FORTNITE'S CRAZY EVENT YESTERDAY COVERED ISLAND IN SNOW AND ZOMBIES

By Tom Chapman
Published Jan 20, 2019


Epic Games' Ice Storm event reveals what the Ice King is up to in Fortnite
Season 7, with the whole map now covered in snow and frozen zombies.



Winter has come, as Fortnite goes Game of Thrones and covers the sprawling map
in a blanket of snow. As Epic Games gears up for Season 8 of the blockbusting
battle royale game, the title's latest mystery has just been solved as the Ice
Storm event makes its mark.

Epic Games has truly mastered the art of the teaser ahead of each new season.
Just like rocket launches and tears in space, the addition of a giant blue orb
had players guessing what was coming their way. The villainous Ice King is
bringing trouble to the lands of Fortnite along with his own army of frozen
zombies.

Epic Games teased something big was on its way when TV screens dotted
around Fornite started showing a "weather warning" bulletin. The Ice Storm event
officially kicked off on January 19, when Fortnite was covered in a blanket of
snow. Fortnite legend Ninja posted the big moment on his Twitter where gamers
can see the Ice King releasing an icy storm across the entire map. The Ice King
was previously kept inside a floating orb that occupied a small space by Polar
Peak.



For the foreseeable future, it looks like things will be pretty cold
in Fortnite. Frozen monsters known as Ice Fiends are currently spawning from
blue stones scatted around the map, and come with a unique set of challenges to
help players earn winter-inspired outfits and gear. Fornite fans may remember
that frozen zombies previously popped up in October's Fortnitemares event.



More than just a change to Fortnite's visuals, the Ice Storm brings new tasks to
complete. Destroying 250 Ice Fiends will earn fans 500 XP, while completing six
Ice Storm challenges unlocks a black and ice blue wrap. There are 10 more
challenges on the way, and if players complete them all, they'll be rewarded
with the Winter’s Thorn Glider. This looks like it is just the start of
something bigger. There is a secret bunker where the iceberg used to stand in
Happy Hamlet and a clutch of eggs in the castle prison at Polar Peak.

Thankfully, there isn't too long to wait until these new mysteries are
fully unraveled. With the wintery Season 7 kicked off in December, Epic Games is
rounding off the current season in style. Players will have to keep their eyes
peeled and see what the Ice King is up to as Fornite continues to be one of the
most popular games around.
