Fortnite have decided to eliminate Mount Olympus, Ruined Reels, Fencing Fields, and The Underworld in the next season. This decision follows the historical practice of the game to update the map frequently to enhance the experience. These shifts are core to dynamic gameplay because players tend to get accustomed to a particular location.

Mount Olympus was featured during the Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 live event. The statue on top of Mount Olympus charged up and prepared to hit the Pandora’s Box with lightning. This energy moved to the southern region of the island where it blew up in the water and left behind a flashing red light. This led to the formation of a sandstorm around the light which was coming from a shark-like boat.
