Fortnite Birds of Prey event: Chapter 2, Season 1 going out with a BANG

Fortnite developer Epic Games has dropped a huge hint about a potential end of season event in Battle Royale.

With the Fortnite season coming to an end in February, fans are waiting for the traditional finale to hit the multiplayer shooter.

Season 2 has a February 20 release date, so Epic will need to get its skates on if the promised two week event is to take place before then.

And judging by the studio’s latest tweet, it looks like the end of season event might have something to do with the upcoming DC film Birds of Prey.

It all started when Warner Bros posted a tweet of the Birds of Prey cast, captioned: “Name a better flock. We’ll wait.”

Responding to the tweet, the official Fortnite account said: “See you soon Harley ;)”

This seems like pretty conclusive proof that Epic will once again team with Warner Bros and DC for an in-game event.

It’s likely that details of the event will leak alongside the imminent 11.50 update.

The upcoming Fortnite update will launch at some point in early February, most likely on Tuesday, Feb 4.

The Harley Quinn Birds of Prey event will start shortly thereafter, and will likely run until the end of the season.

Update 11.50 will also usher in the move to Unreal Engine’s Chaos physics system, which should transform the way the game looks and feels.

“Beginning with the release of the 11.50 update in early February, Fortnite will be moving to Unreal Engine’s Chaos physics system,” Epic recently explained.

“At launch, the goal is to ensure that Fortnite still feels like Fortnite. Along the way there will be some bumps, so we’re starting tests with a small group of players. We’ll also closely monitor feedback and make improvements over time.

“With the addition of the 11.50 update, Chapter 2 – Season 2 is now expected to launch Thursday, February 20. Chapter 2 – Season 2 will feature with multiple . We can’t brief you on all of next Season’s secrets just yet…”

As for Birds of Prey, the upcoming comic book movie has a February 7 release date.
