Update: Fortnite is well and truly back, folks! You can now go ahead and enjoy the game's 'Chapter 2' on Nintendo Switch and other platforms; Epic Games has now uploaded the new trailer in an official manner (which you can check out above).


Original Article: Well, what do you know? It looks like Fortnite is safe and sound after all. The shock.

Yes, after the game literally evaporated into a black hole over the weekend, throwing its huge fanbase into chaos and confusion, it would appear that things will be returning to normal in the not-too-distant future. A new patch has become available to download on various platforms, and while any content it brings isn't actually accessible to play just yet, it does suggest that we won't have to wait too much longer.

On top of this, two new trailers which appear to have been planned to launch alongside the new update have been leaked ahead of time. As had been rumoured just before the black hole took over, the videos seem to show a brand new island with new characters, weapons, activities, rewards, and much more. We could well be looking at the biggest change the game has seen to date.

In case you're concerned about your V-Bucks and other items successfully making it over to Chapter 2, don't worry. Nintendo has assured fans that your in-game goodies are safe.

Are you excited to see what a new-look Fortnite will offer? Will you be dropping in for Chapter 2 - Season 1? Tell us below.
