Out of all the limited-time modesFortnitehas done so far, Playground Mode appears to have been one of the most popular. In fact, its popularity has inspired Epic Games to create aversion that will be a permanent game mode, but while fans wait for that iteration, they will get another chance to try out the limited-time Playground Mode when it returns on July 25th.
The officialFortniteTwitter account made the announcement today that Playground Mode is returning on Wednesday, July 25th. The development team is taking fan feedback into account when presenting this new version of Playground Mode, which will offer more team select options and loot than the original.
This new version of Playground Mode will also feature the ATK golf carts that were added with the season 5 update. While shopping carts were technically the first major vehicle added to theFortnitebattle royale map, ATKs have far more uses as they are able to transport a full squad of four players at one time and their roofs can be used to bounce to higher areas.
It’s unclear how long this version of Playground Mode will stay inFortnite, but more information should come soon. Epic has promised more details in the 5.10 patch notes for the game, which should also reveal what else the next update will do.
In the meantime, fans have more limited-time modes besides Playground to look forward to this season. While we don’t know everything that’s coming, dataminers have found evidence that amode called Tactics Showdownis on the way. Official details are scarce, but apparently Tactics Showdown will put a cap on the amount of resources and ammunition players can carry, and will make it so player-built structures can be destroyed more easily. Based on that information, it sounds like Tactics Showdown will have more strategic gameplay than the coreFortnitebattle royale experience.
It’s unclear when Tactics Showdown will be added toFortnite, but fans can look forward to Playground Mode making its return on Wednesday, July 25.
Fortniteis available now in early access on iOS, PC, PS4, Switch, and Xbox One.
