Fortnite fans, get ready for big changes! Chapter 6 Season 3 is set to launch on June 7, and with it comes a fresh new map update.
One of the biggest highlights of every new Fortnite season is how the island changes, and this time, the changes are quite major.
The Star Wars-themed areas introduced during the recent mini-season will be removed. That means you’ll no longer see places like Vader’s Solitude or X-Wings flying around.
Epic Games hasn’t officially released the map visuals yet, but well-known Fortnite leakers like HYPEX have shared details of what’s coming.
What’s Changing on the Map?
According to early leaks, several new Points of Interest (POIs) and landmarks will be added, replacing the Star Wars areas. Some of them are new, while others are older locations making a comeback. Here’s a look at the expected locations:
- Utopia City – replacing Crime City
- Whiffy Wharf – replacing Resistance Base
- Shogun’s Solitude – replacing Vader Samurai’s Solitude
- Supernova Academy – brand new
- Demon’s Domain & Dojo – new theme-based zones
- Spire Spike, Scout Spire, Overlord Spire – new landmarks
- Demon’s Dojo – replacing First Order Base
- Hopeful Heights – replacing Outpost Enclave
These changes will align more with a superhero-style theme that’s expected for this season. Utopia City and Supernova Academy, in particular, seem to reflect this new storyline.
How Will These Changes Affect Gameplay?
Fortnite’s seasonal updates are not just about visuals—they completely change how the game feels. New POIs impact where players land, where battles happen, and how loot is distributed.
In Chapter 6, Season 3, the removal of Star Wars locations means players can expect a more balanced gameplay style, especially since the lightsabers and force powers will be gone. The new Spires, on the other hand, might bring new movement options or hidden loot, similar to past Spire-themed updates.
While this may not be the most dramatic change in Fortnite history, it’s more significant than the usual mid-season updates.
Summary
If you’re someone who loves exploring fresh areas or finding new strategies, these map updates will add excitement to the game.
With Utopia City and Supernova Academy bringing in superhero vibes, and several Spires popping up, Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3 is shaping up to be something different.
So mark your calendars for June 7, jump in when the new season begins, and explore the updated Fortnite island!
