Fortnite is set to launch one of its most ambitious seasons yet with <a href="http://www.world-today-news.com/fortnite-chapter-2-remix-featuring-snoop-dogg-eminem-ice-spice-juice-wrld-and-more/" title="Fortnite Chapter 2 Remix: Featuring "Snoop Dogg," "Eminem," "Ice Spice," "Juice WRLD," and more!”>Chapter 2 Remix, an update that takes players to a new version of the iconic Chapter 2 map.
This remaster not only promises a return to nostalgic locations, but also introduces music icons such as Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Ice Spice and a promised tribute to Juice WRLD. Every week brings new challenges, unique items and customizations.
Snoop Dogg
In Week 1, Snoop Dogg takes control of The Agency, which is renamed The Doggpound. Players who explore this location and defeat Snoop will be rewarded with the mythical Snoop’s Drum Gun. Meowdas also returns to The Yacht, where he guards the Peow Peow Rifle, and TNTina makes her return to the oil rigs with the Ka-Boom Bow, an explosive weapon of remote mayhem.
Eminem and other artists in Fortnite!
Week 2 brings Eminem to the Grotto, a well-known location that is transformed with a nod to his iconic song “Mom’s Spaghetti”. Players who take up this challenge can win the mythical RG Minigun. In addition to the battle with Eminem, Week 2 introduces the new outfit Rap Boy Reloaded to the shop, allowing players to customize their look to match Slim Shady’s style.
In Week 3, Ice Spice makes its appearance on Shark Island, which is undergoing a metamorphosis into Ice Isle, a neon-lit shopping center that exudes a retro-futuristic atmosphere. Players who can defeat Ice Spice will gain access to her Ice Spice’s Grappler and Ice Spice’s Rifle. Her presence not only brings a challenge, but also new cosmetics such as the Rap Princess Outfit, complete with jewelry designed by Benny The Jeweler.
Week 4 concludes the season with a tribute to Juice WRLD at the new landmark WRLD Point, a memorable location where the season reaches an emotional climax. Players who log in between November 30 and December 1 will receive the cel-shaded Slayer Juice WRLD Outfit as an ode to the musical legend. A live event called Remix: The Finale will mark the end of the season and offer a festive ending with surprises for the community.
