The first in-depth look at Fortnite<\/em> Wilds, the battle royale\u2019s next massive update, is happening as a part of the Summer Game Fest lineup, Geoff Keighley teased today.<\/p>
Epic Games originally shared a Fortnite <\/em>teaser trailer<\/a> on June 6, providing a snippet of what’s to come. Keighley then confirmed<\/a> the world premiere trailer is happening on Thursday, June 8 at 2pm CT. The big Fortnite <\/em>reveal will be broadcasted on Twitch, YouTube, Twitter, TikTok, and the Summer Game Fest website. Streamers can also sign-up to co-stream the event. <\/p>
The update will then release on the following day.<\/p>
As with all season updates<\/a>, Fortnite<\/em> Wilds will drastically change the look and feel of the map. The teaser trailer showed what appeared to be a jungle being torn in half by an earthquake. It also had a mysterious Aztec-themed temple.<\/p>

This could mean there\u2019s a lot more to come in the update, and leaks lean toward the same suggestion too: Dataminer HYPEX has already uncovered a bunch of new features coming in Fortnite<\/em> Wilds<\/a>. The map will supposedly have a new Tropical Biome, along with a Desert and a Volcano. Players will also be able to mount Rideable Raptors until they run out of energy, suggesting it could take place in some kind of prehistoric era filled with dinosaurs.<\/p>
Hype is brewing more and more by the minute. Popular streamers like Nick Eh 30<\/a>, CouRageJD<\/a>, and SypherPK<\/a> couldn\u2019t contain their excitement, and they\u2019re not alone; the teaser has already been seen by close to a million fans.<\/p>
