A new Fortnite players of the Nintendo Switch, PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X / S and mobile Battle Royale games go crazy with speculations about what Epic Games is planning for season. The new season is finally here, and for that, Epic Games has made some major changes to the game, including some map changes, and it looks like this is just the beginning, as new leaks indicate that something even bigger is brewing , but it remains to be seen whether this will happen during season 6 or season 7.
Take to Twitter, prominent Fortnite leak HypeX shared what they recently discovered in the game’s files. While browsing through the files that were added with the latest update, the leaker came across a mysterious, unissued item that is a meteor, even though it is ‘coder’ in the files. In addition, the files reveal that it has physical physics, a “wake-up effect”, its own sounds and even statistics. While the picture below makes it look small, it is actually 1.5x larger than the player.
Mysterious unreleased rock / comet / meteor thing, I have no idea what it’s going to be, but the codename “boulder”, and it has the physics, a “wake” effect and these stats and sounds.
And that’s 1.5 times the height of the player VAT! pic.twitter.com/fAYyDPpUrq

At the moment, it’s unclear what the thing is or how Epic Games will use it, but of course fans have their theories. And as some have noticed, the fact that dinosaurs and meteors appear in the files at the same time is quite suspicious.
