Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 8 live event might replace grass with Cube shards

Based on a Chapter 2 Season 8 loading screen named Island, Corrupted, players were assuming that the entire Fortnite map will be flooded with Cubes. The loading screen further teased that the grass will be replaced by Cube shards and small Sideways bubbles.

Prominent Fortnite leaker and data miner HYPEX had talked about the spread of Cube corruption recently:

Having said that, severe Cube corruption hasn't yet taken place on the Fortnite Island. Epic Games has either scrapped the idea or it will happen during the upcoming live event.

Players must note that 'The End' is a one-time only live event. The playlist will be added thirty minutes before the scheduled start time. Players are recommended to jump in as soon as possible to catch the event.


What to expect from the Chapter 2 Season 8 live event?

The End live event will begin on December 4 at 4 PM ET, and loopers worldwide will have to take on the Sideways monsters and the Cube Queen. They will most likely be assisted by the likes of Dr. Slone and IO.

The Guava fort is IO's primary defense. From getting nuke missiles to building an army, Dr. Slone has left no stone unturned to counter the Cube Queen. During the live event, players will also face ferocious forms of Cube monsters.

Soon after The End live event, Fortnite will be shut down for two days, and normalcy will be restored on December 7 with Chapter 3. The new chapter is expected to contain a fresh map, new gameplay mechanics, weapons, skins, and more.

As of now, a Chapter 2 recap has begun in Fortnite. Every day, players will be able to recreate the memories from their favorite seasons in the ongoing Chapter.
