There is something so exciting about speculation during the run up to a new Fortnite season. What will the map look like? What new features will be introduced? Will any of our favorite weapons be returning? As we approach the new season, we’re here to share what we know so far about Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 5’s new and returning weapons!
All Rumored New and Returning Weapons in Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 5
It is all but confirmed that parts of Chapter 1 are returning to Fortnite for the new season and the rumor mill has never spun so hard! According to Wenso, known for reliable Fortnite news and leaks on X/Twitter, the Pump and Tactical Shotguns will be returning for Chapter 4 Season 5.
The reasoning behind this is that before every unvault, Epic polishes up the animations in preparation for their return. This happened with Balloons before the birthday event, and again with the C4 Explosives this season.
Those are the only weapons leaked so far, but if we are to believe that more from Chapter 1 is returning, there should be plenty of other weaponry people sleuth out before long.
What Other Weapons Could Chapter 4 Season 5 Offer?
According to Hypex on X/Twitter, Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 5 will experience time like never before. Each week is rumored to speed through each Chapter 1 season, complete with weapons and POIs.
Chapter 1 had iconic weapons like the Hand Cannon, the LMG, the Minigun, and my personal favorite: the Heavy Sniper. Any one of these could be set to return, along with the Pump Shotgun and Tactical Shotgun. Your favorite POIs such as Tilted Towers, Tomato Town, and Greasy Grove may also make an appearance. It is also possible that the old Rocket Launcher could make an explosive return, especially since the Pumpkin Launcher was brought back during Fortnitemares.
Until we know more, we can only wait for more leaks until the new season is upon us! In the meantime, you can keep up to date with Fortnite news and tips by checking out more guides below.
