Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 Out Now – Themed Around Greek Mythology Plus Korra from Avatar

Epic Games has announced the arrival of Chapter 5, Season 2 in Fortnite. This season is largely themed around Greek mythology, featuring gods like Hades and Zeus.

The island of the Battle Royale mode has been overhauled as a result. Mount Olympus has been added, and you'll also find the Underworld in the West of the island if you cross the river at Grim Gate. Beware of the three-headed guard dog Cerberus, though. Ares has his own Brawler’s Battleground arena as well. It's located south of Mount Olympus.

The Wings of Icarus are also available as a random power-up while exploring the island.

A third Olympian Power called Chains of Hades will be added later in the Season. Epic didn't provide any details on this one yet, but it seems likely it'll allow players to use it as a grappling hook.
