Fortnite Reloaded, which was launched on June 22, brought new life to Chapter 5 and attracted more than one million players at the same time in its first hour.
Despite Fortnite’s attempts to balance the introduction of vehicle-based gameplay with Nitro Fists and Boogie Bombs, Chapter 5 Season 3 got off to a rocky start as players were not satisfied with these new additions.
Despite this, the release of Reloaded mode, which is centered around the traditional gameplay of Chapter 2, is attracting a larger number of players to return to the servers.
Despite the existence of multiple official game modes in Fortnite, including Fortnite Festival, LEGO Fortnite, Rocket Racing, Zero Build, and Battle Royale, Fortnite Reloaded continued to attract a larger player base.
These numbers are similar to the surge of players that occurred when Fortnite Season OG was launched at the conclusion of Chapter 4.
The recently released Fortnite Reloaded game mode features ten squads (equivalent to 40 players) and a revamped map that includes both familiar and new POIs. The addition of unlimited reboots and Rifts in the sky allows players to experience a nostalgic twist on the Chapter 2 gameplay.
One of the main reasons players are drawn to Fortnite Reloaded is the various rewards that are up for grabs. These include a unique Victory Royal Glider and several fresh sets of challenges.

Many members of the community have referred to the new mode as the “rescuer”of Chapter 5 because of the overall dissatisfaction with the vehicle meta, as evidenced by the negative comments on the post.
“As one player on X exclaimed, ‘This is exactly why it’s important to listen to those darn sweats! My beloved game is finally back, and I couldn’t be happier!’ The player shared their excitement on Twitter at XenJCM’s post.”
“Another person stated that they were able to finish all the metaverse modes in under an hour.”
The game mode Fortnite Reloaded will continue to be available permanently, allowing players who prefer the original aesthetic to play it regardless of the current season. However, it remains to be seen what additional features will be added to the mode in the future, as only one set of challenges is currently available for players to complete.
