According to numerous Fortnite leakers, a brand new 'pak' file for Holly Hatchery was decrypted, and within it a treasure-trove of new meshes was discovered. These meshes are unlike anything seen so far and will change the very landscape of Fortnite Season 7.
Towards the start of the new season, purple patches of land sprung up, following the alien invasion. It's now confirmed that, over time, an alien landscape will indeed cover the island.
Suffice to say, the first POI in-game has fallen to alien invaders. By the looks of it, massive map changes are already underway.

Fortnite Season 7 leaks reveal the first look of Holly Hatchery
1) Holly Hatchery gets retrofitted
After much anticipation, the Fortnite community got its first real look at Holly Hatchery, or at the very least, the assets that will make up the POI. Based on the Fortnite Season 7 leaks, it's pretty evident that a lot is going on.
The trees and soil surrounding the area have mutated and now resemble some sort of alien flora. In addition to the trees outside, many buildings have also been converted.
2) This is going to be alien versus predator all over again
Judging by the name "Holly Hatchery," it's pretty evident that the aliens are going to start growing an army on the island itself. To further back these claims, along with the meshes of the alien flora, objects resembling incubators are also seen.
While they could just be alien-looking objects, based on their appearance, they are definitely incubators. While they won't behave dynamically in-game, loopers can get a fair idea about what is going to happen in the area.
3) New alien creature or harvesting impact sound?
This is speculation at best. However, given that this location will be converted into an alien Hatchery, there are bound to be guards defending it. While the sound file has been decrypted, there is some debate about what it may relate to.
Some are under the impression that the sound is related to an alien creature found at Holly Hatchery, while others believe that it may just be the sound of harvesting noise that were decrypted.
