<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\nFortnite’s collaboration with the Netflix series Stranger Things gets its biggest drop yet this weekend with five new skins in the item shop and a branded takeover of the Blitz Royale mode.<\/p>\n Blitz Royale, which has quick, five-minute rounds of battle royale on a tiny island, got an entirely new map on November 21. The new island features four named locations based on the town of Hawkins, Indiana, as well as a border right down the middle separating the normal world from locations that have been corrupted by the Upside Down–essentially giving the map a pair of distinct biomes, something that Blitz hasn’t done before since its map is already so little.<\/p>\n The map and the new item shop skins based on Vecna and the original four boys are the entirety of this takeover–there aren’t any new Stranger Things weapons added to the loot pool or anything like that. That’s fine, because between the ongoing Simpsons season and the imminent launch of Chapter 7, we’ve already got plenty of new mechanics to worry about.<\/p>\n Scroll on for looks at the full new map and each of the named locations.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
