According to the latest leaks, Fortnite will get a new competitive mode later this year, where players will have to compete against each other in car races. Here come the details.
Fortnite goes Need for Speed! Okay, that might be a bit of an exaggeration, but according to the latest leaks, Fortnite will get its own car racing mode in chapter 5, and with more content than you might expect.
Although Fortnite's Battle Royale mode was released after Save the World, it was significantly more successful and popular than its predecessor. And now with Creative 2.0, there are even a lot more options out there for players! Some have already created car races in Fortnite, but what Epic Games is about to release might be beyond the scope.
Competitive Racing Mode With Customizable Vehicles To Come To Fortnite
This news comes from leaker Krowe moh.
The new auto-racing mode, codenamed "DelMar," is expected to be listed as both a competitive and casual playlist, with player rankings split into 18 division levels. It is not yet known how the new ranking system will work, but it is said that there "could be a leaderboard."
