Fortnite New Deboot Van: What Could It Be?

Everyone knows Fortnite's Reboot Van, which was introduced several years ago to let you reanimate teammates eliminated in battle. However, the Deboot Van could make an appearance in Season 4 Chapter 4.

Leakers have just discovered the presence of the Deboot Van in Fortnite files on the occasion of the Chapter 4 Season 4 update. Since then, many players have been wondering what this mysterious new van, which competes with the Reboot Van, could be used for.

Fortnite Deboot Van: Will It Kill Players?

On Twitter, leaker Shiina posted a rather pixelated image of the Deboot Van, discovered by LeakySussed, without giving any details. So in response, interpretations started flowing in about this potentially deadly new feature.

Most players will expect this new van to have the opposite effect to the Reboot Van, which allows you to revive allies whose cards you've recovered after they've been eliminated. And that kinda makes sense.

Some players suggested that the Deboot Van could steal cards from eliminated players. Others have suggested that the Deboot Van could eliminate a player at random on the map, which seems highly unlikely though.

For the moment, we have no confirmation of the usefulness of this Deboot Van. Note that it is not yet in the game at the time of writing, and we don't even know if it will see the light of day.

We're sure we'll have to wait a few more weeks for more information on this potential feature, and we'll be sure to keep you posted.
