The history books will always list Reihana “Slaya” Green as the first every Fortnite player from the Oceania region to qualify for the World Cup. Being this is the first Fortnite World Cup and Slaya won through, by the slimmest of margins no less, on the first weekend of the qualifiers, it’s a record that can never be broken. What a lucky human! The Fortnite World Cup It’s set to be the biggest event of the year and there is some serious prize money (and fans) to be won. We were lucky enough to catch up with Slaya and to learn what it’s like to be heading to New York to be in the Fortnite World Cup. YOU WERE THE FIRST OCEANIA FORTNITE PLAYER TO WIN THROUGH TO THE WORLD…

There’s never a quiet month in the world of video games and no matter how deeply you have yourself immersed in the world of Fortnite, you can’t ignore some of the exciting developments happening elsewhere in the industry. Look at John Wick Hex, which has just been announced by developer Good Shepherd (Phantom Doctrine) and is releasing through the Epic Games Store. Based on the awesome action films, it’s not the reflex-shooter you might expect of such a game. Instead, it’s similar to the XCOM titles; a turn-based strategy where you need to plan out and execute each of Wick’s moves. This gives you a chance to orchestrate the bullet-ballet, and with the cel-shaded visual style, it’s clear the game will offer bucket-loads of style. It will first release on…

How are you enjoying Season 9? It already seems like ages ago, but it sure started with a bang. As Season 8 wound its way to an end, players got to experience a pretty awesome The Avengers promotion, with a great new game mode, skins and more. We also got digging, especially around Loot Lake. The once picturesque location was turned into a huge excavation site. Underneath it all was a secret research facility that was linked to an odd alien platform floating around the map. Eventually this location would become the portal to one of Epic Games’ most interesting ideas yet. A mass player voting station, where you were able to enter into an alternate void and then help other players excavate one of the vaulted items from the…

SWIMMING THE SLIPSTREAM In the future, we don’t need roads. Isn’t that what Doctor Emmett Brown told us all in Back to the Future? And it turns out he was right. When the future came to the Fortnite island, it brought with it Slipstream travel. No doubt you have already seen it in action: it’s a great concept and one that offers plenty of versatility in how it is used. • When you jump off the bus, aim for a Slipstream. This prevents you from auto-deploying straight away, and then you can fire yourself out the bottom of the Slipstream to get to the ground quicker than other players.• If you jump out of the slipstream, you will continue on in the direction you are facing through the air. You…

Every ladder starts on the first rung and if you want to see yourself become a serious pro player duking it out in major tournaments, or even making it to the World Cup, it’s time to go into Arena Mode. This is a new competitive space that – unlike limited time Events – is always on. These are ranked matches, comparing you directly with the rest of the Fortnite world and showing you a clear pathway from the bottom to the top. Matches in Arena Mode also behave to a different set of guidelines, called the Competitive Rules. The infamous Siphon changes from patch 8.20 still work here, meaning you’ll gain health/shield buffs when you kill players, and there is a material cap of 500 – even though you harvest…

As if we weren’t addicted enough to Fortnite, the addition of the Creative Mode has ensured that there is an endless supply of new experiences to jump into. The weekly additions of new features and materials is always shifting the focus of creators, so make sure you regularly check back in to see what people are up to. For example, in celebration of the Mega Mall arrival, a whole range of new Diner (read: restaurant) prefabs landed in the Creative Mode. This included the Durrr Burger Prefab, Uncle Pete’s Pizza Pit Prefab and SofDeez Ice Cream Shop Prefab, allowing you to make use of these iconic locations in new ways. It should come as no surprise that the futuristic buildings from the new Neo Titled cityscape are now available, as…
