The arrival of the Cube Queen was met with a lot of excitement from gamers. However, the excitement soon gave way to horror with the release of the short animated clip.

However, the scenario changes instantly and we are able to see several characters including Cuddle Team Leader and J.B. Chimpanski running away from something.
Soon, it is revealed that the Cube Queen's army of Caretakers are chasing them away from the island. Caretakers are the Cube Queen's strongest regiment and can easily outpower gamers.

The arrival of the Cube Queen will immensely affect the storyline. The destruction of the map will surely give way to the arrival of the next chapter in Fortnite.
