been seen in Fortnite, it would be great to see them go all the way with it.
A medieval theme certainly seems like something Epic has been toying around with at a base level, but we would love to see them commit to this idea for a full season.

Ancient Egypt
Ancient Egypt is a favorite period in both history and video games. Raiding tombs and uncovering mystical mummies, pharaohs, and Egyptian gods are fascinating, which could lead to a fun season idea for Fortnite.
The map could be littered with different tombs for players to explore, camels to ride, and secrets to uncover.
Part of the Fortnite map has already been converted to a desert, which would make the transition to Egypt even easier.
Turning some of the older spots like Paradise Palms to more Ancient Egypt inspired areas regions littered with pyramids would work well to give the map a new coat of paint. The Nile River could flow through the entire map offering players small boats as a mean of traversal.
Skins are a massive part of Fortnite, and Ancient Egypt is a great place to pull from. We already mentioned mummies and pharaohs, but explorer skins akin to Indiana Jones would make tomb hunting even more exciting. We hope Fortnite visits Ancient Egypt someday soon.
