Fortnite’s Squid Grounds Map: What Gamers Need to Know
Fortnite just dropped a bombshell for fans! The highly anticipated Squid Grounds map will be the sole Reload map during the launch weekend, setting the stage for a thrilling gaming experience. And guess what? It’s replacing the Oasis map in the long run.
What can players expect from Squid Grounds? This map boasts staged town sets and a hollowed-out labyrinth, alongside the nostalgic game of Red Light Green Light. With points of interest (POIs) like Player’s Power, Square Meals, and Affluent Arrivals, getting familiar with the layout is a must. Other areas include Costly Condos, Manager’s Meals, Designer Docks, Phoney Crossroads, Hectic Hedges, Red Greens, and The Labyrinth.
In addition to the map, Fortnite Reload will introduce exciting new weapons. Players can get their hands on the Red-Eye Submachine Gun, the Uncommon Boogie Bomb, and the Itemised Glider Redeploy. Plus, don’t forget that the Squid Game map launches in tandem with the Rank Reset in Fortnite Reload. Talk about timing!
