Despite the season just kicking off, players have already uncovered a potential clue pointing toward the looming threat of a nuclear disaster. New character Skillet, who has an affinity for explosions, may be preparing to launch a nuke that could obliterate large sections of the map.
The clue can be found at Skillet’s shop, located in the mountain to the north of Crime City. Head up to the second floor and you’ll spot a diagram detailing a nuke’s creation. This includes a "Devil's Core"—a plutonium sphere used in nuclear devices—and a warhead, with a big “BOOM” drawn beside them. It’s an ominous hint at a potential catastrophic event for the Fortnite island.
As for Skillet’s motivations, it seems he’s just a character obsessed with destruction. Whether or not this results in an actual nuke being deployed is still uncertain, but it’s certainly a possibility that could lead to another massive transformation of the map—one that could serve as a dramatic season-ending event.
This idea of a nuclear event would echo the Wrecked season from Chapter 5, Season 3, when a sandstorm ravaged the island, giving it a Mad Max-like feel. That season also introduced a post-nuke aesthetic, including a crossover with Fallout and an unexpected appearance by Magneto. It’s possible that a nuclear apocalypse could be revisited, but with a fresh twist.
While we can’t be sure if this is the direction Fortnite will take, the potential for a massive nuke crater and radiation-altered parts of the landscape would certainly create a visually distinct experience compared to past apocalyptic seasons. Plus, the idea of integrating other nuclear-themed media could lead to some interesting crossovers—imagine a Silo skin with Rebecca Ferguson?
Even though we’re still early into the season, the nuclear bomb idea seems like a strong possibility. But we’ll have to wait and see how things develop. One thing’s for sure: the future of Fortnite is looking explosively unpredictable.
