Once the current Remix season ends, Fortnite Chapter 6 will arrive. Lately, chapter changes in the game have included major shifts in gameplay and even the inclusion of brand-new permanent game modes. While it’s not likely to mirror Chapter 5’s introduction, players can expect Chapter 6’s arrival to be pretty incredible. With weeks to go until it actually launches, a few leaks have already begun to surface.

Fortnite Chapter 6 Leaks Arrive
Chapter 6 will launch in December. Fortnite players have until November 30 to enjoy Remix before the next chapter update goes live. In that update, there will be a lot of content. According to leaker ShiinaBR, it’s shaping up to be a massive chapter.
First, and this has been known for a little while, the new chapter will have a Japanese theme. Some of the leaks and teasers have indicated this. Epic Games has done this before with locations and other aspects of the game, but the full chapter’s theme will be similar this time.
In this chapter, medallions will return. They’ve been present in non-OG/Remix seasons since the beginning of Chapter 5. They will be revamped, though. How they will remains to be seen, but they won’t function the same way and might be nerfed again.
New game mechanics, including going prone like in Call of Duty and swinging, are set to be added as well. There will also reportedly be cats on the island that follow players around. Of course, with the chapter launching in December, the Winterfest Update will come during the first season. It’s expected to launch on December 10.
Chapter 6 will remove battle stars and revert to the previous battle pass progression. The Quad Launcher is expected to return to the loot pool. There is a new “void” feature and there will be a brand-new industrial POI.
Finally, as previously mentioned, Chapter 6’s arrival will eventually lead to the return of Fortnite OG in a permanent sense. Please remember that these are leaks and are not guaranteed to come to fruition until either they do, or Epic Games confirms them for Fortnite Chapter 6.
