Epic Games has kicked off Chapter 3 Season 2: Resistance by temporarily removing building from the game.
The twist was revealed earlier today when the battle royale developer unveiled what's new in Chapter 3 Season 2 with the surprise announcement that for now, all players will get a new Overshield now that building - a Fortnite staple - has been "wiped out".
"Building has been wiped out!", Epic teased on the official Fortnite website. "To help maintain cover, you now have an Overshield on top of your Shield and Health. The Overshield is your first line of defense: before your Shield and Health take a hit, it's your Overshield that'll crack. Your Overshield will still recover if it goes all the way down to 0."
Confused about what's happening? Us, too. Thankfully, though, an in-game loading screen has been shared online that helps add a little story context to the shocking change.
