What’s New in Fortnite Season 6
Shadow Stones
Unlike pets, the new Shadow Stones do have a direct impact on the gameplay of Fortnite. Not only do Shadow Stones complement the new dark theme of Fortnite Season 6, they also act as consumables. They can usually be found around corrupted areas of the map, and using one will bestow you with many cool buffs.
Using a Shadow Stone will apply Shadow Form on you —a form that has both its strengths and weaknesses. The main weakness is that you won’t be able to use weapons. You also become faster and lighter, with the trade-off that you’re much more visible to the enemy while moving. When stationary, however, you become completely invisible, which could be useful to avoid a big fight that is going on. Shadow Form also allows access to the Phase ability, which lets you teleport a short distance and fade through objects.
