Transcripts

fortnite season 3 is chaos from new

mythics medallions vehicle upgrades

collab items pois there's a lot this is

everything you need to know and we'll

start with the massive desert biome

taking up half the map head to the

bottom left and you'll get to brutal

Beach head a massive cargo ship that has

crash landed on the sand at the front

it's shaped like a shark reminding us of

the iconic Prison from chapter 2 here

there are like five floors of lud along

with a throne at the top overlooking the

map this belongs to a brand new boss and

he's our tier 100 skin for season 3

introducing Megalodon yeah not the most

creative name but he is terrifying his

entire POI inste of Steed around sharks

it makes sense considering his name but

you should know sometimes he doesn't

even appear here if it feels like it

he'll just get in a car drive around the

map when madon is defeated he'll drop a

medallion giving you unlimited Nitro

while equipped and if you're wondering

this is a brand new type of consumable

in season 3 it boosts cars to give them

unlimited Fuel and gives players super

speed you're more likely to find it in

Nitro splash around the map a new item

that'll fill your veins with Nitro you

basically become the Kool-Aid man oh

yeah while you're Juiced up cars will

drive faster they'll Ram through players

and deal more damage as for yourself you

can clearly see it lets you move faster

and break their builds but it also lets

you sprint longer increases your reload

speed and removes fall damage it's

ridiculous and by the way you could also

run on

water The Medallion isn't even the

coolest thing to earn by defeating

Megalodon he drops a Mythic version of

of season 3's most powerful item Nitro

fists I'm not kidding what I say these

might be the most ridiculous item we've

ever had in fortnite the mobility is

over the top you can punch to move

forward or uppercut to go in the air it

is super versatile and if you're in a 1

V one you're basically guaranteed a win

so imagine this in Mythic form no wonder

players are scrambling to get their

hands on this and megalodon isn't even

done there not only do you get those

items but he drops a second Mythic the

return of the combat shotgun these are

back in fortnite and you can find them

in all types of Rarity but they are

insanely strong and trust me if you get

your hands on the Mythic version it's

going to tear enemies the shreds and I'm

still not done with what this guy drops

he might be the most overpowered way to

get loot in fortnite CU you'll also get

an exclusive vehicle that only unlocks

When the Dawn is defeated it has

unlimited Fuel and a grenade launcher

attached to the roof this means you can

boost for as long as you want as your

friend fires explosives at everyone best

part is there are repair boxes around

the map so you can keep the vehicle for

the whole match you'll probably need to

because season 3 is entirely designed

around cars it is almost impossible to

play without them everyone's driving

around and it all connects at the Nitro

drone this is a new Arena POI where cars

can battle to the death it's full of

powerups ramps and spinning blades it

makes fight super intense if you visit

on foot you'll come across another boss

ring Master scar she's PA seven in the

battle pass giving you a ton of car

themed items including a fire show

credit Styles is runer Scar and let me

just say how creepy the hyena helmet is

even laughing at her back bling but when

you take her boss out she'll drop a

crazy Medallion this one gives you

higher damage and unlimited ammo that

just sounds op but in a season where

most people are fighting in cars you're

going to need it especially when

combined with the Mythic crossbow this

is dropped by ring Master Scar and it

isn't your regular bow that we've seen

for years it's a new item called the

boom bow this is totally modable and

fires explosive arrows you can find

different Rarities all over the map and

it uses rocket ammo so pairing it with

the unlimited ammo Medallion is

necessary so why should you pick this up

when crossbows are notoriously bad in

fortnite they're not the best against

players but use the boom bolt against

cars and you'll realize how insane this

is over 250 damage per shot making it

one of the best anti-vehicle tools in

game right now maybe you would rather

drive well ring Master scar also has an

exclusive vehicle unlike megal on this

has a minigun on the roof so if you are

firing grenades it's a barrage of

bullets to make things worse the car has

un limited Fuel and ammo so getting in

this with your teammates will give you

one of the most busted experiences I've

ever seen of fortnite we got over 10

kills without even leaving the car there

is so much content in season 3 it's

unbelievable and that leads us to our

third major POI Redline rig this is a

Refinery pumping Nitro out of the ground

and providing it to the rest of the map

they even have pipelines spread

throughout the desert leading straight

to this place and it's run by a mechanic

known as The Machinist you'll find her

on page one of the battle pass with a

ton of wasteland themed items including

a Lego build and a sick wrench pickaxe

on the map she's defending Redline raid

from any Invaders and while the boss

battle is tough you are rewarded

handsomely if you're finding this video

helpful using Code t5g directly supports

our videos so thank you for that her car

is similar to ring Master scars but it

has a cool design and her Medallion is

super useful it refills your Shield

constantly over time basically handing a

siphon if you're wondering what th

chanja It's the Return of a classic item

from chapter 2 fortnite has brought back

the combat assault rifle and it's

currently the only one you could find so

expect to see the normal ones arrive

later on now all three of the major

bosses don't just spawn at their pois

every match one of them will decide to

leave their home hopping in a battle bus

and driving around the map in a convoy

this is a redesigned version of the

armor bus from chapter 3 this time known

as the war bus it has extra defenses on

the side and most importantly a new EMP

feature well driving it you could

activate the burst and it disables other

vehicles in the area it's perfect for

defending yourself and so with all these

new cars fortnite has decided to bring

back vehicle mods it has been a long

time since we had cow catchers and

chonkers tires and they have finally

returned along with four new attachments

that have been in the works for years

instead of throwing an item onto your

car these are now crates on the map and

driving through them will immediately

attach it to the SUV on the roof you can

get two different types of weapons

whether it's a grenade launcher or a

minigun the front bumper lets you choose

between a cow catcher and a spike bumper

this deals more damage to players and

objects if you ram them while the cow

catchers are just more defensive we all

know about choners tires and how they

make you drive off-road but there's

another option bulletproof tires way

better while driving you also notice

power ups whether it's a portal that

boost you through the air or fire pits

that work as geysers and so in

preparation for season 3 there's also a

new type of vehicle in the shop fortnite

is selling a behemoth SUV and this won't

replace the Whiplash anymore when you go

to your locker cars are now separated

between a sports car and an SUV SL truck

this also means you can now boost in

SUVs allowing us use the custom boost

effects we paid for but did you know

there's an item on the map right now

that players are freaking out over while

you're roaming there's a chance you'll

find a nuca cola and already thousands

of people just started screaming this is

the recognizable soda from Fallout the

biggest glab of season 3 so far drinking

it will give you 80 health and shield

over time making it way more powerful

than your average slurp juice the

crossover doesn't stop there the battle

pass includes the most iconic part of

Fallout power armor you can now wear the

t60 outfit for yourself and it's full of

details there is multiple edit Styles

and fans are going crazy over the back

bling we could finally run around with a

Pip Boy and it Cycles through all kinds

of info including how many alims you

have in the same page you can unlock an

animated Vault boy emoticon and my

personal favorite item the codsworth

emote that isn't the only character who

took took us by surprise The Secret

outfit is a Marvel villain Magneto is

here for some reason and to make him fit

the apocalyptic theme he's called the

Wast Lander Magneto they literally

equipped him with Rusty gloves just so

he doesn't feel out of place and I kind

of love it it set is currently hidden it

will be unlocked in 39 days but you

could grab one of the coolest outfits

right now with bright Raider this is a

reskin of bright bomber and fans are

loving it she has a pastel edit style

along with some interesting dance moves

but fresh content isn't just at the new

pois the sandstorm also changed half the

map snoody steps has gone after two

seasons but if this was your favorite

spot don't worry because it's not all

destroyed it's now Sandy steps and is

completely flooded with sand dunes and

rocks a lot of buildings are drowned in

the terrain but there's still a good

amount left if you want to drop here

before rotating into the Wasteland a

change no one was expecting is hidden on

the Southern Railway thanks to the leak

road map we already knew the whole theme

of the Season would be a sandstorm

apocalypse with Wasteland Warriors all

of this came true except one thing the

steam train look at it you can see a

giant carriage plowing through the sand

with smoke coming from the front so we

launched the game to check it out but

instead the train is crashed into the

sand dunes other epic scrap the idea or

we should expect it later this season

something we are already familiar with

is the new kind cacti probably thinking

you've never seen this before but if you

played during Wilds you technically have

these are basically like the slurp

plants from the old jungle just smack

them and you'll get health and Shi heal

useful tip this time they heal your cars

too they might come in handy if you're

about to win a game and this will bag

you the brand new victory umbrella this

time is themed around a scrap car but

right now it's currently impossible to

get for some reason winning gets you

last season's umbrella but that should

be fixed soon well driving around you'll

probably run into some NPCs because

there is a bunch for the new season not

only other standard ones selling weapons

or heals but some are previous bosses

curus and Oscar are back on the island

but this time they're friendly unless

you want their mythics that's right you

can still grab the gatekeeper or frenzy

Auto shotguns from them by challenging

them to a duel and defeating them but

you got to be quick because there's only

one per game one of the smaller changes

you won't notice this season is

something we have been asking to get for

the last two large crates have now been

doubled to a 20% spawn rate and finally

have a chance to drop Shields again the

best part about these was the heals they

gave until chapter 5 deleted it but now

you can officially find minis in them

once again season 3 runs all the way

until mid- August which means we have 3

months to play level up and complete the

battle pass soon we'll be getting a

tribeam laser rifle lethal company skin

and the Flint knock all covered in our

upcoming leaks video so subscribe right
