Fortnite is about to take an exciting turn into Chapter 6, bringing with it a Japanese-inspired theme and introducing popular characters from different franchises. The update offers new POIs, gameplay changes, and fresh skins and cosmetics to collect, blending traditional elements with the familiar battle royale experience.

Fortnite Chapter 6 Battle Pass Leaks Highlights: Godzilla, Baymax, and Japanese Theme
Reliable Fortnite leakers on X like ShiinaBR and SamLeakss have been sharing the key art for Chapter 6 Season 1 which reveals some incredible additions to the game. Two massive collaborations steal the spotlight: Godzilla, the legendary kaiju, and Baymax from Disney’s Big Hero 6. Godzilla’s exact role remains uncertain – whether as a skin, NPC boss, or event feature, but its presence stands out in the promotional artwork material.
The new chapter, subtitled “Hunters,” is inspired by Japanese mythology and culture in its world design. As revealed in earlier leaks, Chapter 6 will offer a variety of original ninja—and samurai-themed skins that aim to deliver an authentic experience.
A new version of the popular Hope skin will debut, along with the return of Pet Back Blings. Katana weapons, including the mysterious Masamune Blades, will also be introduced, adding to the season’s Japanese-inspired theme. So, players can look forward to using traditional Japanese weapons and wearing themed cosmetics during their matches.
New Map POI in Fortnite Chapter 6
The POI map in Chapter 6 Season 1 will feature Japanese-themed locations and landmarks with traditional architecture, bringing a touch of old-Japan-era to the game. A standout addition is the Oni masks scattered across the map, offering special powers to players who discover them. These masks might be found inside loot chests too.
