"We've been waiting a really long time for Fortnite's Simpsons season, which has been rumored for what feels like a decade at this point. Finally, though, the time has come, and The Simpsons season is starting on the evening of Saturday, November 1. And it's one of the biggest Fortnite takeovers we've ever seen, with a Simpsons-themed battle pass, and entirely new cel-shaded map for Battle Royale, and a totally revamped loot pool--all for a season that lasts just a month."
"This Simpsons-themed battle pass, which lasts for just a month, includes five skins. Three of them are Simpsons characters--Homer, Marge, and Ned Flanders--with the other two being Simpsons-fied versions of Fortnite characters Peely and Fishstick. Each of the skins has alternate styles, like Evil Homer and Witch Marge. The new Peely is the time-gated bonus skin--all the Simpsons characters are in the linear part of the pass."
"The Chapter 6 island is gone, and it's been replaced with a slightly smaller map based on Springfield, the hometown of the Simpsons, which has a capacity of 80 players--down from the usual 100. The whole map is cel-shaded and full of well-known locations from the show, like Moe's Tavern, the Qwik-E-Mart, and the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant."
Fortnite's Simpsons season begins the evening of Saturday, November 1 and runs for one month. The season features a Simpsons-themed battle pass with five skins: Homer, Marge, Ned Flanders, and Simpsons-fied versions of Peely and Fishstick, each with alternate styles; Peely serves as a time-gated bonus skin. The pass costs 1,000 V-Bucks or is available via Fortnite Crew. Chapter 6's island is replaced by a slightly smaller, cel-shaded Springfield map with an 80-player capacity and landmarks like Moe's Tavern and the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant. Most weapons are existing guns, new Simpsons-themed items handle health and shields, and the new weapon Mr. Blasty is a revolver with an exotic variant. Influencers received early access and shared content, and additional surprises are possible during the season.
