Leaked information on the new Fortnite Reload map

Many trusted insiders Loolo_WRLD and BeastFNCreative, with others like HYPEX have already started to share the information about the new Reload map.

The reported April 8 release date fits Fortnite’s Tuesday update schedule, providing credence to the claim—it’s only 15 days away from today, March 24, 2025, 12:52 PM IST. This will be the third map, following Venture and Oasis, which are both based on Chapter 1 memories.

Themes could come from Chapters 2, 3, 4, or 5, with a focus on the fan-favorite Chapter 2 Season 2. There is also debate about jungle or urban areas stirring things up.

Since Reload’s current maps rely heavily on Chapter 1, a Chapter 2-inspired twist seems like a natural next step.

Possible Chapter 2 Locations for Fortnite Reload map

Here are some leaked and rumored locations that fans can expect on the new map:

• Misty Meadows – Quaint and chaotic.
• Lazy Lake – Lakeside loot haven.

• Dirty Docks – Industrial edge.
• Steamy Stacks – Steamy showdowns.
• Holly Hedges – Suburban skirmishes.
• Craggy Cliffs – Coastal classics.
• Frenzy Farm – Wide-open warfare.

If Epic Games focus more on Chapter 2 Season 2, then you can expect mythic hotspots like The Agency, The Grotto, The Shark, The Rig, and The Yacht.

Fans and the Fortnite community are already begging Epic Games to drop The Grotto’s return and Eminem’s Spaghetti Grotto in Remix as well.

With almost two weeks remaining, we expect more leaks and information for the Fortnite Reload map in the upcoming days. We will make sure to keep you guys updated with all the latest news.
