During the latest round of Reddit AMA, the Fortnite developers from Epic Games have answered a fan’s question about the possibility of a respawn mechanic.
We’ve been considering this mechanic for a while and have been exploring it. Want to make sure we give it the time it needs and fully understand its impact on the game as a whole. Look for further updates during Season 8.
Fortnite’s recent competitor Battle Royale Apex Legends features such a mechanic since its release date.
With Fortnite Season 8 just around the corner, the developers are teasing the community with the promise of goodies! Seems like the upcoming season will give players a chance to dive into good ol’ piracy. Yaaarrr, matey!
‘X’ Marks The Spot
Treasure abound
Loot that has been lost
Can always be found.

Sssomething shimmers
Within the cave…
But beware of those
Who arrive on waves.
